Stuart sighed and looked around the club, gritting his teeth and anger and shooting his friend Joe the dirtiest look he could muster.

"So," Joe looked decidedly amused. "What do you think?"

I adored that. Lovely story.

They said it better than me. Almost everything they said I wish I had said.

I can so picture Dakin marrying his secretary (and cheating on her with his next one).

I am hooked on your stories.

Yay!!! Thank you! It feels good to be back, despite the errors I noticed in reading this over. Sigh. I'll fix them later.

That. Was. Hilarious. Especially the... uh... *coughs* name of the drinks. And "Hey Dave! Why are you dancing with a straight guy?" is just win.

And Dakin marrying his secretary... Ah, dear. *tears of laughter*

This might be me reading things a little bit wrong, but your Posner, here, seems kinda broken, for lack of a better word. Broken in a psychological way, not in a you've-written-him-weird kind of way. Oh, Posner. Breakdowns do seem to follow him in fanfiction, don't they?

Anyway. Loved this even if I kept waiting for Scripps to turn up and clock Dakin for dancing with his guy: yes, I'm a hopeless Posner/Scripps girl.

Thank you kindly :). You know, I didn't intend originally for him to turn out broken, but as I wrote it he just sort of became so. I like to imagine that this is how Posner would turn out if he finally tired of being sweet and used. I think that the way he is in this is a sort of act of rebellion against the way he's acted in the past.

Or he's just a slut now.

Not sure.

I think you're right on that - doesn't make it less tragic, though, in it's own way. Poor Poz. What happened to you? *pets Posner sadly*

Or he's just a slut now.
XD And now I'm laughing.

On that note, anything else in the works? Your stuff tends to be good for a read, and the fandom is kinda dead in terms of writers, which is a pity...

[vivhasarifle]

I agree. Poor Pos.

I have some more Posner/Scripps stuff in the works (that should make you happy). And I agree, people need to write more.
