"There had been a time when the slightest touch from Toby would set him on fire. Now, it just grounded and soothed him."

Oh, I like that a lot! Made me all verklempt!

I love the warmth in this, the edging back towards each other, very nice set-up for CLaK.

Thanks. I've tried a couple of times to do something with a pre-CLaK reunion between them, since you know there had to be *something,* but it's never quite come off.

Well, it's hard to top CLaK that way. It was everything the sappiest romantic among us could have hoped for, after all.

"Sorry for what?" he said, turning to look at him. "For telling me?"

Pfff! sometimes this guy really upsets me!

"I couldn't let him betray you, Chris"
yeah! I'd rather do it myself (evil laugh)

But that's love Oz style, their own version of a Hallmark card -- "When you care enough to whack someone for love." *g*

Oh, the tone of this is just perfect -- and a killer last line.

Thank you. Although what does it say that I want Toby to be a bloodthirty little maniac for his fella? :/

[rowanfairchild]

That you're an Oz fan! *g*

I guess it does. *g*

Damn Rebecca. This is so good. And it feels like such a true glimpse at what might have happened. Glad to see you drabbling again. :-)

Well I had this whole scenario imagined but it never got much further than that. Glad this little drabble works, though, thanks.
