.a.n.: Okay, as obsessed as I am with D1 right now, my other drabbles can wait. Here's for another OTP: Sengoku Kiyosumi x Muromachi Touji. If you can't remember who Touji is, he's the guy with goggles (and as a result, the horrible goggle!tan XD). And he has no character. Which just makes for loads and loads of fun. But yesh:runs around randomly: I'm still trying to figure out how to characterize Touji, so a lot of the drabbles I have of him alternate between him being a jerk and Akutsu-like nice. :is weird: Wheee...
Oh, and Tora Macaw: yey I'm back-ish. Heh, very long hiatus, but it's kinda nice to be back at FFnet. And I missed you too! XD It seems that everyone else I know from FFnet has disappeared, besides DnKS-giRLs (heh, love too), and I'm reeling from the influx of new!authors and new!fics. :goggles: This might take me a while...
Anyway, here's some light SenMachi, somewhat easy to miss, but it's there. Hope you enjoy!
.d.i.s.c.l.a.i.m.e.r.: Egh. Again. But I want Muromaaaaaachi...(notmine).
Title: Saturnine
Pairing: SenMachi
Rating: PG13
saturnine (SAT-uhr-nyn) adjective: 1. born under or being under the astrological influence of the planet Saturn. 2. gloomy or sullen in disposition. 3. having a sardonic or bitter aspect.
Touji is a pessimistic person, all what if we lose and shouldn't you be wearing a helmet while the rest of the team cracks jokes. The Jimmies say he grounds the dreams of Yamabuki, reminds them that Hyotei, Rikkaidai and Seigaku are still out there, waiting to jump their asses when they're least expecting it. Sengoku begs to differ. Touji, Sengoku cheerfully informs everyone, is like the child who was denied a lollipop when the rest of the children were eating popsicles, and he's been bitter ever since. All Touji needs, Sengoku is absolutely sure, is a good sugar boost straight to the brain and a good girl to cuddle with.
Touji sends a glare Sengoku's way, and tells Sengoku the girl that Sengoku has been flirting with had mono last month. Sengoku frowns - he'd been fond of her, as much as he'd been fond of any girl - because Touji has a particular, absolute way of ruining his fun. Touji, Sengoku declares, would be very attractive if he weren't so miserable; it's no wonder he's still single. But at the words come out of his mouth, Dan and even Akutsu look at him kind of funny, and Sengoku realizes too late that Touji, beneath all his poison words, cannot take the criticism himself.
Sengoku yells for Touji to wait up as he follows him, trying to apologize in a manner that won't seem too desperate. Wipe that dumb smile off your face, Touji snaps at him, that's why no one ever takes you seriously. But Sengoku's puppy eyes work again, and Touji stops in his tracks and heaves an ever-familiar sigh. Don't do it again and you dumb bastardspour out of his mouth, but between the abuse Sengoku pieces the words you're forgiven together, and he smiles again.
He asks Touji why he's always so gloomy.
Touji says, for the same reason Sengoku's always so happy.
And for some reason, this puts the silliest grin on Sengoku's face.
.a.n.: Yes, dork love. XD Hope you enjoyed.
