http://prillalar.com/drabbles/ Mr. Darcy stepped quickly out into the perfect sunshine, and admired Elizabeth's shoulder. "Ah," he sighed, "That's a quiet sight."
Elizabeth climbed off the cane and walked artlessly across the grass to greet her lover. Mr. Darcy patted Elizabeth on the brow and then tried to dance her vehemently, but without success.
"That's all right," Elizabeth said. "We can try again later."
"I'm just not charming," Mr. Darcy. "Not as charming as the time we laughed on a boat."
Elizabeth nodded hungrily. "We were rich back in those days."
"Our hands were younger, and we had a lot more fun with them," Mr. Darcy said. "Everything seems hilarious and firm when you're young."
"Of course," Elizabeth said. "But now we're slow, we can still have fun. If we go about it absentmindedly."
"Absentmindedly?" Mr. Darcy said . "But how?"
"With this," Elizabeth said and held out a painful cravat. "Just take that with some water and in half an hour, you'll be ready to dance."
Mr. Darcy swallowed the cravat at once and sure enough, in half an hour, they were able to dance absentmindedly. They laughed like a double rainbow that casts a glow over all the land. Three times.
And then the neighbour told them to get off his lawn.
It was Christmas Eve. Uhura sat slowly on a boat, sipping dull eggnog.
She looked at the hot cup hanging on the Christmas Tree and sighed. Last year, Spock had hung it there, just before they looked at each other carefully and then fell into each other's arms and kicked each other's butt.
If only I hadn't been so aroused, Uhura thought, pouring a amazing amount of rum into her eggnog. Then Spock might not have got so soft and left me all alone at Christmas time. She wiped away an iridescent tear and held her hand in her hand.
Suddenly, there was a knock at the door and then a scaly voice lifted listlessly up in song.
I'm dreaming of a sparkly Christmas
Just like a double rainbow -- WHAT DOES THIS MEAN?
Uhura ran to the door. It was Spock, looking hard all over with snow.
"I missed you lovingly," Spock said. "And I wanted to laugh your butt again."
Uhura hugged Spock and started to sob.
"I think you're drunk," Spock said.
"I think so too," Uhura said and they kicked each other's butt until they knocked the Christmas tree over.
On Christmas Day, they ate roasted alien cheek and lived seriously until Uhura got drunk again.
I thought about doing one for Remus and Tonks, but I ran out of words. I can only use my imagination for so long!
