Characters: Lance, Brian
Prompt: 19 Dark
Rating: -
Length: short/medium
Brief summary: Brian tries to explain to Lance why his way of coping when things get too intense is very unhealthy for him. This is an intriguing story that gives a very different perspective on some of the things that has happened to our sparkly boys.

"The excess of emotion you're feeling - the emotion you're trying to get rid of - have you thought that it might be coming from outside you?" Brian isn't sure how to put it.

"Yes, but that's because I'm paranoid. Diagnosed and everything."

"No, I mean really coming from outside you."

"Yes. Are you not listening? Yes, I really believe that. And that's why I get the good drugs, because I'm deranged."

"Lance. I feel them too. And I can tell you for good and certain that they are coming from outside me."

"Oh. Um. Do you have a shrink?"

Brian laughs. "You can accept succubi as non-human beings who eat your emotion, but you can't accept that you might be able to feel other people's emotions?"

Prompt: 29 Oops

Length: short
Brief summary: Someone has given Lance a hickey. Style and content is closely entwined in this nearly all-dialogue, very fun little story.

He glared. "What do you want?"

"What, not happy to see me?" Nick demanded, blue eyes enormous with forced innocence.

"I'm not having a good day," he grumbled. "First Lance has a hickey, then no one fucking believes me, and Disney is brainwashing the old fogey, and the bastard comes in wearing a turtleneck, and then you show up..."

"Whoa, whoa, whoa." Nick cocked his head. "Lance has a hickey?"
