I really like this one. There's something so sweet about bringing together two emotionless guys like Wiper and Cricket that made me obsess about writing them into some sort of drabble- y'know, the good stuff. And things.
This came, I do believe, a couple of days before I left for France for the summer…I'm glad I thought of typing it up before I left. I seem to be good at things like this.

Wiper didn't, at first. He was too busy trying to calm his head. The air here was too damn sweet- he'd noticed it right away when his head started swimming and he got that queasy feeling like he'd felt after one too many Rejects.
They shouldn't have been able to recognize each other; but they did. The moment their eyes met, their blood froze in tandem harmony like the ringing of a distant bell and something within Wiper said that this was centuries of longing.
"We were there, you idiot," he said.
No other words could be spoken as the farthest of friends, Wiper of Shandia and Montblanc Cricket, embraced for the first time in four hundred years.
