Drabble: 'Encomium' (J/E - PG13) ~and~ Belated Birthday Wishes

[geekmama]

Holy Cats, it's been a crazy couple of weeks. Or month. Or two months. Thank goodness for three day weekends to play catch-up.

Woke up with this in my head (is the Muse finally speaking again?) and am presenting it as a small belated birthday offering to my dear piratey friends, ladymouse2 and florencia7, many happy returns to two of my favorite people!

Oh, you do cause such riotous delight in my heart, creating pictures of private times with such intrigue. Damn, what a lovely piece, sounds just like our bad boy, assuming a certain amount of pride in having created such a pleasurable disaster. Ta, miz gma2, hugs.

Thank you so much and the happiest of birthdays to you, too! As I said in the comment to your post, let me know what you'd like, too, and I'll write a birthday drabble for you, too, yay for three day weekends!! *Hugs*

[geekmama]

Thank you!!

Oh, lovely. The essence of J/E in a few beautiful words - brava ♥

[geekmama]

Thank you so much! You know how these things go, flashing upon one like a vision. Seemed very strange as I thought the Muse was comatose there for a while. Ah, Saturday mornings!

Simply perfect! Sometimes a drabble can express a moment or an emotion more than a longer fic. Beautifully done.

[geekmama]

Thank you so much! I have to agree that one can say an awful lot within that 100 word structure.

Roughened fingers caught in her hair, tenderly brushing it from her cheek. "Fair disaster." A just endearment, perhaps, but she murmured, "I might say the same of you," and kissed him again.

Quoting that whole bit, because I love it so much, but what comes before it is beautifully worded too :-) And you're writing again, yay!

You're there! Gosh, it's been just nuts the last two weeks at work, too exhausted to think when I get home. Should be slowing down some now, though, thank goodness. I'm so glad you liked this, and a little surprise for you, too, as I was pressed for time and thought I'd just take a chance and post it unbetaed. Have to zoom to the store and then we're off to a lawn ornament exchange party, lol! And grandson, daughter and two of her friends coming to swim this afternoon. More summer fun! I hope all is well with you, too. *hugs*

I'm here! So sorry I haven't replied to your e-mail yet, it's been a busy week for me too. Good to hear things are slowing down for you, though, and I hope you had a great time both at the party and later. *hugs back*
