Movie Night, Marcus/Esca, PG-13, (warnings: mild spoilers for Love Actually) 1/4lallylooDecember 13 2011, 08:01:36 UTC
totally meant to make this smutty, but ended up with pure fluff instead.. hope you don't mind! ;)
*Esca hadn't expected to see another light on. He'd been heading to the lounge when he noticed, pausing just as he turned the corner to head down the north hall. He craned his neck, glancing back at the open door which cast a dim glow out into the hallway, and Esca's stomach flipped when he realized the light was coming from Marcus's room

“Bill Nighy is totally underrated.”
“I'm not sure if he's underrated or if people just don't know him here.”
“Yeah, maybe that's it.”
Marcus hummed along as the music played on screen, and Esca watched him out of the corner of his eye. He'd made sure to sit on the same couch as Marcus, despite the fact that there were several available and he could've sprawled out on any of them. Marcus didn't seem to mind, propping his feet on the couch in front of them as he sat next to Esca.
“Oh, Colin Firth -” Esca began, stopping himself, not entirely sure if Marcus would want to hear about his crush on Colin Firth. “He's great in this.”
“Yeah.” Marcus nodded, staring at the screen as the scene switched to Liam Neeson. “And this, this whole storyline kills me.”
Esca glanced back up at the screen. “Where he's lost his wife?”
“Yeah, and he's trying to raise his stepson. Kills me.”
“Yeah, me too.” Esca watched the scene for a moment before pushing his bowl towards Marcus. “Want popcorn?”

“This guy, fuck, he should've told her.”
“Well he does tell her.”
“Yeah, but by then it's too late, she's already married to the other guy.”
“They could split up, you never know.”
Marcus turned to him, smirking. “Esca, that's awful.”
“It happens in real life, it could happen in the movies.”
“No, see, that's the tragedy of it. They both know now and there's nothing they can do about it.”
“Pfft.” Esca laughed. “Divorce.”
Marcus gave him a playful kick, nudging Esca's foot on the back of the couch. “That's mean.”
“I'm kidding.” Esca said, nudging Marcus's foot in return. He tapped against it twice, then let his foot settle next to Marcus's, the side of his foot resting against Marcus's ankle. When Marcus didn't respond or pull away in surprise, Esca left it there.

Eeeeeeeeeee!!!! I love love love this! It's got Esca and Marcus being adorable and awkward AND Love Actually, which is one of my favourite movies ever, AND nods to the Eagle movie canon AND there are even echoes of other story-lines from Love, actually in this (their shy and sometimes awkward conversation totally reminded me both of the first clumsy conversations between Sarah and Karl in the office, and of the cute conversation between Sam and Joanna at the airport!!)
This was so so good and I am all heart eyes and cheek cracking smiles now :DD ♥ ♥ ♥ ♥ ♥ ♥

Aww yay! I'm happy you liked it! I was sort of imagining them in their own little Love, Actually scene where they both have a bit of a crush and things finally come together at Christmas time. :D

My cheeks ache from smiling so much during this story. AWWWW. I love how awkward they are, and how they compare accents, and the foot touching!! Your smut's great but the fluff did NOT disappoint.
I just realized this comment fest has gotten me into the holiday spirit more than anything else this year. I want to bake cookies and watch make SO watch Love Actually again with me. :D

Haha I'm glad the fluff worked for you! And yes! This fest has gotten me into the Christmas spirit too.. or, at least, it makes me want to write holiday Eagle fic ;)
