This is a series of drabbles I signed up to write around the characters of Mark and Roger. I'm about finished with all 100 of them, so I figured that I would start posting them a few at a time.

These are not in any particular order, and most of them can be read on their own. If they do build off of each other I will post them together and make a note of it. These range from them being anything from friends to lovers, just to warn you, go from Pre-Rent to Post – Rent, and are anywhere in rating from G to M. I'll put up a warning if there's anything to make the rating go up above the drabble. I'm kind of experimenting with how to format this, so bear with me.

Title:Too Chipper
Prompt: Beginnings
Rating:PG
Summary:Mark and Roger have very different ideas on how to start the day...

Every morning, Mark would wake up early, ready to begin filming. Usually Roger would be sprawled across the couch, his guitar hanging limply from his grasp.

Mark would clatter around the kitchen, and Roger would wake up. He'd glare at Mark as he stumbled to his room to fall back asleep.

But one morning when Mark tried to leave his room, he couldn't open the door.

"Roger?" he yelled, guessing who had done it. "Let me out!"

Roger opened one eye and looked at the string that ran from couch to door. Mark needed to learn how to sleep in.

Title:Glasses
Prompt: Sight
Rating:PG
Summary:Mark loses his glasses

Mark couldn't see without his glasses. He really couldn't see.

Roger woke up to Mark cursing. "What's wrong?" he asked sleepily, rolling over.

"I knocked my glasses off the table, and I can't find them."

Roger blearily climbed over his friend and, hanging upside down off the bed, searched the floor until he'd found them. Mark squirmed and mumbled about how heavy he was.

Roger pulled himself back up, handed the glasses to Mark, and crawled back to his side of the bed, pulling his blanket over his head. He barely heard Mark's "thank you" before he'd fallen back asleep.

Title:Poor Roger
Characters/pairing: Mark/Roger friendship, Roger/Mimi
Prompt: Middles
Rating:PG
Summary:It's the middle of the night. Roger and Mimi are in the middle of a fight. Roger is in the middle of Mark's bed

It was the middle of the night when Mark woke up to someone climbing into his bed. He sleepily opened his eyes to find Roger disappearing under the blankets. He peeked. Roger looked back at him. "Mimi kicked me out of my room," he said guilty, "She's been…cranky today."

"So you came here?" Mark asked, amused, "What about her apartment?"

Roger made a face. "She said if I touched any of her stuff I wouldn't get any for a month." He shuddered, "She was in a really bad mood."

Mark snorted, turning back over. "Fine, but no stealing the blankets."

Fandom:Rent
Title:Lessons
Characters/pairing: Mark/Roger friendship, Roger/Mimi
Prompt: Tears
Rating:PG
Summary:Who wants to tango with Roger?

Mimi stopped outside the loft door, listening.

"No no no! Step—step—step—SIDEstep!" That was Mark's voice, followed by Roger's voice, cursing.

Curious, Mimi peeked inside. Mark and Roger were in each other's arms—she blinked—tangoing?

Roger saw her and hastily yanked back out of Mark's grasp, causing Mark to stumble and almost fall over. He turned a bright red. "Mimi! I was just…we were just…uhhh."

Mark, turning, saved him. "He wanted to learn how to tango…to impress you." Roger nodded vigorously.

Mimi laughed until she cried, tears running down her cheeks. Then she ran to hug Roger.
