today's drabble - Who's the Pussycat?

[wren_kt7oz]

Okay - today's effort was based on the trigger words lion, three, store


Who's the Pussycat?


It’s funny how people still seem to see him as some innocuous little kitten who has to be protected from the dangerous man-eating alley cat. They haven’t felt his claws. Or his bite. He’s definitely a damned tiger. Or, with that fucking mane, maybe a lion.

So when he decides to go to the store at three in the morning for some shit he just has to have for breakfast, it’s not because I think he needs protecting that I go with him.

It’s because I know if I “make” him go alone, he’ll make me fucking suffer for days.

Nobody knows Justin as well as Brian does. I'm so enjoying your drabbles. Thank you for sharing your talent with us. ♥

Thank you very much. And ITA about the Brian knowing Justin thing. Fanfic often focuses on how well Justin knows Brian, but I think the opposite is true also, and I think it's what makes them work. They're "onto" each other - Justin sees through the whole 'asshole' persona and Brian sees right through the sweet little blond twink thing. *g*

That's so true. Fanfic is full of references of Justin knowing just how to handle Brian, and not to take that away from the boy genius at all, but it seems as if Brian's sensibilities toward Justin are mostly glossed over and his 'cluelessness' is played up.

I so enjoyed this drabble because, to me, it spoke of Brian's capacity to put Justin before himself. Not just his desire to do so, but his being able to do it and willingness to do it, which are, for the most part, rare in fanfic.

They're definitely onto 'each other'; it's not a one-way street that Justin cruises alone. And it does make them work.

I'm so happy to have recently discovered you and your beautiful treatment of this love story. We're on the same wavelength. ♥
