A/N: HI wow, I didn't anticipate how hard it would be not to write fanfiction for a month, or interact with this community. After about three weeks, I was just itching, bursting with ideas like an overstuffed sausage. NaNo went well, though. I didn't win, not by a long shot, but I've had so much going on this month, and I wrote a lot more than that one story (because after a couple of days, all my other characters realized I was focusing on original fiction and mobbed me) so I'm pretty happy with how it turned out. The point was mostly that I wrote- and I wrote. :)
This isn't one of the drabble series, not yet, but those are coming soon. I'll be honest, I'm pretty excited for both. :D
Episode: Space Colony (Part 2)
Rating: K
Warnings: None, really
Inspiration: The theme of the episode, combined with how while Gao is monologuing, Adam keeps glancing over at Chase with a serious, slightly distracted air. I wondered what he was thinking, and this is what I got.
It really is great to be back, guys. Now, as usual, please make someone smile today, and review. :)
Gao is rambling.
Adam knows he should be listening, but he's never been good at multitasking, and his thoughts are all-encompassing. Sensitive after Chase's dressing down, he's noticing things he'd never noticed before.
Like how he's almost instinctively looking to Chase for a plan, how he trusts his brother with his life.
Like how his little brother had grown, into someone resourceful and mature.
And Adam wonders. If he's grown as much as Chase has. If Chase trusts him the same way Adam trusts him. If he even deserves it.
And he wonders what he'll do if the answer's no.
