Drabble Tree Challenge

[hambelandjemima.livejournal.com]

 Following on from corvidology(because someone has to). This starts with 'stupid'.

Bodie might not mean to say this. But he means what he says :D

“Stupid and moronic? That amounts to the same thing, doesn’t it?”

 

“You know what I mean, you dumb crud. What were you thinking? What if I hadn’t—?”

 

“But you did, Ray.”

 

“Yeah, but what if—?”

 

“What if? Listen, mate, I’ll argue with Cowley the rights and wrongs of sending us on assignments. I’ll challenge Macklin to a one on one with no holds barred. Hell, I’ll even book myself a psychiatric evaluation with the lovely Dr. Ross. But I will never ask ‘what if Ray hadn’t been there?’ because it will never happen, sunshine. You’ll always be there.”

Hmm...looks at name in same line with stupid *ponders* :D

Actually, its lovely and romantic and VERY much in character... I have to admit that the combination of those things is where the "melty spine" bit lies for me! ♥ from a puddle of goo...

I was a bit worried that I might have gone Too Far with Bodie there (oo-err, missus) as it's gone midnight here and I really should be in bed instead of playing, so I'm glad you think he's still in character :) <--- sentence is too long, but you'll get the general gist of it, I'm sure *g*

*scoops up puddle of goo and deposits it in Drayce's LJ*

Thanks sweetie :)

I can just hear Bodie saying those words. Such trust in his partner. It is lovely to know that someone will always be there for you.

I really enjoyed that. Thank you.

Trust is one of my 'things' with the lads. I have to know they're there for each other.

Glad you enjoyed it. Thanks! :)

This was just so nice. I love my lads relying on each other. Thanks.

[hambelandjemima.livejournal.com]

Oh, they do :) Thanks for reading!

*Melts into a wobbly puddle* I love it how much they rely on each other and never have any doubts about the other being there. *happy sigh*

[hambelandjemima.livejournal.com]

Me too. And sometimes it needs to be said. :)

Aaaaah, lovely!

Is this the romantic moment that you were feeling so ashamed of? Or is there something deeply sappy I haven't got to yet? Because this doesn't feel overly slushy - it's pitched just right. Just a wonderful little moment of acknowledgement of what is between them. :D

The romantic one is the one before this. draycevixen outed me, the little minx :D
Thank you :)

I think she may have gone ♥ romantic ♥ to counter-balance me. I have that strange affect on people, I can't figure out why... *bats eyelashes*

[hambelandjemima.livejournal.com]

Face it, you just have a strange effect on people - it doesn't need categorising ;)

[callistosh65.livejournal.com]

Not overly romantic at all. You kept enough bite there in the tone of it, so it worked nicely - well done!

[hambelandjemima.livejournal.com]

Thank you very much. It's nice to hear :)

[halotolerant.livejournal.com]

This rings very true and has great pacing. I am swiftly getting addicted to this drabbletree thing! :D

[hambelandjemima.livejournal.com]

Thank you :) And I'm hoping tomorrow starts another drabble weekend here. Any chance you could join in?

[halotolerant.livejournal.com]

Oh, I hope so! Last weekend was utter massacre as far as my free time went, but this weekend has a few nice clear periods! :D

I like all your drabbles in this challenge, but I felt a bit foolish at the thought of spamming you with comments as I'm currently too sleepy to be very original. Suffice it to say I still love the way you write the boys :D

[hambelandjemima.livejournal.com]

Oh good. drayce thinks she has Ducky hooked and we're trying to persuade Vic to join in too. Should be fun :)

You can spam me all you want, but I know what you mean, lol. I really ought to be heading off to bed myself. :D
