another drabble

I honestly don't know how I find the time to do this, but I wrote another drabble. This one is 200 words. I am not completely satisfied with it, but somehow I haven't been able to make it better, so here it is. For anyone who has a minute or two to spare and feels like taking a look.;)

Title: Immortal
Author: floatingleaf
Pairing: Aragorn/Legolas
Rating: R
Summary: Legolas' thoughts
Disclaimer: Sadly, I do not own these characters, nor do I make any money by expressing my love for them...



He thought nothing could surprize him any more.
He thought he knew everything about life and his own desires.
He thought calm, detached and self-sufficient was the right way to be.
He was in no hurry to find true love. He could wait forever. He was immortal.

But when the stormy blue-gray eyes of the Man pierced his soul, all his convictions shattered within a moment.
Suddenly he was desperate to know the meaning of passion, to experience it as deeply as possible - before he is deprived of his only chance of fulfillment by the cruel threat of mortality.

And when he found himself in the Man's fervent embrace, his legendary elven composure abandoning him faster than the clothes torn carelessly from his body, he knew that no matter how many centuries he would live after that, the peak of his existence was now. Yes, now - as he lay beneath the heavy weight of his mortal lover, naked in flesh and soul, needy and vulnerable. How had he endured so long without it? How soon will he lose it again?

One thing was certain - no matter how fleeting men's lives might seem, this one was already immortal within his heart.

Holy buckets. I haven't had time to read your fics yet. If they are the same I will probably have a heart attack. See you in heaven then. <333

I haven't posted much so far - there's another drabble and a PWP ficlet (both V/O) if you scroll down my LJ a bit (sorry, but I'm a computer moron and don't know how to give direct links...), and an A/L PWP saved in my memories (under "mine"). I have two or three more pieces like that, but they're handwritten and need some editing, so it will take some time before I post them...

I will probably have a heart attack. See you in heaven then.

It's YOU who gives ME a heart attack every time with the scorching hotness you write! And I wrote my A/L ficlet mainly because I couldn't stand the unresolved sexual tension in your Sins... I just decided I'm going to let them have it all at once, lol. So yeah... see you in heaven, where our lovely boys roll around unrestrained all the time... :D :D :D <3333333

Posting links in comments is easy! Find the page you want to link to, copy or cut the Web address, then paste it into the comment or the journal entry. There is also a toolbar for the entries of course, tell me please if you want me to tell you how to hide a link under a word.

Now, if I inspire you to write such hotness then I must immedieately finish Greed part one and post it *g* it is just that all these other bits and pieces of 7DS keep poking at my mental doorstep and want to come in. Always other parts than the current part I am writing :) pleasant problem I admit.

Would you please define "unresolved sexual tension"? So that I can figure out for how long I will keep inspiring you *giggles*

*loves you madly*

Thanks for the tutorial!:)
So should I use the info and try to give you a link to my fic, or have you found it already?:P

Yes, you should post Greed part 1 as soon as possible.;) I responded to your poll, and said just that, btw. I am generally a patient person, but when it comes to your fics, I can't have them soon enough.:D

As for unresolved sexual tension, well... I know they did all kinds of pervy things together, but they didn't actually, um... *insert an indecent four letter word here*
And until they do, they will be both obsessed with it, and so will I.;P Which is not to say that they will be less obsessed about each other AFTER they do it.:D So yeah... you might well keep inspiring me forever. *winks*

*loves you so madly it's almost scary* ;D

Oh! Why don't you practice your new knowledge by pasting the link to the fic in a reply? I honestly cannot wait to read it but have not been relaxed enough to sit down and do it yet. *begs nicely*

Live is slowly returning after a spring from hell. Not only are A and L coming alive before my eyes (most of Greed will be written from scratch just following my storyline, fun but makes me a bit nervous too)- perhaps perhaps a V/O fic is taking shape in my head.

But I will not do any of that until I feel I have plenty of time. For now, I will concentrate on Greed and the unresolved sexual tension that will definitely wear the dear Man and Elf down more and more fic that I hope you can link me to.

Love back so mucho, mucho, mucho. <333

OK. Here you go:

I hope it works! *crosses fingers*

Oh yes it worked, I have copied and sent it to my phone for later enjoyment. Thank you!

*lots of love*

It's wonderful, given what we've been talking about, to check my flist and find this from you. :D I love how you said so much with so few words. I saw it and felt it, and I love how it only took one moment, and Legolas was lost. Perfect. Of course he can't wait forever now. :)

the peak of his existence was now.

I love that. That sums it up completely.

this one was already immortal within his heart.

And that just lifts my romantic heart. :D

I love how you said so much with so few words.

Thank you. That was my goal. I'm so glad it worked.

it only took one moment, and Legolas was lost

The most romantic notion ever. Love at first sight. Even if it doesn't really happen that way, we can allow ourselves the luxury of dreaming, right? ;P

And having people like you on my flist lifts MY romantic heart. <33333

It's something I admire, being a rambler, and most of my fics get loooong! :(

The most romantic notion ever. Love at first sight. Even if it doesn't really happen that way, we can allow ourselves the luxury of dreaming, right? ;P

In this imperfect world, I cling to my romantic notions, but with them, it just feels so right, so believable, because of course it would be that way for them, you know? :)

And having people like you on my flist lifts MY romantic heart. <33333

*hugs* Yes. :) We have to stick together, us romantics, and share stories... Perhaps I idealise it all, but I don't care. I like it. It makes me happy.

[identity profile] floatingleaf.livejournal.com 2005-04-24 11:35 am (UTC)(link)
Yes! Let's stick together and cling to our idealised visions of love and beauty. It doesn't harm anyone, and to people like us it's the air we breathe, so let's dream on...

[identity profile] niennas-dreams.livejournal.com 2005-04-24 12:05 pm (UTC)(link)
Nothing wrong with dreaming. It's pretty blissful in fact. And if it makes you happy... :D

Ohhhhh.. so sweet and needy and *sigh* lovely.

[identity profile] floatingleaf.livejournal.com 2005-04-06 08:43 pm (UTC)(link)
Thank you so very much... <333

This is breathtakingly beautiful! Gorgeous. I cannot even isolate one single line I want to quote because they're all so stunningly interwoven. <3 Wow...

[identity profile] floatingleaf.livejournal.com 2010-05-27 04:27 am (UTC)(link)
Really?... That was one of the first drabbles I wrote, and I felt a bit self-conscious about it. I can't believe some people liked it so much... *blushes again*
