I did this one for [livejournal.com profile] music_simbol, since she mentioned it yesterday and got me thinking on it again. It's not as detailed as you had suggested (it's only 100 words, ya know?), but that will come later. For now, you get this drabble.






He wasn't aiming for love.

In all honesty, Tank considered love to be a little too much to ask for. It was a little out of his reach.

Right now, he'd settle for the sort of night where you never saw the person again, and wouldn't want to, because you'd done things that only animals would do. To look at them in the light of day would ruin everything. The illusion would be shattered.

But that was his libido speaking. His heart wanted more. It wanted the “hands pinned to the headboards” abandon, but also the comfort that came afterwards.

$15.73?

We're going to need to better than this, people. Even in my neighborhood, a hummer's going to cost at LEAST twenty.

Well, in MY neighbourhood, you can supposedly avail of the services of Two Dollar Nancy for a mere twonie. (No, I'm not making it up, the poor thing.)

Also, you're wasting your time. Tank has already said he would never be able to go through with hiring a professional.

Volunteering for charity is NEVER a waste of time.

I'm sure there's some other guy (or gal) who could put the $15.73 to good use.

Ooh, I just started a sexual Make A Wish Foundation!

That's why we hire him the perfect one night stand without him knowing she's a pro.

With a plan this foolproof, what could possibly go wrong?!

Don't worry. You can't jinx perfection. ;)

Nothing ever goes wrong for anyone in my story. Everything works out for everyone EVERY time. ;)

We're good.

We hire him the Hooker With The Heart Of Gold, who picks him up at the library one night and takes him home. But then she starts to fall for him, and he starts to fall for her, but Oh! Lucy starts to notice him and he's torn between his love for the hooker (who hasn't told him she still turns tricks on the side) and Lucy. Then Lucy finds out the girl is a hooker and she tells Tank and Trouble Begins!

How fresh and original! :D I like it. I mean, who's ever seen a Hooker With a Heart of Gold in a story before?

I know! It's never been done before. It'll be groundbreaking. I bet Hollywood will be following your example soon!

^This.

And I will admit that I was desperately hoping that Tits was some stripper/hooker/etc. that had stumbled into Tank's life one desperate, sexy night and now she's living with him and they get into hijinks together and he treats her right so she loves him and y'know... that sort of thing.....

Oh, you. :P

Maybe Tits will be a stripper. The story isn't over yet.

(Also, that's such a cute icon. I love that shot - it's one of my best ones, I think.)

[identity profile] leskuh.livejournal.com 2009-03-31 08:49 pm (UTC)(link)
But even if she becomes a stripper she is STILL A ROBOT.

ROBOTS CANNOT LOVE.

(I love it and that shot of them IS basically one of the cutest in the history of ever OMG. It's the one that really nailed home Beau/Franny for me!)

Now we need for Ripp and Tank to both fall for Tits!

[identity profile] leskuh.livejournal.com 2009-03-31 08:52 pm (UTC)(link)
Wouldn't that just be Ripp/Ripp/Tank?

Oh god I just threw up in my mouth a little.
