Another one. I literally wrote this in the time that the song took to play. I love writing drabbles this way, I did it for Supernatural a few years ago, it does create some odd stuff though.
Tongue - Seether.
He is not known for being a man to keep his thoughts and opinions to himself. If Lorne has an opinion on a matter it will either be voiced through his words or his expression and it has taken a great deal of time for him to learn to school his opinions in such a way that they do not get him immediately reprimanded. It comes as a relief to know that his C.O. appreciates his candour and Lorne has to admit that he is grateful for the fact that John Sheppard treats him in the same way.
His smart mouth may get him into trouble as often as it gets him out of it, but at least he knows that it is welcome even as the words that slip past his lips and roll off his tongue feel like they might be his last. He is no stranger to the possibility that he might die, but he has to wonder if this was the way that it was meant to be.
