Drabble "Pause"

Nov 27, 2006 14:18

Drabble for the ever delightful goldy_dollar, and her prompt of Inara being bored and becoming addicted to a video game. I'm pretty damn certain it's not what she envision. I don't even know quite what this is. But it's... something?

Mal. Inara.
Post-Serenity.
Not really fluffy, not really not.
Blergh. Very pointless and weird.

OMG!

I have *been* Inara!

*fond, fond memories of Tetris*

Oh how I remember my first experience, when a fellow at school informed me that if I played, I'd get addicted, and when I went to sleep that night I'd see little superimposed images of the blocks falling behind my eyelids. I scoffed! I played! And when I went to bed that night - gasp - there they were, little 'L' shapes and 'T' shapes and all the rest, falling, falling, falling....

Oh how I love tetris!!! *G*

hehehe *giggles so over this fic*
This was so cute and fun and utterly TRUE! *GRIN*
Heheheh... and of course, this night would be something they 'DO NOT TALK ABOUT' *G* and I could just see the crew all curious as to what went on in her shuttle that night, and of course, drawing the completely wrong conclusion *giggle* But they might just prefer that....

Yay for Rouka!drabbles!

Heh! I've been through the same, but for me the pimp was my very own grandma, hehehe! That dreaming effect is the most fun, isn't it?? :D

Bwah! I hadn't even thought of that. Of course, it's a little sad, or was supposed to be, but something tells me in the morning they'd feel weirdly at peace, both afflicted, both sleepy, both blah about the world... And they would SO preferr the raunchy rumors to the truth!

"I fell asleep while Mal played Tetris", just doesn't have that whole... coolness to it. *G*

Yay for Rouka!drabbles!

Thank you. :) It's nothing much, but I tried, so I'm glad. :D

It is! And the music, I can hear it now.... Of course you know I'm going to have to go home a play tetris now, and it's all your fault! One time my brother and I rented a two player tetris, with two screens at the same time, and you competed against each other... it was the coolest version ever, but I never saw it again after that time *is sad*

*eg* Yeah, not so much....
I wonder though, would they start to get competative? What happens when Mal reaches leve 25 before Inara??! And HIS name is in the highscore?? Inara will Not.Be.Pleased. I think *GRIN*

Thank you. :) It's nothing much, but I tried, so I'm glad. :D

It's lovely, and always so wonderful to see you writing something *hearts*

I'm so influential! Powerrrr!!

Never going to happen!! He's just no dexterous enough. And he knows she would kill him before she knew it, and then she'd be sorry and sad and he doesn't want that, I think. So. He'll always lose at 24 so they have something in common!

Me, in a fluffy mood? Whatever gave you the idea?

Awww, you're so cute when you get all powermad!! *G*

There only seem to be sucky versions of tetris on line right now, due to some lawsuits, so I didn't play as long as I would have, had I found a good version. :o/ But it was still fun... somewhere, I actually have a hand held oldschool electronic game that has tetris on it... I may have to dig it out....

Awwwww, fluffy!mal!! that's so sweet, but you know he would really be as competative as he could possibly be... and lord it over Inara if he ever did manage to beat level 24... you know it's true!!!

I dunno, really... nope, nothing fluffy going on around here... *so, I'm in denial, what do you want?* ;oD

You really should! It would be... coolness personified! :D

BUT not in the melancholy and sad Verse I built in this fic! There is fear and no communication and longing and loneliness. He wouldn't lord it over her when they're both so unhappy and stupid!

*so, I'm in denial, what do you want?* ;oD

How could I want for anything? Your denial benefits mine! :D

Oh, I forgot to look! I'll look tonight, because... I want to be cool ;o)

Okay, okay... in *this* melancholy verse, no, he wouldn't... *pats* there there... but in *my* verse.... ;o>

Mutual denial society *nods* that could come in handy. Always good to be a beneficial friend *G* Of cousre... I might deny that if I'm asked ;o>
