Body Language

( There are a variety of ways to pull Mark out of a coding binge—glaring at him until he notices, waving your hands in front of his face, poking him with pens—but the most effective with the least danger to the disruptor’s well-being is to rest a hand on his shoulder, unobtrusive but persistent. )

Title: the idea of growing old

Fandom: The Social Network
Genre: Romance
Pairing: Chris/Dustin
Rating: PG
Word Count: 2,100
Summary: Chris thought kids would be something that happened to other people, but maybe he'd come to that conclusion a little hastily.
Notes: (1) Part of my in other words 'verse and also an explicit prequel to one day we'll tell the story of us by indecentexposed. (2) My thanks to indecentexposed for letting me play in her world, to opheliahyde for being an amazing beta, and to alexthegreat for reminding me that diabetes from fic isn't necessarily bad. (3) Title is shamelessly nicked from "The Idea of Growing Old," by The Features.

the idea of growing old

( But now he’s standing in the shade and watching Dustin get pinned to the ground and tickled by a giggling three-year-old in a garishly pink dress and—well, he thinks he could probably get used to seeing that. )

Because of a conversation I had with [Poll #1763689]My apologies for the US-centric nature of the regional options, but I'm most interested in whether it's a regional dialect thing within the States or not. Thanks for voting!

Title: somewhere in the crowd there's you
Author: daisysusan 
Fandom: The Social Network
Genre: Angst, romance
Paring: Chris/Dustin
Rating: PG-13
Word Count: ~6,500
Summary: As it turns out, even the most stable relationship is hard when you're two time zones and a five hour flight away from your boyfriend; or, Chris goes to work for the Obama campaign. This story exists in the same universe as in other words, but there's nothing there you need to know.
Notes: (1) All my thanks to the lovely opheliahyde for reading this over and telling me, basically, where it sucked, and also to alexthegreat for providing suggestions and putting up with my babble about this. (2) The title is from the ABBA song Super Trouper, for which I really have no excuse. (3) I am always, always open to constructive criticism. (4) Now with a soundtrack here, added 7/26/11.

somewhere in the crowd there's you

( The problem is that they fight so little that they're not good at it. Well, obviously they can fight, but they're not good at the aspect of it where they can be in a fight and still be totally and obviously in love. )

Title: still your song
Author: daisysusan 
Fandom: The Social Network
Genre: Romance
Paring: Mark/Eduardo
Rating: PG-13 for language (technically, I think, the language in here would get it an R from the MPAA, but let's not split hairs)
Word Count: ~14,000
Summary: Sometimes Eduardo thinks about his life, because that's the only way to make sense of it all.
Notes: (1) There is a soundtrack to go with this, because apparently that is something I do now. You can download it here. The cover art is from this flickr photostream. (2) Title of the fic is shamelessly, shamelessly stolen from the Goo Goo Dolls'—wait for it—"Still Your Song," which is, unsurprisingly, on the soundtrack. (3) I am eternally grateful to lanewinree for putting up with more than a month of crazy-hands while I tried to figure out what was happening in my life with the this, hm_yrie for being a lovely test audience and answering my inane questions about legal technicalities, and moogle62 for generally being a sexy pudding boar. (4) I am always, always open to constructive criticism.

still your song
( With a detached sort of surprise, he realizes that he’s never thought through that part of the story before. Gretchen, Sy, they never asked. For all that the depositions were an unraveling of his friendship with Mark, no one cared why they were friends in the first place. )

Fandom: The Social Network

Rating: NC-17 (yeah, this happened)
Word Count: ~4,000
Summary: Five times Chris doesn't take Dustin seriously and one time he does.
Notes: (1) This was originally posted here at the kink meme, for the prompt Five times no one took Dustin seriously and one time somebody did. (2) The title, vague as it is, was inspired by the Frank Sinatra song "Fly Me to the Moon," which has recurring lyrics like "in other words, hold my hand, in other words, baby, kiss me" and "in other words, I love you." (3) Many thanks to hm_yrie and moogle62 for reading this over and helping me through my crippling insecurity about writing smut (and especially to Ri for helping me with the bits I didn't like). (4) I am always, always open to constructive criticism because I'd love to get better at this whole writing deal.

in other words

( He doesn’t know any more, can never tell what’s appropriate around Chris because everything he does feels like a come-on or a cheap trick just to be able to touch him, and he spends every second worried that Chris will see right through him. )

Above the Line of Fire

( He knew every perfectly valid reason that he might not be permitted to join the squadron; he had already heard every objection from his compromised mental state to his questionable loyalties and back again. )
