Drabble: Insensitive

[curuchamion]

Cross-posted from my LJ, I bring my first work in this fandom: a Steel-centric drabble. I've been quite impressed by the quality of other fans' work, and sincerely hope this offering is up to par.

I was particularly influenced by nemo_everbeing 's amazing " And This Gray Spirit" and thisiszircon 's " The Wallflower". And of course, I've got to thank David McCallum for being

Lovely exploration of Steel's character and his differences to Sapphire. =)

Love it.

[curuchamion]

Many thanks! I really love analyzing teams that work well together because of their differences, and Sapphire and Steel are close to the top of that list.

I really like drabbles as a form, and I enjoy how you've used it here. Plus it's a nice character study of Steel. :-)

[curuchamion]

Thanks! I enjoy drabbles too - some of the best fic I've seen has been drabbles. (Why, oh why, is the drabble not accepted as a legitimate form of writing in the wider world? ...wanders off...)

Oh, love it love it. The last sentence contains worlds. Cri moar.

[curuchamion]

The last sentence contains worlds.

Thanks! I wasn't really sure it even worked.

Wow! This is a lovely little drabble, and I'm so happy my fic could help inspire it!

[curuchamion]

Oh, not just help... you caused it. You made me despair of ever finding anything to say about Steel that you hadn't already summed up beautifully. And, well... *cheeky grin* I don't give up. ;-)

(A million million thanks, really. For everything. "And This Gray Spirit" is one of those rare fics I save to my hard drive so fast I forget to comment, because I CANNOT lose this - seriously, it's incredible.)

[nemo_everbeing]

Wow! Well, thank you so much. I loved what you had to say about Steel, and about his relationship with Sapphire, which is a key part of his character I didn't touch. I'm thrilled you took up that challenge and created such a wonderful drabble.

[curuchamion]

You're welcome! And thank you, again! :D

Fantastic capture of Steel's character. And, awww...lovely ending line, because he usually does.

[curuchamion]

Thanks!

Oh yes, he does... *snuggles Steel*
