Gundam Wing, Quatre x Trowa, appearances are deceiving

[andrea_deer]

Probably not exactly what you were looking for, but I still hope you'll enjoy :-)

When you know someone else for a very long time, you learn much more about them than you ever expected. Even people who seem simple have more layers than anyone could have predicted… And neither Trowa nor Quatre were simple men.

Looking at them you saw two young men. Beautiful, strong and calm.

Quatre saw nice, calm and quiet Trowa laughing so hard that tears were streaming down his cheeks. Angry enough to throw things at walls. Happy enough to grin like an idiot for a whole day.

Trowa saw Quatre… beautiful, nice and gentle Quatre, angry enough to kick at furnitures and break them. Naughty enough to talk dirty without a hint of blush or shyness. He saw him with a grim face standing over the dead bodies, hands covered in blood.

Their appearances weren’t telling all about them. They give away some things, hide others. Mostly people noticed how well they looked together and how perfect they had to be for each other. And that was true.

This sort of got side-tracked half way through. Sorry about that. It's been ages since I wrote 3x4. Oh, this made me feel nostalgic

SG-1, Jack/Daniel, One man's ceiling is another man's floor.

[draco_somnians]

LOL! OMG that's exactly the prompt that popped into my head when I saw the theme!! *giggles*

From Eroica With Love, Klaus x Dorian, one man's loss is another man's gain

Leverage, Parker/Eliot/Hardison, home is where the heart is

[earthquakedream]

Eliot's had a real home before. He remembers living with his parents and being a happy family. He remembers the time he spent with "that girl" and how good they were together - before he disappeared a little too much too often, and she got angry. But that way pretty much the story of his life

[bekkis]

*sigh* This is my happy place.

[havenward]

awwwww

[havenward]

Leverage, Parker/Hardison/Eliot, when you can't walk you crawl/when you can't do that you find someone to carry you

What? No one said the proverb couldn't be from another show...:grins:

[elebridith]

*chokes* Oh God. I cried so much at the end of that episode!

[weesta]

What other show is this from?

[elebridith]

Quote's from Firefly, the episode was... wait..."The Message". The quote is something Mal and his war buddies used to say. *sniffs*
