I think a tiny piece of my brain just broke

[tunasaladsonnet]

Xaldin and Xigbar do not cuddle on the couch in front of the fire.

I'm sorry. I just don't think they would. They don't strike me as the cuddly types. At the very least not with each other.

This is how I'm seeing an attempt cuddle in my head:

Xigbar: Get your facial fuzz out of my face, Sideburns McGee.
Xaldin: Get your person out of my near

Xigbar + Xaldin + hot roaring fire + couch = ...? Well, I'm not sure, but it may well involve marshmallows and will almost certainly give Vexen a headache. He doesn't even have to be in the room. By this point, he can sense "Xigbar and Xaldin are up to something". It's like a Spider-sense, but less useful.

Xigbar: Hey, fire!
Xaldin: Oh, gods...
Xigbar: Hey, I wonder if control over space extends to breaking the laws of thermodynamics...
Xaldin: Here, what if you--

Later--
Lexaeus: ...You achieved nuclear fusion in the fireplace.
Xigbar: *scorched* Yup!
Lexaeus: And that is why the fireplace, the room, and the tower are no longer there.
Xaldin: I'm almost positive I know what we did wrong.
Vexen: *facepalms*

Addendum: There's cuddling, and then there's cuddling. I can easily see them ending up curled up on the same couch by the fire after a long day in the hypothetical snow, with cups of hot chocolate/tea/cider/beverage of their choosing. And it would be kind of adorable and cozy and 'shippy. But the point is, they didn't plan on it.

...And then they get in a micro-fight about whose cold feet are stealing whose body heat. Because that's how they are.

In reply to Addendum: Again, I agree. This was straight up 'I'm-watching-you-sleep-in-my-arms-when-did-I-start-loving-you?-song-fic' cuddling.

From Xigbar's pov.

And then I hopped over here.

[cygna_hime]

Hahahahahaaaaah...no.

Xigbar's internal monologue, my version: "I'm watching you sleep in my arms and you're damn heavy by the way I think my arm is going numb you big lug gerroff." *tugs* And when he didn't wake Xaldin up but sighed and resigned himself to letting his arm go numb while he tied Xaldin's braids in knots with one hand, Xigbar realized this must be love.

...Link? This sounds hilarious. And possibly sporkworthy.

[tunasaladsonnet]

...while he tied Xaldin's braids in knots with one hand, Xigbar realized this must be love.

I lol'd.

Enjoy. I can't get past paragraph 4.

[cygna_hime]

Ohgods this is lulzy. I mean, as a sporking-to-be. Because the fun is watching them gape at the words and go, "Dude, not me. Do I sound like a 'lest' kinda guy?" "Also this person's ego is significantly smaller than most solar systems; it couldn't possibly be you." "Hey!"

I'm calling dibs right now.

[nilmiel_chan]

YESH PLEASE. The world needs more cygna-sporks. They make life happy and wonderful and full of teh lulz.

MAY I BRIBE YOU WITH SOMETHING?

[cygna_hime]

Certainly you may. I am always amenable to bribery. I'm easy like that. (Probably not for a while; I still have several sporks on the List of Doom to go through.)

[tunasaladsonnet]

YES. They'd be lounging on the couch, talking, and then everything exactly as you typed would happen.

I am srsly in love with that dialogue/snippet.

[cygna_hime]

See, these things didn't happen to Braig and Dilan. Mostly because Braig and Dilan had to obey more laws of physics, like the one that says you can't turn the fire into a very small sun no matter how much you want to. Their marshmallow-related hijinks, however, were epic.

This script is WIN and Saix on a Plane approves.

[sparkism]

ahahaha~ ♥
As far as I'm concerned, that's what all cuddling should result in. nuclear fusion. pffft. xD

[teal_deer]

... wow, I kind of want to gank this for an OrgLIX script...

[cygna_hime]

...I'd really rather you didn't. For one thing, I have a feeling it's going to become a fic.

[teal_deer]

Alright, alright. That and honestly I disagree with the characterization of everyone in that show BUT my character. *sigh* and even mine sometimes gets flanderized.
