Rafa/David. :) or any other tennis boys you want.

[asimplechord]

:))) David won his Davis Cup match yesterday. Rafa's still rehabbing his knee. Did you have a trope choice, or is hurt/comfort okay?

[shutyourface]

omg h/c, please!

so, there's not much h/c in this h/c, really. apparently I'm better at reading it than writing it.

[asimplechord]

Rafa hates that he isn't playing, that he isn't even there, can't cheer the team on. But this is easier than watching the US Open, knowing that if he were there, if he were healthy, he would probably be the one who would end David's chances for a semi-final in a Slam. This is for Spain, and if Rafa can't compete, he can at least be happy that David can. That David does

seconded!

not!fic

(I know a) nothing about the law or FBI and b) nothing about the Bay Area, so I'm gonna apologize and leave this as not!fic, rather than trying to convince a native with my ignorance

It turns out that Colbert is a ridiculously good chameleon. Somehow he's around more often than not - his excuse is that he's a freelance programmer, and he works non-traditional hours, mostly when he's got a contract - and somehow not intrusive.

Not even when he's right there, camped in Nate's guest room, leaning on Nate's counter waiting for coffee to brew, elbowing him for space in the bathroom in the morning as they brush their teeth, checking in with Nate more than anyone but a really attentive spouse would.

When the case is finished, Nate doesn't know how to go back to not having Brad - Colbert, he tells himself - in his living space, in his personal space, meeting him for a drink after work or bringing him Thai take-out when they're working late

ERIC/JEFF BODYSWAP

[asimplechord]

Okay, I'm going to write something for this for real, but I am tipsy from a wine tasting and my first thought is that Eric doesn't know how to deal with how Jeff's body is so easily roused and so close to the edge so quickly. Also, the things that turn him on are so not normally Eric's thing. Like, his earlobes are weirdly sensitive.

[thesamefire]

yessssssss

how was the wine tasting?

[asimplechord]

Any excuse for wine! Pinot noirs are not my favorite because they don't have enough body for my taste (old vine zins, malbecs, and carmeneres, come to meeee) but it was educational. And social. :)

Tunny/Will, accidental baby acquisition. :D

[asimplechord]

Tunny brings Delilah home. It's supposed to be a temporary placement - Jingletown's CPS is underfunded and understaffed, and they always need foster families. Tunny was supposed to meet Matt, one of the guys he'd interned with, for a drink, and he'd been at Matt's office when a couple of cops brought her in, wailing like the world was about to end, and explained that she'd been on the scene at a drug bust but no one would claim her

OH MY GOD OH MY GOD OH MY GOD I LOVE IT. ASHDFSK:LJDGJSODGUOGDSUOGS.

Brad/Walt, forced to share a bed. :)

[asimplechord]

"I'm just gonna put your bag in the guest room, go ahead out back - Ray's out there with the other guys from Bravo," Lisa tells Walt

[schlicky]

Oh, I love it. So much. Please, may I have some more? There's a whole story here that I'm just dying to read. :D

[asimplechord]

I'm not ignoring this, I just haven't worked out where I'm going with the backstory yet. :)
