10_quotes Fics
1.Title: Cephas
Rating: PG13
Word count: 578
Summary: A relentlessly sappy and at the same time bitter sweet little moment set during "Into Asylum". Because Peter seriously did need a hug.
Warnings: A moment featuring a slash pairing embracing in a Catholic church written by a lapsed Catholic so...about what you'd expect from that.
Disclaimer: Not mine in the least.
Author's Notes: So I was having a dry spell in terms of inspiration, which sent me diving through challenge/prompt communities, the most helpful of which was 10_quotes. Which features quotes from the AFI's top 100 films and encourages people to pick ten of them to write fics around. Which I have now done. The quote in question for this piece is from On the Waterfront and is: "What kind of saint hides in a church?" So there we are. Also forgive me for my bit of pretentious fic titling. I'm lame sometimes.
