The Aftermath Of Paperclips And Partial Nudity // Merlin RPF // Colin/Bradley

Title: The Aftermath Of Paperclips And Partial Nudity
Fandom: Merlin RPF
Character/Pairing: Colin/Bradley, appearances by Angel, Katie, and Joe Dempsie
Rating: PG-13
Word Count: ~800
Summary: In which the Paperclip Incident makes stuff happen. Four separate conversations taking place during another one of those Important Meetings. Prequel-type thing to Passing Notes.
Notes: OK, so. [livejournal.com profile] doompaw and I wrote this weird comment fic about Katie bullying Bradley, I discussed the repercussions of such an event with [livejournal.com profile] thisissirius, and then I ran into this conversation I once had about Bradley being weird with [livejournal.com profile] sophieisgod and this baby was born. YOU CAN BLAME THEM FOR THIS.

Also, while you're here: [livejournal.com profile] facesofbradley (run by [livejournal.com profile] thisissirius and [livejournal.com profile] lonelyfajita), a comm about Bradley's Stupid Face. IT'S AS AWESOME AS IT SOUNDS, AND I LOVE IT TO A RIDICULOUS DEGREE.

DUDE, "THEY ARE UNFIXABLE" ALMOST GOT CUT BECAUSE I WAS LIKE, "...IS THIS EVEN GRAMMATICALLY CORRECT? I DON'T THINK THIS IS GRAMMATICALLY CORRECT"

BUT THEN I REMEMBERED THAT THIS WAS BRADLEY I WAS TALKING ABOUT. BRADLEY DEFIES THE LAWS OF GRAMMAR.

Thank you for reading! ♥

Bradley's default setting is "confused", methinks. OR "RIDICULOUS".

Thank you for reading! *g*

BRADLEY'S SECRET FANTASY OF ROMANTIC SNOGGING IN A BROOM CLOSET IN THE MIDDLE OF THE AFTERNOON HAS BEEN CRUSHED. BY COLIN'S REALISM.

(YES YOU HAVE. YOU TOTALLY HAVE.)

Thank you for reading! :DDD

1) EVEN COLIN CAPSLOCKS IN MOMENTS OF PANIC.

I'm so happy you liked it! Thanks for reading. ♥

WELL, YOU ASKED FOR IT.

Bradley doesn't quite recall how he ended up being raised by ponies. It was all quite strange. Though he remembers something about apples, an inexplicable fire, and a map of Ireland. The ponies were totally cooler than regular parents, though. They let him eat whatever, and prance around in meadows of flowers, and all was good.

There were the obvious communication blocks, of course, but Bradley had learned to convey things using a special form of interpretive dance (the ponies mostly blinked and flicked their tails a lot when he did this, but Bradley was convinced there was secret understanding in their eyes).

IT IS EASIER TO WRITE "BRADLEY IS RAISED BY PONIES" FIC THAN YOU MIGHT THINK.


Thanks for reading, darling. ♥

AHAHAHAHA, ALLOW ME TO EXPLAIN THROUGH INTERPRETIVE DANCE!! <3 <3

You know, it is strangely plausible that Bradley was raised by ponies. I believe it.

[identity profile] thisissirius.livejournal.com 2008-12-03 01:15 am (UTC)(link)
THEY WOULD THINK IT WAS HILARIOUS, FOR SURE. AND ALSO AN ADVENTURE. AT LEAST UNTIL ONE OF THEM BECAME STUCK AND THEY HAD TO EXPLAIN IT AWAY. I AM SURE THEY WOULD BLAME THE PAPERCLIPS, SOMEHOW.

OMG LIKE I WOULDN'! DKJSAHJKDSAKF. ♥
