*crosses fingers* I love your Proper-False 'verse, I hope we'll get to read more!
You can thank my dictionary for that one. *g*
Alas, this is one of these times when I loved each prompts when preparing the game, and find myself scratching my head when I read them now, unable to find anything to write for them. Hopefully, other people will fare better!
I'm asking myself, why the heck did I choose to set most of the story in New York (although we're not geographically there yet). At least it's not Spain?
I've been to NY for a few days, but it was only to Chinatown, an evening in Times square and one Metro trip ;_;

(I was wondering why I found it difficult to relate to your setting problems when I should actually meet the same each time I write about a US show/movie, but then I remembered: I write stand-alone drabbles, there's little to no setting to be talked of in 100 words. That would certainly explain.)

Nicholas would love to be able to say that he continued being the perfect attentive boyfriend for the rest of the flight. But whereas takeoff is the bane of Adrien’s existence, it’s the ultimate sleeping aid for him. As the plane gained altitude, he nodded off in his still-upright chair. He roused ten or so minutes later when a flight attendant handed Adrien a glass of orange juice.
Yawning, he remarked, "Oh hey, they use real glass in the business section."
"That they do," Adrien replied, taking a sip from his glass.

Hopefully this'd un-block my "Durr...what should I write next?" for The Proper-False part six ;_;
Also, "Whitewash" = nice prompt. *thumbs up*
