Brian/AJ

[_crumbledstar]

Haven't requested in a while.

But I'm feeling some A-Rok love. Maybe one being goofy, trying to soothe some jitters before a show?

Or, you know, whatever strikes your fancy. I'm not picky. :D

I probably just wrote this without clicking the cliche-check button. XD Hope you like anyway, and that you've seen Napoleon Dynamite so that some of this makes sense. ;)

"I fuckin' forgot my lines. I'm such a dumbass! Gosh!"

"Dang!" Brian retorts, jerking his head quickly downward. They've been quoting Napoleon Dynamite ever since Nick threw the flick into AJ's bus during a rest stop, and Brian can't get enough, as usual.

When his head moves back to level, he notices a metal push cart leaning in the corner, begging to be used. "Wanna go take some sweet jumps?"

And then the blond is grabbing the large movable object, commanding AJ to ride standing upon the steep platform, attempting to push it across the the intimate stadium stage they'll be performing on later that day. The lovable looks on their faces mask any sense of fatigue in their otherwise worn out physiques, and Brian emanates no fear as he approaches the side staircase, sending AJ flying off the vehicle with a crash that echoes beyond the amphitheatre boundaries

They separate, staring at, into, one another. AJ eventually grasps his friend's upper arm, and Brian knows something's up. He'd known as soon as he removed the plastic, darkened frames from his timid face. "Angel?"

Brian's temple wrinkles, and his eyes alight, ready to calm and consult all on their own.

"I think I'm...nervous. About tonight. About the rest of the tour. I think that, whenever I forget something, I rememberAlthough Brian wishes that he doesn't understand what he means, he just isn't that lucky. AJ forgot much, and often, during their supposed "Golden Age," and brought deep frustration and stress to the entire group. He was sober now, but he couldn't ever erase his past; that was impossible

Guh. !!!!!!!!!
This was wonderful.

He intertwines his hands with the man before him, giving them both added stability before he speaks.
LOVE this line. There's just no other way for me to say it.

And I also love how goofy they are, and then how Brian has to physically calm himself down before he can be serious.

I adore the way you write these two.
Thank you so much for responding to this!

Oh my God, Nik, that was so quietly poignant. *is speechless* I was gonna point out the same line as Lindsey Jo did, because damn, that is such a pretty image.

You're SO good. Just. Wow. <3 <3

*smiles* I'm very glad to know that you guys liked this. Sometimes I'm afraid that I find it all too easy to write teh A-Rok; I get such a high out of it. Thank you for the line mention. <3

And you're more than welcome, _crumbledstar. :)
