Sponge

[misty75]

Mildred from next door has stopped speaking to me ever since she found out about our Gene. Can’t say I mind though, she were always a nasty piece of work…She’s probably spreading all sort of filth about my boy. My Boy, still call him that, even if he’s nearly 46.

I’ve made roast beef and sponge for afters. Sam’s been trying to get my recipe for months now, says Gene complains when he makes it for ‘im and it doesn’t taste the same as his mum’s...But I know my Gene, he’ll love it anyway because Sam made it for ‘im

Gene would never admit that a nancy git could cook as well as his mum, would he! Lovely.

It was a sordid thing really. Even with the women. Sure, Chris was cute with his floppy dark hair and delicate frame. His silly smile and bumbling nature that made people laugh. His subtle intelligence that the right people could see clearly. His skills as a cop such as his quick fists. And some women wanted to mother him, make him better when he got hurt and hug him and ruffle his hair. But mostly, they wanted to deface him. To fuck away his naivety. Chris was too perfect and child-like, so men and women alike wanted to break him.

Woo, dark! Very clever and unexpected response to the prompt - well done!

[sadera992]

thanx! cheery would've been boring :P

[tehringmaster]

Ooo I like this. I adore Chris and.. yeah I totally want to mother him. Not so sure I personally want to break him but I can see where that comes in. Well done.

When he first saw him leaning against the street corner, smoking a Marlboro, and looking as dead inside as the rest of them; Gene wanted to be wrong.
But later with his eyes glued to the sight of Tyler kneeling in front of some suit, ten quid clenched in his fist, cheeks hollowed and eyes screwed shut, there wasn’t room left for denial.
When he’d sacked Tyler over the M.A.R.S fiasco he’d been lashing out, he hadn’t intended to drive him to this.
Still, as the suit walked off, Gene stepped out from the shadows.
Ten quid wasn’t much really.

Thank you, I couldn't seem to help writing Gene slightly morally ambiguous here :S

Ouch! Poor Sam. This really was sad, Sam having sunk so low and yet, Gene to about the same level. Great job.

It's Just Ducky

(Yeah, it's a crossover. My latest obsession is NCIS.)

“Where the hell were you, Spear? Thought we would have to start stacking the stiffs in the corridor.”

“The annual pathologists’ conference in Edinburgh. You know, it’s amazing some of the new techniques they’re using… There’s this one specialist with some brilliant findings. In fact, some of them are things D.I. Tyler’s been mentioning. Maybe I should take him with me next year?”

“Great, just what I need, stiffs and paperwork piling up everywhere. Well, then - Arms tonight?”

“Sorry; I have company. Ducky came back with me to see our set-up.”

“Ducky?”

“Yes?”

“D.C.I. Gene Hunt - Donald Mallard.”

The idea of Oswald with a cruch on Ducky is just making me giggle. Thanks for that! :D

You're quite welcome. I figured -- DMC would have been 40 in '73 plus the jobs, the bow-ties...
