But then, Who does?; Blade Runner, Deckard (past Deckard/Rachael), PG

[yeomanrand]

New York is about the furthest Rick Deckard figures he can get from Los Angeles, short of going out into space. Something he never thought he'd consider.

But now, standing on a busy street, staring at a "Reward" sign stapled to the half-rotted dark wood of an old tree, he wonders if that might be a welcome fate after all. To see what Batty'd described.

Better than the automatic glance around the street, wondering if Gaff's nearby and then if he's even alive anymore, the quick dip of fingers into his pocket for a worn piece of paper, folded, silver, barely recognizable as what it once was.

No different than Deckard himself, if he's being honest. Something he's tried to be, since Rachael, with varying degrees of success.

All right. He's shit at it. But he tries anyway.

His fingers close gently around the origami in his pocket. If the creators can make such perfect replications of human life, why not the beast that's haunted his dreams.

His own time's coming up soon. He knows it deep in his bones, deeper than marrow. He looks for a street sign; he'd like to see her again, just once more.

To see, to touch, to smell, to hold. To wonder.

Thank you!

I knew when I saw it that I'd be writing either Blade Runner or Legend fic for it, but Deckard was the one calling to me. :)

Thank you very much!

It's one of my favorite movies, as well. And I'm really honored both that she liked it enough to recommend it, and that you enjoyed it. :)

I tossed this picture up with no expectations of what (if anything) I would get as a fill - and this is just absolutely amazing. As a child who was RAISED watching Blade Runner I can't even begin to tell you how much this fill MADE MY DAY!

Thank you! ♥ ♥ ♥

I am so profoundly glad to hear that -- even if it has taken me a while to get back to say Thank you! :)
