100 words of senseless kindness

Jan 09, 2007 20:05

Title: Non-Random Acts
Rating: PG-13
Prompt: #99, kindness
Fandom: WNBA (professional sports)
Pairing: Tangela Smith/Tamika Williams, Minnesota Lynx
NB: 2007 season, thus projected future!fic slightly.

"Why are they booing me?" Tangela asked plaintively after the Sun-Lynx game.

Tamika shook her head. "Because you're not a Gopher."

"But what's wrong with me?" Tangela tried to keep the whining edge out of her voice, but it didn't work.

"Absolutely nothing, Tangie. Half the people who came out here don't care about the WNBA, just their girls. Don't worry, though. I love ya." Tamika smiled. "Need a ride home?"

The name was achingly familiar, and it *was* the first act of kindness Tangela'd known in Minnesota…

The second came a few hours later, at Tamika's. So did Tangela.
