scribblemynameLet's take the third first. Overhauling the story from inferno, aka "Dowse and Bleed," left me feeling drained and exhausted, but it's out to beta and may she not find any more structural issues that need addressing. For that matter, may I not!
On angst: I write a lot of it. I know that. I've been buried it in lately and I feel a desperate need for something light, fluffy, and humorous, so on to point two:
Anyway I need something light and fluffy to clear out some headspace. Anyone want to give me
- A character or couple
- A random word or object
And I will write you a drabble: 100 words. No more. That'll keep my headspace break from getting out of hand. :grins:

Seven Days Ficlet: Just for a Minute
Date: 2013-09-08 04:28 pm (UTC)“You sure you don’t want to just stop for a little while?” Lena asked for the third time that evening. She glanced at the clock and winced. “The books aren’t going anywhere and Angelita and I can just as easily hit this tomorrow.”
Wesley started to shake his head, then sighed. “Maybe I’ll just sit down for a minute.”
Wesley handed her a book as they sat on the couch, and Lena opened to where they’d left off and started to read aloud. A few minutes in, she realized Wesley wasn’t really listening any more. He had started to fall over and his head was leaning on her shoulder.
She set the book down and shifted enough for him to sleep comfortably. Strange almost that this was the first time they’d really touched. It was nice. She leaned against him and thought, just for a minute. He did need to get home sometime that night.
When Angelita came in through the front door the next morning, she stopped and raised an eyebrow, then sighed and went for the camera. Lena and Wesley had both fallen asleep on each other and she would need evidence for when they later denied it.

(and that should be a drabble, them getting confronted with the evidence.)

Date: 2013-09-09 02:10 am (UTC)Angelita blandly held up the incriminating photographic evidence. Quite adorable if she did say so herself. Wesley—once a patron, now a fixture—and Lena had curled up together on the couch, heads leaning on each other’s, and fallen sound asleep.
“You don’t get in that position on accident,” she pointed out.
Lena merely sniffed, deliberately not answering as she went about putting the tea on, but Angelita could see that she was blushing.

I think they need to do that again so that Connor can see it and tease his brother.

(It can be AU if necessary.)
Seven Days Ficlet: Lost Cause
Date: 2013-09-09 08:04 pm (UTC)Wesley looked offended. Lena started protesting. Connor started laughing.
“I,” Connor said, “am going to like you, aren’t I?”
Angelita raised an eyebrow. “You see what I’m seeing?”
“That they’re hopelessly in love and can’t admit it?”
Lena blushed furiously. “That is not fair.”
Wesley looked back and forth between them. “Oh, no. You two do not get to gang up on us.”
Angelita’s black eyes danced. “I’ve got photographic evidence.”
Connor grinned back. “This I gotta see.”
In the end, it was an utterly lost cause to stop their alliance.
“Wesley, I had no idea you came over this much.” Connor waved a photo at his brother. “You two are actually cute together.”
“Aren’t they?” Angelita piped in. “This is my favorite.”
Lena tried to swipe the picture out of her hands. “Hey! You promised to burn that!”
“Never said when.”
Connor held out said picture to his brother of Lena and Wesley asleep together on the couch and gave a thumbs up.
