Dinner Conversation
So a comment I wrote sorta turned into a ficlet and somebody suggested I bring it out here for easier access. I'm not a writer, so be nice, ok? It's just a ridiculous little thing.
No really, it's deeply silly.
Oh, and I think this can be considered mildly spoilery for Wilby Wonderful. And BSG. But, like, the mini.
( But really, if you don't know a lot of CKR characters, this won't be any fun, so you can safely skip it. )
Plus, I absolutely adore low expectations. *g* I'll keep my amateur status.
In any case, you are very sweet and generous. Thank you, dear.
But it is fun to see it in my head, you know? For example, the two Fic characters sorta fighting over Duck, each doing battle in his own way. It was fun to distinguish them from their alter egos, Ray and Billy. Fic Ray is at least a little bit open to something with Duck (whereas Ray probably wouldn't be). Especially when Fic Billy challenges him.
Fic Billy, of course, doesn't go at it directly, he gives Duck that look. That one. *points to your icon* He's stealthy and beautiful and overly polite, which on him seems decadent somehow. But because he's Fic Billy, sex reminds him of Joe, which makes him sad, then mad and avoidy.
And I've read a bunch of stories where either Ray or Fraser has been injured somehow, and they STILL HAVE SEX. Which I buy, when I'm reading it, but also makes me giggle a little. So I like the idea of Fic Ray giving Duck advice on that.
I think this kind of thing only works because CKR is a genius. All these guys are completely distinct from each other. Can't you see them each, individually, in your head? Don't they look and sound and act differently from each other? Now imagine a room full of...I don't know, Tom Cruise characters. See what I mean? It's 8 of the same damn guy. Talk about your Cylons...
