Pros Drabble - The Most Heroic

The Most Heroic
by Slantedlight

Wind rushed where there should have been no wind, stars screamed by, and dawn was distant on the horizon. Loud in the night he could hear the wail of the gnashing Valkyries, the roar of their furred steeds, and… something else?

A whisper.

A broken, wet-rimmed whisper, calling above everything else.

Bodiecomebackdon'tletthemwinit'llbealrightyou'llseewe'llgetyoufixedupbegoodasnewdon'tleavemedon'tleavemedon'tleaveme…

So he opened to it, the burning heat of his chest, the hard weight of his lungs, and he moaned with the red-hot pain, but he felt Doyle's hands, warm, and when he opened his eyes there was Doyle himself, Valkyries spitting ire as they fled.

Not yet.

A drabble-by-request for She-Who-Shall-Not-Be-Named... *g* SWSNBN asked for Bodie, Doyle, and the ride of the Valkyries. Ride of the Valkyries - I ask you! *g*

Wow, that's great. I love Valkyries but only if they stay away from our lads. So thanks to Doyle for shooing them away *sticks tongue out at he retreating bunch*

Thank you!

Ride of the Valkyries - I ask you!

See what friends get you into?? Still, you came through marvelously well! You just keep those Valkyries spitting ire, right?*g* Thank you!

See what friends get you into??
Oh, you love it really... *g*

They do spit ire quite well, Valkyries... *g*

I'm so impressed that you get the Valkyries and Bodie and Doyle into a drabble that makes sense.*g* I think I would have run screaming for the hills..

[byslantedlight.livejournal.com]

Oh, you'd've come up with something fabulous... *g* But glad it made sense for you! I could let them have him...

[byslantedlight.livejournal.com]

Couldn't - couldn't let them have him... *headdesk*

[melanieathene.livejournal.com]

Oh, I like this!

Those Valkyries didn't stand a chance against Doyle. :)

[byslantedlight.livejournal.com]

Thank you! And of course they didn't... both or neither!

[smirra.livejournal.com]

You made good use of the Valkyries! Only Bodie can see something like that in his near-death-dreams! LOL I like it.

[byslantedlight.livejournal.com]

Hee - well, I reckon they both have different kind of consciences... *g* Thank you!

[sc-fossil.livejournal.com]

Yea, Doyle! *g* Thanks, J. I love a feisty Ray saving his Bodie. .

[byslantedlight.livejournal.com]

Hee - Ray always saves his Bodie... unless perhaps the Valkyries come for them both... And you're welcome! *g*

Excellent!
(I especially like the brilliance of turning an entire paragraph into one word - I feel B/D would have approved of the sneakiness!)

Blimey, they're scary those valkyries ... so glad Bodie came back. I really loved this, and it reminded me of that video for Shakespear's Sister where some horrible valkyrie woman who used to be in Bananarama was trying to get her mitts on some bloke lying on a slab ... or something *g* But this drab was way better ... oh dear, am OD'ing on caffeine after no sleep, just ignore me.

Hahahahaha - you are so clever! So many nice things in this - stars screamed by, wet-rimmed whisper, Valkyries spitting ire - wow. Am impressed by what you can do with a drabble!

[hutchynstarsk.livejournal.com]

I loved this drabble. It's just perfect. <3 :D

[byslantedlight.livejournal.com]

Well thank you - and how lovely to have feedback on something I wrote so long ago! *g*

[nickygabriel]

Aww, that was beautiful :)
