Last two drabbles from meme
These are the last two request from the Drabble Meme. toujourspret and wiliqueen, I don't know if these work, but it's an attempt. If they're not up to par, I can try new ones. :-)

Tell Me of My Unthrifty Son
Slings & Arrows (for toujourspret
by Amy L. Hull
"Don't tell me that boy of ours is doing that ridiculous drama again!"
Clattering pans almost obliterated mother's quiet "Yes."
"Who is he this time? Another poofter?"
"Harold, it makes him happy...he hasn't smiled like that since he was a toddler."
"Mark my words, he'll come to no good staying with this foolishness."
"I'm sure he'll grow out of it. And anyway, it's not like he can make a living at it."
Listening at the top of the stairs, Oliver knew he would make a living and a name for himself ...and that mother and father would never understand it.

Will Be Horribly In Love With Her
Slings & Arrows (for wiliqueen
by Amy L. Hull
Halfway through rehearsals, Geoffrey and Ellen began full-on making out starting at the kiss.
Tech week Ellen slapped him at, "Peace, I will stop your mouth."
For the first preview they managed a real kiss.
At the third, Oliver's Don Pedro had to ask twice, "How dost thou, Benedick, the married man?"
At the fourth, their hands were inside one another's costumes the entire final dance.
The show before opening, when Leonato only got their attention by saying, "Let us have a dance ere you are married," the company locked them in a dressing room before heading for the pub.
