*takes deep breath*
Oookay, I'm feeling a little nervous about this.
Today is - SAY HALLOWEEN AND I'LL KICK YOU IN THE SHINS - the Fabulous Jojo's birthday, obviously. I adore that woman! Met her first when I'd had this lj for, like... a month or so? Been clinging ever since. (I meet someone I like? I cling. Nothing to be done about it.) There's no LJ without her. :D And what I've thought for her is so depressingly obvious that I had to try and surprise her in some other way. ;P
Title: We're In This Together No Matter What
Fandom: Liquor series! ...hey, you can stop groaning now, you know.
Characters: Rickey and G-man
Rating: Oh, mostly G - a hint of PG at the end?
Notes: Later. Heh.
As usual, click on the miniature pics to see the whole thing. :3
Okay, so this probably wasn't that much of a surprise, was it, Jojo-love? If anything, I've tried not to be too obvious about the choice of the scenes - there is a reason I went on and on (and on and on and on) about Woofer alone. :P Though, I have to admit, keeping my mouth shut about G-man laughing himself sick at Rickey and Lenny has been a PAIN. That's easily my favorite moment of Prime. (and the drawing I like the least. Seeing how young G-man seems to be about to die of boredom, that's saying something.)
And... well (this is going to sound familiar :D), that's my way of trying to say Thank You. For one hell of a lot of things, you know? And you're probably not aware of a lot of them. No, of course I'm not planning on enlighten you any - I embarrass myself often enough without doing it on purpose. :P
Now? Life should better bring you GREAT THINGS already.

The Value of X Then today he had turned around in math class and seen the look on Gary's face, a look he'd never seen there before, a look he could interpret in only one way. It wasn't the look itself that kicked him in the ass, exactly. It was the thought that, if he didn't do something, Gary might eventually look at another person that way. This was an idea Rickey could not stand, not under any circumstances. He still wasn't sure exactly what he was going to do, but he figured he would recognize his chance when it came to him. -page 18- | Version without glasses! |
Liquor "That big fucking pork chop. He wants to talk to us, he can call us himself. Not some manager, like, summoning us. That pissed me off." "It did," said G-man. "It really pissed him off." "Lenny's kinda big-business that way," Anthony admitted. "He don't think about the effect. But listen, if he called you himself, would you talk to him?" "I don't know," said Rickey sullenly. "Maybe." Behind his back, though, G-man gave Anthony a thumbs up." -page 100- | |
Prime Even his knife on the cutting board sounded defensive somehow. G-man kept feeling Rickey's eyes on his back. After thirty minutes of silence, Rickey said in a small voice, "Are you really mad?" G-man turned to look at him, fully intending to say yes. Instead he pictured Lenny's hairy arms wrapped around Rickey's waist and started laughing again. At first Rickey smiled hopefully; then, as G-man kept glancing at him and going off into fresh gales of laughter, he began to scowl. Finally he demanded, "What's so goddamn funny?" "You!" G-man gasped. "And Lenny! Waltzing around the kitchen—so retarded—sorry—but oh my God, Rickey, it was hilarious!" He caught his breath, took off his glasses, and wiped his eyes. "Clash of the titans," he concluded, and nearly set himself off again. -page 185 (but the good stuff starts at page 181)- | |
Soul Kitchen "We'll go back there soon," G-man promised. He put a hand on the side of Rickey's face and tilted it up, kissing him lingeringly. Rickey's arm tightened around his neck. They were so good together, always had been. "I'll help you any way I can," G-man said. "You know I'd do anything for you, Rickey." "I know it," Rickey said a little huskily. [...] -page 118- |

on 2006-11-01 10:01 am (UTC)(You don't need to lie about Gary, you know. :P If THAT was what Mrs. Reilly had seen, I honestly doubt she would have wondered about anything :P)
(ALSO! I was rereading Value, and do you think G's boss at the Pirate Lafitte might be the chef Dirty King met when he was a little boy, out with his family at Escargot's?)
(...)
(Yeah, I'm a lost case.)
You know, for the last one I was uncertain between that passage or the one right before, when G gets in bed and molds himself to Rickey's back. You know, the phrase "this was his man, the center of his life" made me melt a little on the inside. In fact, I've been uncertain until the last moment. Which one would you have liked best? (there was no way of asking you that before without giving myself away, and I have to know :P)
And... oh, I'm just SO GLAD you liked it. :D And it still is nowhere near what you would actually deserve. ;)
*CLINGS*
I LOVE YOU!
P.S.: Oh, the Liquor one was easy - is Prime that just didn't want to come out right. :P
