Drabble: Love

Warnings: references to sexual situations

I did this one for 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.

Tank is one of these guys I do and don't like at the same time: half the time he's acting like an idiot, but when it comes to something serious, he's not what you're thinking he was. This is what I love about Tank!

OK, people! *rattles can* I'm taking up a collection to buy Tank Grunt a hooker.

*rummages in pants pocket* LOOK, I have five bucks here to start. Who's in?

(really, he needs to go to a professional to clear his. . .uh. . .head)

[music-simbol.livejournal.com]

Awwwwwwww. That's not too much to ask for. Bet he thinks he could get this with Lucy. :D Didn't get either with Kendell, so on to greener pastures!

*throws ten bucks on the can*

Hellz yeah! Get this boy some quality loving! I'm all for this! :D

$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.

Aww, poor Tank - sounds like he really needs some with no strings attached . . . and/or talk to a woman who actually knows herself and doesn't expect him to know her too. Y'know? ;)

But he's not the type to talk his issues, so the chances of that happening . . . :/

*control/shift/c*

*enters "motherlode"*

Alright, let's get this man some lovin'!

AND NOW IT IS LUCY TIME PLZ.

Seriously they would have cute babies and you wouldn't regret it at ALL.

[a-gates.livejournal.com]

it's Tank! no matter how screw up he is, i still love hearing about him :) oh and throws $$ 2.85 into the collection.

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.

[strange-tomato.livejournal.com]

Now we're talkin'.

[madame-ugly.livejournal.com]

Well played!

Now then, I've heard about this Club in this little neighborhood called Peculiar. . .

[madame-ugly.livejournal.com]

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!

[swhedonberry.livejournal.com]

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?!

[madame-ugly.livejournal.com]

*adjusts pimp hat*

[madame-ugly.livejournal.com]

WOOT.

We're up to $18.58!

[swhedonberry.livejournal.com]

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

[strange-tomato.livejournal.com]

*snicker* Nothing but class.

[strange-tomato.livejournal.com]

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

We're good.

[strange-tomato.livejournal.com]

I think I have a $3 bill somewhere. No, wait, it's a $3 COIN. My mistake. This is Canada, people.

[tanathir.livejournal.com]

Let's see...

*raids laundry fund quarters stash*

*plunks $6.50 into the can*

I don't mind parting with it; it's for a good cause. ;)

[madame-ugly.livejournal.com]

Damn, you're making me do math.

So your $3C is worth $2.37 US.

Hey, every little bit helps.

(new total $20.95--we have a blow job here, people!)

[madame-ugly.livejournal.com]

New total : $27.45

Not bad, not bad at all.

[xel-squirgle-ox.livejournal.com]

LOL! I knew that would be brought up. :P

[xel-squirgle-ox.livejournal.com]

My Tank certainly has gone off to greener pastures...
