I almost fucking drowned like Che trying to cross a fucking river today. My childhood asthma hasn't worked up for years and fucking years, but idk maybe a wave hit me too hard or something. You could see the look on my friend's face where he was trying to decide if he would give me CPR if it ever came down to it. Don't worry about man kisses dude, just let me die.

So I heard Indy Jones sucked balls from many people. Looks like Speed Racer is going to reign supreme until Dark Knight comes out, bitches. For you haters out there I have two words for you: fucking pistol whip.

Okay in celebration of not being dead:
Give me two chars (one of them should be mine, lols) and a song and I'll choose a specific lyric or verse from that song and write a drabble inspired by it.

And yes you can request multiples!

	I thought 'Iron Man' was the reigning movie, if not 'Narnia.' Speed Racer bombed compared to them. Also, allergy/sinus/asthma season seems to be really bad this year, at least on my side of the country. (And can I ask for a drabble, or even just what song lyrics it'd be.) (Reply to this) (Thread)

I didn't actually see 'Speed Racer' so it seems I have no argument without quoting the critics.

YAY DRABBLE! Erm... seems like you already have a lot to write... and I honestly unfortunately can't think of any characters we really had interact long enough except Gawain/Katie.... aaaand you pretty much hate all songs I've ever known.... Ever heard of Imogen Heap? Blessid Union of Souls?

Tell me are you scared of rejection. Cause every no leaves room for a yes.

Truly there wasn't very many things Vaudeville wouldn't do for attention. Elle was easy. Well, she was usually easy. All he had to do was sit down at her table, mutter something about another woman's ass and then mention how maybe one day if Elle tried hard enough she could make her fat ass look that good, too. He would watch her blood boil, her eyes flash with a sort of insanity he pretended to have but could barely touch and then she'd unwittingly give him all the attention he needed.

But, this happened after all of this. After the bickering, the violent kisssing in the elevator and all the usual fun that followed. But, after all of that was said and done they were reduced to humans. Reduced to people who were stuck in the same room together, itching to leave because of the things they were afraid they might accidentally say. Once, a long time ago, he had slipped up and managed to voice some sort of sentimentality he probably shouldn't have. Elle's eyes lit up then, but not like when he called her names, they had lit up with a sort of primal fear of a jungle cat faced with another after years of climbing trees and killing all alone. And instead of doing what a normal girl would do, she just laughed. Straight for the fucking jugular.

Now it wasn't long before the sun would be up and both of them had business at the compound, but neither of them wanted to go together. Lazz made a silent promise not to let their nights run so late, but all that pre-bickering took so much sweet time. "Fucking shit where did I put my gun." Lazz had just finished retying his bowtie and putting on holster before he realized his gun was missing.

"Fuck if I know." Elle's voice rang from the kitchen. She had a way of possessing every room of the apartment at the same time.

"Well be a dear and look for it for me?" Lazz called back, knowing full well she wouldn't. He could just see Elle look around the kitchen, shrug and then right on cue-

"Sorry, eating cereal is more important than looking for your pussy pistol."

Vaudeville exhaled and made the conscious decision to swiftly step over the line. "Could you please be a worthless cunt on someone else's time? Thanks, sugar baby." He smiled at his reflection as he imagined the look on her face and was significantly satisfied with the bitch fest that followed. It was so much easier to push her away and storm out than say something he might have actually meant.

I am thrilled that you are not Going To Die. Sounds like that flash flood shit we have to do all the time in April, what the fucking fuckery.

Also: http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=a9yDCK-Pjk8

IN OTHER NEWS, YOUR DRABBLES? I don't want you to feel like you have to do a specific one, so I'm going to just choose three and have you choose one out of the three? That way, I can sleep better at night.

Kilroy and Nate to "Geek," MC Chris; Trance and Cake Walk to "Stay Free," The Clash; Nero and Emma to either "Step Into My Office, Baby" or "Dear Catastrophe Waitress," Belle & Sebastian. (I don't know why I had to choose the two consecutive songs on that album, but it felt right?)

And the sun went down, it never seemed to rise. Ah but now youre here
With the light shining in your eyes

Gawain didn't normally do field work, but as Death Eater incidents started to become more frequent his own Aurors were starting to question his abilities. He didn't want to throw around his weight, he really didn't, but if that's what it took to gain their respect then fine. When Emily caught word that he was going to go try and track down one of the more notorious Death Eaters she tried not to seem concerned. Until now she hadn't seen him so humorless, so fucking tired, so old. Of course her sympathy went out to him and she would allow little glimpses of it when they drank together after work, but now sometimes he wouldn't even show up. He'd make some excuse about paper work, give her a look like he just wanted to be alone and send her off to brave the dark, wet streets alone. She was sick of it. Even when they were in training he didn't pull shit like that. Even when they fought it was just part of another little game.

But, Gawain was too blind to see that he was hurting her. Sure, part of him wanted her to just baby him, force him into her company and then only leave when one of them had a job to do. He had made a point to have her at the meeting when he handed out assignments and then mentioned in passing what he was going to do. Despite himself he looked right into her eyes and waited for a verbal protest, but it didn't come. She must have been in shock, he reasoned to himself, and that didn't mean he was going to give her a second chance to try and stop him. Gawain purposely reworked his schedule so she wouldn't see him. Not once. If she tried to storm into his office it would be empty, dark and cold.

Emily had, though. Later, a day after he made his idiotic announcement, she threw his door open and felt something twist in the pit of her stomach when he wasn't there. He was supposed to be there, right there behind the desk and how was she supposed to keep him from killing himself if she couldn't keep an eye on him? In the days following she didn't storm his office anymore, but every time she heard something that was similar to his laugh or saw a flash of dark hair that might be his, she had the urge to chase after it. Except Emily knew that it wasn't him and she hated that he could just erase himself from the equation so quickly like a plug in a drain.

Gawain stumbled into his office the next week, his jaw, torso and arms all bandaged up from what could only be described as a botched mission. He was rusty and nervous, which the Death Eater picked up so quickly it was a fucking wonder he got out of there alive. The smart thing to do would be stay in the hospital bed until he was stronger, but Gawain wasn't ashamed of his failure anymore. He just wanted to win this war, he just wanted to do something else with his life.

The first thing he did was look for Proudfoot. She wasn't there yet, well, maybe it was for the best. Something childish in him thought that he could just avoid her forever if he tried hard enough. He didn't care about what the other Aurors thought, but her opinion was valued more than anyone else's even if she didn't really know it. And yet, he set himself up for her to find him that day. He sat in his office, he bullshitted in the break room, he looked for a flash of her dark hair and listened the sound of her voice, but knew it wouldn't be her.

In fact, by the end of the day he had just decided to let it go. She was busy. He was probably responsible for that. He was looking for something he wasn't going to find. A little after a lonely dinner down at the cafeteria, Gawain was in the evidence room getting work done that no one wanted to do while he was gone. It was calming in a sense. He missed the little room even if he wouldn't tell anyone. Then, with a flash of bright light into the dimly lit space, he squinted to see her figure in the doorway and all but gasped.

Emily had her guard down. She heard he was back, but he was hurt so there was no way he was still around this late. When her eyes adjusted and saw just how bad the damage was, she couldn't help but whisper his name. As it came out her mind tried to stop it, cover it up with his last name or maybe an insult, but it was too late.

"Proudfoot." He responded, trying not to look elated and a little bit frightened at the same time. She hated that he always managed to think on his feet so quickly. There was a small silence between them and she thought about closing the door, but was afraid of what would happen if she was alone in a room with him this late.

"So you're back."

"Yep."

"Did you fight a Death Eater or fall down a flight of stairs?"

"Thanks for the sympathy, really."

"Is that what you want? Walking around the office looking like a rotting mummy?"

"I don't need it." He waved his hand in dismissal and then stepped towards her. "Want to see the scar the hex left? It's great." Gawain had a way of making people instantly comfortable if things got too tense, but truthfully this skill was starting to get to Emily. The more comfortable and closer he got, the harder it would be to push him away.

"Battle scars are only impressive if you won."

"Did I said impressive? I said great. It's fucking great." He pulled the bandage from his chin to reveal something that looked like a crescent moon. "They had to shave my beard to take care of it. I was pissed, but I guess I couldn't show it off with a beard." He was close enough for her to smell his cologne. She didn't ever want to admit it, but she had missed it. Which meant she missed-

"I've seen better." She smiled, ran her thumb across the scar and then looked up to him. And suddenly all the things that had gone wrong with him were gone. Her touch, her voice and that fucking look just tugged it all out of him. Emily saw the change, his eyes softened even in the dim light and they shared another small silence, though this one had some sort of silent understanding.

"If you give it a name I'll buy you a beer."

"How about Luna?"

"I can live with that." He leaned into her touch and gave her a smile that was more like a dare. It made her want to tell him not to do things like that. She didn't want to be caught in another one of his traps. So instead she pressed her thumb against his chin to make him wince away from her with a healthy helping of curse words.

"Don't do that again." Emily smirked, Gawain laughed and they left for the local muggle bar.
