Drabble: Longing

[magenta-blue.livejournal.com]

*takes the plunge...*

The briefing is long and I try to focus, but I’d been at HQ since yesterday and it was beginning to tell. That is, until the door behind creaked.

I knew it was them, knew by the way the Controller twitched his lips, as if he longed to tell them off like they were children. Sometimes he forgot himself and did it anyway, and they’d respond like schoolboys, instead of men that fired guns.

They had the power to light up the room just by being there, even if the electricity they created was for them alone. Sometimes, I’d sigh…

Aw... our poor narrator! Is it Betty? I really like the way you described Cowley.

Could be Betty, could be Sally, could be any of the ladies! And thanks!

Oh, very nice! Love the pov... and they had the power to light up the rom just by being there - so them!

[magenta-blue.livejournal.com]

Heh! Cheers *g*

First drabble this, was fun! A great DIALJ idea!

[sc-fossil.livejournal.com]

A very good drabble. I liked the idea that even an outsider could see "something". Thanks.

[magenta-blue.livejournal.com]

Aw thanks! Yes, I do like that thought, nice to play with! :)

They really do light up the room wherever they go, don't they! Love the description of Cowley, lips twitching with the urge to tell them off - thank you!

[magenta-blue.livejournal.com]

Oh yes, they certainly do! And cheers *g*

Ooh nice. I'd like to think it was someone like Murphy, you know. But maybe that's just my slashy mind! Lovely stuff.

[magenta-blue.livejournal.com]

Heh! I didn't think of that, but of course, it could be Murphy, Anson, Jax... so many to choose! *g*

I enjoy a different POV, and this presents our lads so clearly - lovely drabble.

[magenta-blue.livejournal.com]

Aw cheers! Thank you *g*

Wow, great idea with the different POV. I do sometimes wonder how the others might perceive them. Power to light up the room indeed. Love it. Thanks for plunging *G*

[magenta-blue.livejournal.com]

Am glad I plunged! Cheers, I like to wonder about that myself... This is fun, isn't it?!

I adore 3rd person pov of the lads, and this is lovely, thank you!
Especially love that their electricity is just for each other!

[magenta-blue.livejournal.com]

I love your icon! Yes, 3rd person stories are lovely, there is a great one of some girl seeing them in a car park when Doyle needs an ambulance... *wanders off into the Circuit*

Oh excellent! I loved the electricity between them, but the thing that gave me most glee was Cowley's lip-twitch, which put him inside this special kind of aura. Oh that's a rubbish explanation. Too early on a Saturday! But I loved it anyway. ♥

[magenta-blue.livejournal.com]

Heh! I getcha anyway! Glad you liked it *g*

[empty-mirrors.livejournal.com]

Not easy when you're on the outside of a relationship like that. Thank you!

[magenta-blue.livejournal.com]

No, might make you rather wistful, I think. Cheers!

[nakeisha.livejournal.com]

Nicely done and intense.

[magenta-blue.livejournal.com]

Thank you so much!

[crimson-37.livejournal.com]

Oh this POV works wonderfully. I think it's because we know so much more than they may do. And them two are big kids, aren't they.

Thanks so much for sharing this with us.

Ye Gods - missed your comment by months! Thank you for letting me know you liked this little drabble :)

[moth2fic.livejournal.com]

Love the different pov. Great!

[magenta-blue.livejournal.com]

Thank you, and so sorry it has taken me so long to see this! I do appreciate your comment :)

[magnifica7.livejournal.com]

Outsider's POV - I like that! Well done! :)

[magenta-blue.livejournal.com]

Hello! Thank you for taking the time to comment :) Glad you liked!
