Greetings and salutations on this Sunday of Sentences! And thank you to @shrekgogurt for the tag (and the Diana Ross earworm 🥰)
It doesn't feel like Wednesday was very long ago, but despite injuring my hand in some completely unknown way, I have managed to do more work on my CORB fic. For those following along at home, I've also got to the point of learning La Vie en Rose where I couldn't sing it through off by heart, but I know where all the words go in terms of the melody if that makes sense. So if I see the words out of context, I know how to sing those specific lines. Which is good enough for the purpose I needed to know it for.
(Not that I plan to stop with my quest.)
I know you're probably all here for the fic though, so here's some Niall POV from the second chapter:
Dev does the confused puppy look again. Crowley, it’s too fucking adorable. “You were right? What about?” “Snow’s face when he saw Baz. That was not the face of someone who hates what he’s seeing.” His confusion deepens. I take a step closer so I can keep my voice from reaching Baz. Maybe I’m not right, I wouldn’t want to get his hopes up only to crush them. “When Snow first saw Baz, he looked… kind of awestruck to be honest. Granted, it was a similar look to the one he gives a plate of scones, but since he’s practically in love with food…” I keep looking at him to see if this is sinking in. I can tell when the lightbulb goes on. His mouth opens in a surprised ‘O’, and he takes another look between them. “You’re saying that Baz’s feeling’s aren’t unrequited?”
I'm not quite sure why I love the idea of Niall being that quiet guy who just knows stuff, but generally doesn't get involved unless he has good reason to, or is specifically asked to, but I do. Maybe because that feels a bit like me? Easily intimidated and talked/looked over, but full of knowledge and ideas if you're willing to listen.
Note that I don't say they're good ideas. Or useful knowledge. But then again, you never know 😉
Virtual high fives and good wishes for my tag buddies in 3...2...1...
