FIC: Inhalation (Posner/Dakin

                "How about you, Poz, any bloke caught your eye?" Dakin said unexpectedly in a lazy drawl. He took a drag of his cigarette as he waited for Posner to answer.

"No one particularly, no," Posner replied. The unsaid except you resonated loudly in the silence that followed. He shifted uncomfortably on the hardwood floor ( Read more... )

Oh, I could really see this -- Posner doing it because... well, because it's Dakin, but it's really not what he wants or the way he wants it but... well, there it is. Well done. ♥

Poor Posner...
This was great. I could really see a scene like this happening. The last line is marvelous.

Yup, this sounds like the Dakin I saw in the film. *sigh* I'll never understand why he didn't go for the drink with Irwin. Then again Dakin really needs an alpha male to squash him a bit. I think you captured Posner well, the combination of knowing exactly what Dakin is + wanting him anyway. Well done!

Apparantly in the play, Irwin is in a wheelchair so that's why they don't do it in the play - it sort of freaks Dakin out. I have no idea why Irwin isn't in a wheelchair in the film, but there you have it. Maybe for Dakin the challenge of having it off with a teacher was the real attraction, who knows.
Thanks so much for the comment - I'm glad my characterisations worked out :D

It's Dakin for sure. And he could use a few females to squash him too, to give him that "you think you're so hot, well you're just an egotistical wanker and I can find a better boy than you before walking out of this building/quad/bar."
