I was doing this with iphignia939 last night and it was fun and I'm already climbing the walls so why not?

Patrick/Joe

The irony of a straight man leading him, another straight man, on so miserably isn't lost on Joe. Unfortunately, he's still lost to it.

And Patrick teases and Joe yearns and nothing happens except you wonder if Patrick could possibly be doing it on purpose, looking at Joe from under the brim of his hat with his own hand on Anna's knee as both of them eat barbecue. And yes.

Capote had that bizarre "wtf I want the little chubby one with the bad hair?" appeal, too. It crosses over.

That first one is practically perfect in every way. I think you should post it in dyw as a little ficlet because it's so self-contained and lovely. And the second one, gah. GAH.

Hahaha! You want me to post my crack on dyw just so they can laugh at it, don't you.

No! I mean, yes, but no! It's so great! I really think everyone would love it! Because I love it, and my love rules all!

LOVE WON'T SAVE YOU. /emoPete

I'll think about it. It always seems kind of. I don't know. Gratuitous to post three tiny paragraphs to a community. But hey!

There is an easy solution to this. Write two more, one with Pete one with Andy and then it's like...a thing.
