FIClet: Nothing

[emony]

For bitterbyrden, based on this icon, and the request that: "I'd like to see what happens to Tucker when he doesn't get what he wants."

Thanks to niannah for the quick beta. 200 words exactly. Yay :)

It's not like he's in love with Warren or anything. He isn't. Never will be. Never could be.

Warren drifts in and out of his life from time to time, but it's not like he's that important. Not really. He's not even that special. He could be anyone, anyone who'd fill the function of being someone, somewhere that Tucker could go when he needs a break. The fact that he goes to Warren every single time doesn't mean anything. Warren's just convenient. He's just there.

So he doesn't really care when Warren leaves.

He doesn't care that Warren chooses Andrew over him.

He doesn't care that they've spent weeks, maybe even months, pretty much literally joined at the brain, only for Warren to up and disappear the second Andrew drops by and shakes his ass.

He doesn't care that Warren barely even thinks of him as Andrew and Jonathan lead him away from the house.

In fact, he barely notices Warren's absence from the house, and when he lies back on the bed and opens a vein for Meg to pour her magical liquid relief straight into his soul, it's got nothing to do with Warren. Nothing at all.

Lol! Given the circumstances, that's really quite an achievement *g* Thank you. I'm glad you enjoyed a little final foray into the DMAUverse. I enjoyed it too :)

This is such a great opening line. We know it's lies from the start.

The fact that he goes to Warren every single time doesn't mean anything. Warren's just convenient. He's just there.

Uh huh. Sure.

Andrew's ass cracks me up. *g*

I love this. So short, yet so apt and fits so well into the DMAU verse. So much deception there of one sort or another.

Very nicely written. :)

Thank you :) It was very easy to write, it just happened on its own. I like fic that writes itself *g*

Hi. Sorry, it's entirely random if you don't know not just the fandom but the 'verse it's written in! It's a Buffy the Vampire Slayer ficlet, set in a series I've written which doesn't really have a proper title, I just refer to it as Dark Magic AU (http://www.circa-now.net/emony/fic/darkm.html).

Thanks. I was doing a "read-by," saw the name Tucker and being the fine ENTERPRISE fan I am, stopped to look.

Not familiar with the characters, true. But I quite like the BUFFYverse! Anything that keeps it alive and kicking (so to speak)...
