Fic: Between the Brushstrokes
Title: Between the Brushstrokes
Characters/Pairings: Daniel, Rorschach, Laurie, Adrian, Manhattan in pt 1, Dan/Ror.
Summary: A lot happens in the in-between spaces; in the tiny intervals of time in which no one is watching, we are free. Dan and Rorschach face the future more head-on than they expected; Adrian learns about regret and what happens when you're wrong.
Rating/Warnings: PG-13, some language. Philosophy, violence, twilight zone bullshit, time travel, pretentious metaphors, and Waffle House.
Notes: Yet ANOTHER kinkmeme prompt. Post-GN fixit. COMPLETE.
This story is now completed. If you've not been reading and want to, here's a fake-cut to the beginning:
( There's another part of him, paradoxically compassionate and living deep and low in his chest, that aches desperately for Daniel to not have to see this happen. )
And here are fake cuts to the parts that have been posted since the last time I crossposted around, if you've been keeping up:
19: ( Loose ends bother her on a deep level, make the simple pleasures harder to enjoy. )
20: ( Nothing happens. )
21: ( The night creeps up on silent feet, settles around them like so much black goosedown, smothering. )
Epilogue: ( Sunset over the Adirondacks; some derelict siding, far past any highway signs or trail head markers. October. )
Crossposted, ofc. Enjoy :D
