Flashes: True Beast

Hank/Bobby

Archive: FFN, WWOMB, anyone else just needs to ask.

Marvel owns them, not I.

I had a large story that wasn't working on its own; there were too many flashbacks and not enough story. I decided to take the flashbacks and make them into their own series. Each flash is a brief moment in their lives together.

"Robert, we have to end this," his resolve was firm as he stared at the younger mutant. A prayer to every deity went up that his new appearance didn't scare his former boyfriend.

Bobby shrugged nonchalantly as he walked over to him, "I don't see why. I'm old enough to date you."

Blue fur barely made contact with the chair as Hank slid down. He didn't understand why Bobby wouldn't take the easy out. Why would he want to date a monster?

"Robert, I don't understand. I'm finally a true Beast. How can you pledge your love to a Beast," he nearly growled as his reflection caught in the glass of water next to him.

Bobby knelt on his knees before the angered young man, trying to convey the trust he felt. He noticed Hank's firm resolve was beginning to come apart at the seams and smiled inwardly. The soft blue fur, while a totally new sensation, felt wonderful against his forehead.

The silence loomed largely in the room only to be broken by Bobby's small whisper, "Hank, I love you for you. And I hope you know you can trust me with anything."
