Authoress' Notes: First slash fic for this fandom, woohoo! I think so, anyway. 100 word drabble.
New author's note (1/3/05): FFN deleted this for no reason. :D YAY. So now I'm reuploading it into the "right" category, even though it was ALREADY IN THE RIGHT PLACE argh.
They're conquering the storm by burning books. Four hundred and fifty one degrees Fahrenheit, but it's not warming him. Solid, liquid, gas: he wishes the ice would melt, or maybe sublimate. Anything's better than utter isolation. Ignorance, inadvertent rejection -- he seeks solace in Brian instead.
Thoughts have been incinerated, so they rely on actions. Hug, kiss, warmth. He tastes of Doritos and root beer and unbrushed teeth; another reminder that they're starving. Sam's willing to bet that they should already be dead. Is this really happening...?
Momentary flight: he's just one in a billion, and soon to be crashing.
