The 28 Flavors Meme! You claim one, I write some amount of it in the comments. Feel free to specify a pairing (canon or crossover!) you'd like to see, but I'm not making any promises to that end.
(Also, if left to my own devices, millicanon and
squeefit-verse are equally likely. Just sayin'.)
(
because who else would I write about for one of these? )

There are witnesses, all right. Even if this is a pretty empty subway car by New York standards, Angel's not alone with the creep eyeing him. The creep's eyeing a few of the girls in the car as well, but he's downright leering at Angel. Occupational hazard of the drag, really.
But then the creep propostions him, and snorts when Angel turns him down. "What, you don't think I'm man enough for you?"
"You're not my type."
"Oh, I get it. You like girls"Not in the least, actually," Angel says, before deliberately dropping his voice. "I prefer my men to have a functioning brain ( ... )

"It was. Gonna have to remember that one."
"Oh, definitely. Love you."
"Love you, my Angel."
"'S not a job description."
"Semantics."
If the world at large wants anything from Angel, it's just going to have to wait a while.

"Mark? You in there?"
"Reading. Go away."
"I don't think I will, sorry. You've been nearly impossible to find all week, and I'm not giving up now."
"...Oh. Angel. Sorry. Come in."
So he does, and finds Mark curled up on his bed, about halfway through Moving Pictures once again from the looks of it.
"You all right?"
"Yeah, just... hoping everyone's so busy with the wedding stuff that they'll forget I'm here. I don't need someone getting tired of chewing Cindy out for getting herself pregnant and deciding to light into me."
"Why would they do that?"
Mark shrugs. "It's what people do."
"Well, in any case, your plan seems to be working - your mother wasn't even sure if you were up here. Want to get out for a while? Sounds like you need it, even if we just do homework."
"Sure." Mark goes to climb out of bed, and turns pink; far as Angel can tell, it's because he's still in his pajamas. "Um. Maybe I should change clothes first."
Angel laughs. "You do that, honey. I can wait."

"...No. Why would I? All I wanted to do after I got out was go get my stuff, and we did that last week."
Instead of explaining outright, Mark just grins. "Pack stuff for two weeks."
"Pack stuff? Pack stuff for... oh." It sinks in, and Angel grins in turn; he's really liking being able to smile again. "How long have you been planning this?"
"Since you said you needed out of there. Figured we'd both need a vacation, by the end of the semester."
"Good thinking, honey. Where're we going?"
"Where do you want to go?"
"...Pretty much anywhere that isn't Buffalo, but we can't really cover all that in two weeks. You ever been to Cleveland?"
"No."
"How about we start there and make it up as we go along? It's probably changed a bit since I was six, but I might still be able to manage a tour, of sorts."
"Whatever you want, Angel. Now, go pack. We should probably go as early as we can manage, tomorrow, what with traffic and all."
Angel kisses Mark, then heads for the bedroom (their bedroom ( ... )

Still, this is one surprise he (and likely the rest of the bar) could have done without. And he knows the music's toying with him as much as it is with Mark, at this point. Probably to make up for not pulling him along for the ride.
Somewhere in the back of Angel's head, there's a protest brewing. This shit's making him look bad, Christmas was nearly a month ago, he'd never wear that outfit out of season.
But there'll be time for that later. Right now, he's a little busy boggling at Mark, and hoping like hell it's not too late to get the damn music out of here.

Angel raises an eyebrow. "I'm not?"
"Not unless you've got something to do for a class or something."
"Nothing I can't miss."
"If you're sure. Just... it sounded like you really needed a break, over the phone, but I don't want to pull you away from anything important--"
"Relax, Mark, it's fine. This is probably better for me anyway." Then, in deference to the occasion, Angel at least makes an attempt at melodrama. "Oh, woe. I have been spirited away from my place of torment by my love. Whatever shall I do?"
Angel doesn't think it's a very good effort, but Mark grins anyway. "Good to see you haven't lost your sense of humor."
"If I do, get me the hell out of there. Even half of a college education's not worth that."
(Eep, a fangirl! XD Glad you like it. Also, that icon kinda wins.)

Well, last night I was a bit crazy (just finished a huge project for school, so...)
Awwwww! Very cute!
