Godzilla (83 words)

We're watching this Griffin?" David hefted the DVD case in the hand not holding the popcorn bucket. "Really?"

"Course!" Griffin replied, reaching up to steal a handful of the popcorn as David grumbled and set about finding the sweet spot on the couch. "It's a classic, y'know."

"But Godzilla versus Mothra? Seriously?" Griffin just grinned at David and hit the play button. David took a moment to chuck a couple of kernels of popcorn at his friend; then settled in for the movie.


Hickey (158 words)

"GRIFFIN!" David's bellow drew Griffin away from his makeshift kitchen into the bedroom area in the back of his current lair. David was standing before the small mirror Griffin had mounted, fingering a lovely black mark on his neck.

"Griffin, what the hell is this?" The man in question couldn't hold back his smug smile.

"A hickey, love. Would've figured you'd have known that by now." The tone must have rankled David because he spun away from the mirror to address his boyfriend face-to-face.

"There are teeth marks in it! TEETH MARKS Griffin! I look like the survivor of a bad vampire romance novel!" At this Griffin let out a sharp bark of laughter, before sliding closer and bringing his hands to his irate lover's hips.

"If it bothers you so much, you should see the one you left on my…" Griffin didn't have to finish, the scandalized look on David's face was entertaining enough as it was.


Improvisation (115 words)

"For someone who's so damn observant when tracking those blasted Paladins, you sure are oblivious in everything else!" With that, David whirled and jumped away, leaving a baffled Griffin in his wake. The befuddled man literally had no clue as to what his friend had been on about before his sudden exit, unless… Slowly, the pieces fell in to place, a pattern emerging in David's behavior toward Griffin in the last few months. Realization dawning, Griffin cursed himself a thousand times the fool before throwing himself through David's fading jumpscar. He had to find the other man and apologize. Or maybe just snog him on the spot and see how it worked out, Griffin was open to improvisation.
