Oh my goodness, when I posted the ficlet request meme I was not expecting anyone to write *me* fic. I guess it really does pay to be a big, dramatic whiner good person

Yay. All of thoese were delightful. I really don't have a favorite I just like them all.
Lori/Becky at the lake, sounds like a great honeymoon to me. In a perfect place with the perfect person.
And Clifford and Ricky at the junkyard, Clifford remembering their first date (and I don't care what Ricky says, it was a date) and being a couple for six months. Just Squee.
Which brings us to Marcus in a tie, gulping down champagne and trying to head outside to brood about boring parties, tight ties and busy boyfriends. But being recused by Harlan and his bright ideas :-)
I think the lake honeymoon is pretty perfect, myself. God knows where Merton would drag Tommy off to on their honeymoon. Transylvania, maybe. And Tommy would moan the whole time about how they *could* have gone to the Football Hall of Fame.
I love Harlan and Marcus. I just love them irrationally and with the intensity I used to reserve only for Brett and Avery. Which, come to think of it, might be why Brett is no longer speaking to me.
Hee. I will pass your message along. He's being an idiot and therefore I'm ignoring him, although someone requested Brett fic so I suppose I'll have to poke at him later. Today didn't exactly go as planned so there hasn't been any writing yet. But when I get to that point, maybe Avery will be more cooperative. I think he secretly finds Harlan/Marcus pretty charming himself (though he'd never admit it in front of Brett).
Ricky/Clifford! OMG! Squee! Wow, that brings back some lovely memories. Me mooning on about my Clifford's Ricky, and that first LJ summer. Crazy, yo. I can't believe I've known you for three years (almost), but at the same time I can't believe I haven't always known you. And, yeah, tangent. It was an awesome ficlet, though, very Clifford/Ricky.
I tend to imagine Clifford running a hotel just like his dad, and Ricky living there with him but going out to work every day at his body shop, where he gets to work with his hands and build things, and that gives him a sense of himself apart from Clifford. But Clifford's still a huge part of his life -- the central part, really -- and that's okay, because Clifford doesn't even try to pretend that Ricky's not the most important thing in his life

You know, as I was writing this I was thinking to myself, "I am totally stealing description right from Saphron's posts about her own cabin". But one of my college friends had a lake cabin in Vermont (the model for Becky's cabin) which had plenty of mosquitos (no wood stove, though), so I sort of think of that cabin *and* the way I picture your cabin now when I write about this fictional version.
Which is all to say that I'm glad the descriptions rang true, because I wasn't sure I'd captured what you were looking for, but I like thinking about Becky and Lori curled together on a summer morning in such a peaceful place.
I love Harlan and Marcus because even thought thier relationship was fucked up for a long time, they really are ment to be. I also love how Marcus is still a tad insecure about how Harlen feels about him. That is until Harlen tells Marcus.
The Harlan in my head refuses to consider a life without Marcus in it. Period. Which just goes to show that I am the worst kind of romantic. I am grateful there are a few people willing to go along on that journey with me, though. Thank you for reading : )

But I get why you love Marcus/Harlan so much.
Brett,
You ass. Caroline still loves you. Get the fuck over yourself.
Love (deal with it, I love you),
