Sports Night: Never Leaving Home (The Being is not Doing Remix)
Original Story Coming in Third, by allfireburns
Remix: Never Leaving Home (The Being is not Doing Remix) [Dan Rydell/Casey McCall, 100 Words, Rated PG] by hyperfocused
Casey's no idiot. He knows how Dan feels, and how Dan feels about him. Casey does what's expected, what's safe; he does what's best. He does what he wants to want. Choices he's failed to make have kept his name on the good side of the press. The press that isn't him, of course. There can be no press of Dan against him, no more than brotherly hugs.
Casey strips his prose of "is feeling" and "Wants to be" and peppers it with action words. But the only action he takes with Dan, is to speak of scores, without scoring.
