[Raffles] Ficlet: But My Own

[thirstyrobot]

Lame title is lame.
1157 words of the post-'Last Laugh' hurt/comfort that mshepley called for.
Is PG-rated slashy.
Thanks to madlovescience for eyeballing it! Any fail is my own.

*wails* Faustina is the worst of all the unnecessary female love interests! Don't worry, Bunny, you'll win him back. *clings*

Heart-wrenching. Name your icon, lovely creature.

UGH FAUSTINA. I nearly threw my book across the room when I read that story. Arturo, indeed. *gag*
Still, I'm glad for your prompt because it made me sort of deal with it. Therapy, don't you know. :P Thank you, dear!

This is a terrific little fic. I think you've captured Bunny's drama queen demeanor (at least that's how I see him sometimes) as well as his unswerving loyalty and faith in Raffles.

And I loved the ending. Raffles knows the name of his one true love.

Are you cross-posting to Crimeandcricket? I did with my drabble and got some sweet and helpful comments.

Edited to use the correct icon.

:D Thank you, my dear. Heh, drama queen Bunny. Hells yeah, Raffles knows what he wants. He's just a bit damaged and needs some Bunnyloving to set him right. *g*

I did mean to post it, but hadn't had time. Shall do so in a bit here.

Sorry to butt in, but crimeandcricket? Would that be a Raffles comm? Because if so, YAY! I've been looking for one for ages.

It sure is. Here's the link:

Bunny holds all of this back way too politely in canon for my tastes. Thank you for putting it out there! Wonderful.

[thirstyrobot]

Poor polite Bunny. He's such a good egg. I think I needed the venting as much as he did. Thank you! :D

Oh, oh, oh, this is gorgeous. Sad and sweet and honest--which is one of the hardest things to write--and just overall as lovely as can be. Beautiful beautiful beautiful, Mercy darling.

[thirstyrobot]

*sings* Sweet sweet Jane!

You are most excellent. I guess the honesty came from my sort of using this as a vehicle to process the rather disgruntling bit of canon, and stabbing at new characters always makes me need to get into somebody's head. ♥ Thank you, lovely!

[emeraldreeve]

Wonderful and very sad! I hope you write more of these two!

[thirstyrobot]

Thank you! And yep, I will be writing more of them, especially now that I've got my feet wet.
