I'll put them to bed, but they won't sleep

Man, it's been a while.

From prurient_badger's prompt: Blaise/Tom Riddle - Quixotic use of time turners. Though I'm not sure I managed to get the quixotic bit in there but there's definitely a time turner. Written in about an hour (holy shit!), unbetaed, title taken from a bit of a Death Cab for Cutie song.

( Like Nothing at All - Blaise/Tom Riddle, PG, 500 words )

wah! WAH. i love the idea of B being unsettled. *purrs* he needs it. and i totally embarassed myself with a small squee when i saw you'd wrote something. *faceplant*

The other boy blinked then stared and Blaise stared back unblinking.
this sentence just about made my life. i love it, it's like running backwards and forwards at the same time.

that i'm happily imagining Tom & Blaise in school uniforms doesn't at all hurt this. i'mma totally going to dig up the T/B/D smut that Ai & I started now. XD

If all goes well there will be more unsettled!B in the near future. Which reminds me, if I do get it finished, think you could fit in a beta sometime before you go?

You've no idea how happy this makes me. XD (& also the resulting image in my head of you bouncing up and down possibly with your bunny hat on makes me giggle)

hee! ya know it figures, of course, you pick the sentence I was most unsure of as your favourite. 'tis a sign all is right with the world. or something :D And now I like it a whole lost more. It's kind of like a palidrome with out actually being one.

mergf. *wants*

you know i'll happily beta for you. :) i love sneak-peeking. XD

... there was no bunny hat! at all! ... k, so maybe a little. *faceplant*

It's kind of like a palidrome with out actually being one.
yes! that's it, exactly. i was going to attempt to say that but, seeing as i forgot the bloody word, i decided to spare you the pain. XD

WOAH. Please go on!!!!!!!!!!!! Loved it.

greenapricot May 7 2005, 15:54:04 UTC

I just may, at some point. Blaise/Tom is definitely a pairing with potential.

Thanks!

interesting scene. i loved the creepy, unsettled atmosphere. i'd suggest an edit after a run-through either by yourself or by a beta though. to be honest, i almost gave up reading because the errors made me wince.

typo here as well:
there way there was

greenapricot May 7 2005, 15:56:11 UTC

gah. Thanks so much for pointing that out. I wrote it and posted so quickly I hardly looked it over (which is clearly obvious).

I'm pleased the atmosphere came through as unsettled and not just confusing.

prurient_badger May 7 2005, 15:53:50 UTC

LOVE.

Tom's being able to unsettle Blaise is so plausible, and the whole thing feels so jumpy and real. I can't wait for your next fic: I'm so glad you're writing again. =D

greenapricot May 7 2005, 16:01:10 UTC

XD!

the whole thing feels so jumpy and real
It pleases me no end when these things work out the way I intended. Thankyouthankyouthankyou!

I'm working on it (the next fic that is). & you know I totally missed writing, I just didn't realize how much 'til I started again.
