Lookit! I wrote an O11 fic! *is proud*
Okay, it's very short, and very silly, but I haven't written a fic in ages, so I'm happy :)
Thanks go to Otherhawk for the encouragement. And I know it's nothing like the fic I told you about, but I have evil muses. They look like Benedict. Meh ;)
Umm… I don't own anything, please don't sue me, enjoy!
"There's got to be a way out of it!"
"Sorry Rus', you received a royal command. There is no way out. You have to go visit your family." Danny patted his shoulder comfortingly, biting his lip to avoid laughing at his friend's distress.
"Oh! I know!" Rusty jumped up, ignoring Danny completely. "I could get plastic surgery to look like Delia Smith. Then they'd never find me, let alone make me spend thanksgiving with them." He sat down again, beaming over the brilliance of his plan. Danny looked thoughtful.
"Why Delia Smith?" he asked. As Rusty opened his mouth to reply, a low groan came from where Linus was sitting.
"Why?" he whimpered. "Why would you even ask?" They turned to him, and for a moment everyone was silent, regarding his slumped form cautiously. He looked up, and seeing their confusion, continued. "Because now there's going to be an explanation, and it's going to be in half-sentences and it's going to ramble and I can't take it anymore! I just can't!" Rusty pouted.
"I was actually just going to say that my parents don't like her, so…." He was cut off by another whimper from Linus, and turned to Danny.
"I think we broke him." Danny nodded.
"Molly's going to kill us."
"We could buy her a dog, instead?"
The two slowly wondered out of the room, leaving Linus sobbing on an uncomfortable-looking Frank's shoulder, while Saul and Reuben sipped whiskey in amused silence, Basher tried to explain to Yen and the Malloy's who Delia Smith was, and Livingston smirked evilly by his computers, and hid the empty bottles of vodka he had used to spike everything the group had drank all day.. Teach people to call him boring!
And no, I don't understand it either. Nor do I know why Livingston got to prank people. But I enjoyed writing it and I hope you liked reading it :)
