Dragon Knights Snippets: Singing

Alfeegi had a habit of humming as he worked.

It was a little-known habit, because he only did it when he was alone. In fact, Ruwalk was the only one who knew, and merely because he'd walked by Alfeegi's office and heard him. When Ruwalk would tease and gently encourage him to hum for him, Alfeegi always refused with a small smile and brief shake of his head.

"I don't sing for anyone," he'd said.

After realizing that there was no way to convince Alfeegi to sing for him, Ruwalk decided to try another tactic.

So every morning, when Ruwalk knew everyone was busy somewhere else and Alfeegi was alone in his office, he would walk up to the closed door and lean against it. Then he'd listen with a contented smile on his face to the lilting hum of the White Officer inside. Sometimes the hum would swell into words, and Ruwalk would relish the beautiful tenor voice.

If he was lucky, Alfeegi would be in the library and Ruwalk could watch him from behind the shelves as Alfeegi sat tranquilly and hummed or sang softly as he worked on various reports.

Ruwalk never made his presence known, always made sure to stay as quiet as possible and slip away unnoticed.

But sometimes, Alfeegi would glance up towards his general direction and hurriedly turn back to his work, and there would be a slight tinge of crimson on his face, making Ruwalk wonder if he did know.

He could never really be sure though, since Alfeegi never mentioned it and wouldn't look up again afterwards.

Maybe there was someone Alfeegi would sing for.

Crazy Meowmeow: Shame on you for cheating on Rath :laugh: I love practically all of them, jeez...

Kage: I know. Funny thing was, I just started the snippet with the first sentence, and then was like ... 'so, uh... how do I go on?'

Capella: Oh, but he's cute when he's cheerful! I fixed that screw up. I swear, I will have a multitude of Gillaam when I get into the Gillaam mood (halfway done with impeding Gillaam) I'm such a slow worker...

Aquajogger: Hm, I hadn't thought of that. I like those calm before the storm moments, cause you get to see a little bit of the mundane side of everyone, and I just adore that. part of the reason I started writing snippets, though I'm not too good at them yet. About the smut... I don't do smut. I can't. First off, it's against my morals (yes, I've read some not-so-good things, but writing it's out of the question) and second... don't know how. The Alfeegi/Ruwalk fic is probably as close as I'll ever get. Now, yuri... I'll see if there's anything I can come up with...

Angstluver: Shydeman/fedelta... hm... They're a bit shadier characters because not much is portrayed of them... but I'll see if I make something up...

Kitty: You did get it back, right? I'm not really any good, and sory if I intruded in your piece too much... :sweatdrop:

Misty: Rath/Rune is cute : )

Eikou: Thank you! I try to do these well... BlueFilm helps out a lot with my stuff as my betaer too.

Famin: That one was funny. I just had to write the baby one, even if it was stupid at first, and my first idea of it sucked. Here's the Alfeegi/RUwalk.

Thank you guys! Next is Cesia/Rath, followed by... who knows. Thatz/Kitchel, Gillaam, Tintlet/Rune, sometime I'll write that Lykouleon/Nadil and Shydeman/Gil, oh, and that odd Ruwalk/Tetheus floating around in my head...
