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

[echoes]

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. doompaw and I wrote this weird comment fic about Katie bullying Bradley, I discussed the repercussions of such an event with thisissirius, and then I ran into this conversation I once had about Bradley being weird with sophieisgod and this baby was born. YOU CAN BLAME THEM FOR THIS.

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

I LOVE HOW ANTHONY IS ALWAYS JUMPING IN ON CONVERSATIONS WITH THE COOL KIDS. HE IS YOUNG AT HEART.

BRADLEY: *RUNS OFF WITH COLIN*
ANGEL: YOU GUYS ARE HORRIBLE.
KATIE: ???
ANGEL: I DON'T THINK THAT THEY THINK YOU KNOW THE TRUTH ABOUT THEIR SEKRIT ROMANCE.
KATIE: BUT THAT JUST MAKES IT FUNNIER. D:
ANTHONY HEAD: DID YOU HEAR BRADLEY'S EXCUSE FOR THAT HICKEY ON HIS NECK? SAID A LAMP FELL ON HIM!
KATIE: LOLZ.
ANGEL: ...

ANTHONY IS ONE OF THE COOL KIDS. HE'S THE ONE WHO TOLD THEM TO STOP DRINKING MILK. I HEAR IT'S BAD FOR YOUR BONES OR SOMETHING. THAT'S WHAT ANTHONY SAID.

He said a lamp fell on him! OH, BRADLEY.

BRADLEY: OMG, WE HAVE TO COME UP WITH A GOOD STORY FOR WHERE WE WERE.
COLIN: UH, I'M PRETTY SURE THEY ALL KNOW.
BRADLEY: !!!
BRADLEY: ...
BRADLEY: OH! YOU'RE JOKING!

LATER, TO CAMERA:

BRADLEY: ...BUT NOW I'VE ATTUNED MYSELF TO HIS SENSE OF HUMOUR, WHICH IS PRETTY DARK, ACTUALLY.
COLIN: NO HE HASN'T.

ANTHONY'S WORD IS LAW. MILK IS BAD FOR YOUR BONES! SPREAD THE WORD!

KATIE: *DUCKS HEAD IN* MERLIN FANS, YOU SHOULD KNOW THAT BRADLEY REGULARLY GETS LAMPS DROPPED ON HIM. UNFORTUNATE.
BRADLEY: AJL;DAKFJDL;AFJ;KDJ SHUT UP KATIE.
KATIE: ALSO, COLIN LIKES PAPERCLIPS.
COLIN: ...YOU NEVER STOP, DO YOU?
ANTHONY HEAD: *DUCKS HEAD IN* SHE'S RIGHT, THOUGH.
BRADLEY: WHY DON'T YOU GUYS JUST GO AND MAKE YOUR OWN VIDEO DIARY???
KATIE: WE SHOULD. WE'LL CALL IT "WHAT COLIN AND BRADLEY DO IN SECLUDED CORNERS WHEN THEY THINK NO ONE'S LOOKING"
COLIN: !!!
BRADLEY: WHAT IS THAT SUPPOSED TO MEAN?
KATIE: IT WAS A JOKE, GOD...
