it's wacky wildcard wednesday!  
... technically. Okay, so I signed up for part of the D/D fortnight extravaganza because I love you guys, and I wanted to be a part of this amazing part of the fandom. But here's the thing: I'm actually not very good at, you know, making things. Or, scratch that, I'm excellent at making things badly, but y'all deserve better than that. So, here's what I can do:


One Sentence Stories!
 


That's right, guys, DeWitt and Dominic are so fucking badass that they can pull off rainbow text. Don't you wish you were that cool? Anyway, woo! Have at 'em, and feel free to link people over so that they can play too! The rules are simple; you've probably played before. For those who haven't:

1. It's like a micro-fic! Tell a story about our favourite BAMF HBICs.
2. Make sure it's one sentence long. The sentence can be as short or long as you want, though.
3. Hit post!
4. Lather, rinse and repeat!

Commenting on other people's stories is a-okay! You can do this in one of two ways:
Example One: I love you and you're awesome!
Poster A: Adelle LOL'd!
Poster B: This is good, yay, have my babies, etc.

Example Two: It's a WIP!
Poster A: Adelle LOL'D!
Poster B: So did Dom!
Poster A: Then they bought a boat!
And the story continues, woo!

Join me? Jump in, have fun! On your mark, get set, write!

THIS IS DIFFICULT, WOMAN!
Here's an attempt of this one-sentence fic:



Adelle realized that the vodka wasn't enough for her and Laurence, but instead of sharing, she downed it in one gulp and kissed him so at the very least he'd have a taste of it--from her lips.

DITTO ON THE DIFFICULT! (But also awesome fun times!)
The Attic, she's been told, locks one in their worst nightmares, and she wonders sometimes if she might be keeping him company there; God knows it wouldn't lack symmetry.

The elevator doors ding! open, and they step out in tandem as usual; never mind if his tie is a little crooked, her hair a little mussed, smirks a little too pleased for routine talk of business.

Just between you and him, he's glad he missed the vodka; he is really, truly, monumentally goddamn sick of tea.

She never became accustomed to the way Mr. Langton walked beside her.

Probably because he did just that, walked beside her instead of one step behind.

He comes back from the Attic intending to kill her and instead he kisses her, and it's utterly ridiculous how neither is at all surprised.

She tells herself it's the inconvenience of having to get used to Mr. Langton as her new head of security, that the time she and Mr. Langton spend until they can anticipate each others reactions is time wasted; but the truth is, the annoyance she feels is because she misses him.

She's pale - almost gray, blood seeping slowly through the bandage on her side - and he shouldn't care, he doesn't, but she's been unconscious for nine hours and he's still sitting here, keeping watch.

Despite Dominic's protests that the Baltimore cop-turned-detective looks nothing like him, Adelle smiles, sips her tea, and can't help but play with the thought of what her life could be like with two Laurence Dominics.

There were times when Adelle mourned the safe dependability that had encapsulated her little trysts with Roger, because navigating anything with Laurence after everything they'd been through was infinitely more complicated.

While Topher had his drawer of inappropriate starches (and really, everyone knew about that, as he couldn't keep a secret to save his life), Adelle DeWitt's secret drawer was just that: A secret, a secret full of a rainbow like array of expensive, silk ties.

He swallows down his hatred and anger and he follows her, even after all she's done to him, because there is nothing else in this world left for him to do; even before the end, there was only her.

i am at least 85% sure this is gramatically correct
She can remember some of the most fleeting details (the number of suits he owned, how he'd called her by her name when they'd put him in Victor's body, even how he took his coffee) but still occasionally forgets that he's gone and she turns to address him though he's not there or almost calls Mr. Langton by his name before she catches herself.

It's not until several months later, when the vodka is gone and the House she built lays in ruin, that she realizes that he was the best Head of Security after all.

She was becoming increasingly adept at slowing her out of control exhalations into even breaths in the five seconds between the completion of their fall and the elevator doors opening.
