Ode to a Lemsip

[callistosh65.livejournal.com]

"Sit up and wrap your hands around this."

Doyle blinks himself semi-upright and stares at the mug.

"Wrap 'em around something else, if you like."

He tries a leer, but what with the watery eyes, unwashed hair and red nose, it's not a particularly tempting offer.

Bodie thinks about actually petting him, but he can wait.

Twenty minutes later, the Lemsip is in, and Bodie has a furnace plastered to his ribs.

"Always so cold," slurs Doyle, pressing into his neck. "'S nice."

Bodie sighs, squeezes, all mock sufferance.

Truth be told, he rather likes a Doyle on Lemsips.

Awww sniffly, feverish Doyle is very alluring :D I'm very excited to know you're scribbling the lads. They're nicely in my head now (I've been having a reading marathon - it was 'Into the Fire' this morning btw)... just got to get 'em on paper now.

[callistosh65.livejournal.com]

Thank you. There is smth about them being out of their heads that is irresistible, isn't there? Love writing them all sniffly and needy.*g* And yay!!! Delighted to hear about your reading marathon; now go get yer BB skates on, petal.

Aww, snuffly cuddly Doyle, high on Lemsips - you're pushing my happy-buttons, babe!

[callistosh65.livejournal.com]

Thank you - I am delighted to push your happy buttons!

[murphybabe]

Awww, that's made me all warm inside too! Thank you for cheering up my day.

[callistosh65.livejournal.com]

You're welcome - thank you, I'm pleased you liked my sniffly, out of it Doyle.

[hambelandjemima.livejournal.com]

Lovely visuals. I like this one very much ♥

[callistosh65.livejournal.com]

Aw, thank darlin'. I do enjoy imagining a snuffly Doyle with his defences down.

"watery eyes, unwashed hair and red nose, it's not a particularly tempting offer" This would tempt me! *g*
Wonderful drabble!

[callistosh65.livejournal.com]

Yeah, Doyle in any state is pretty tempting:-) Thanks for reading.

[ancastar.livejournal.com]

Hee! I do so love a ratty Doyle and an indulgent Bode. You write the guys like no other.

[callistosh65.livejournal.com]

Aw, thank you. I'm really pleased you liked this, hon.

[dawnebeth.livejournal.com]

You had me at feverish Doyle. However, what is lemsips?

[callistosh65.livejournal.com]

Lemsips are like Tylohot, I think? A flu fever reducer that tastes like hot lemon. Thanks, D. a feverish Doyle is always good:-)

[heliophile-oxon.livejournal.com]

This is adorable (so I think I'll just sit here for a bit, adoring it *g*).

[callistosh65.livejournal.com]

Aw, thank you. Glad you enjoyed it!

*looks up lemsip in German wiki* *doesn't find it* *looks up lemsip in English wiki* *is now educated* *likes the story very much*

[callistosh65.livejournal.com]

Heh. The magic of Lemsips. Thank you for reading!

[siskiou.livejournal.com]

In reality a sniffling, feverish Doyle should not be alluring, but he is, especially cuddling up to nice and cool Bodie! Thanks for writing!
I was another one who had to read up on "Lemsip", and I really want one (was perfectly fine all day yesterday, but now have a raging sore throat).

[callistosh65.livejournal.com]

Lemsips were always the go-to drink when anyone in our family had flu. Just seemed fitting to recycle them here for Doyle:-) Thanks, I'm chuffed you enjoyed this.

Oh, and feel better soon!

[jessebee.livejournal.com]

Well, you just made my day with that little bit of adorableness! Poor Doyle....

[callistosh65.livejournal.com]

Thank you, I'm pleased you liked it.

[kiwisue.livejournal.com]

Awww, this is nice *g*.

[callistosh65.livejournal.com]

Thank you:-)

[etain-antrim.livejournal.com]

I repeat from above--you can't lose with a feverish Doyle. Particularly if there's a long suffering Bodie at hand to help.

[callistosh65.livejournal.com]

Yup, feverish Doyle and long suffering Bodie are two of my favourite things.

[cornishcat.livejournal.com]

Oh, I love it when poorly lads are nursed by patient (or not) partners. *g*

[callistosh65.livejournal.com]

Heh. Me too! Thank you for reading, I'm glad you enjoyed this.
