Yet another one (Drabble #15)

[oudeteron]

Yes, it's here! Also, my computer has a problem today.

Title: Silent Exultation
Pairing: Albus/Gellert
Prompt: "Rain, ruby, pearl" for aurora_knight.
Summary: A rainy summer day out of sight.
Notes: I hope like mad this doesn't come off as too melodramatic.
Disclaimer: The Harry Potter universe belongs to JKR. What am I to that but free entertainment?

The rain pelting down is the most exhilarating sensation Albus has ever experienced – but that may have something to do with his lips gliding along Gellert’s neck. The two of them have taken refuge behind a bush, also dripping wet, shielding them from view as they cling hotly to each other. The kiss that comes later is sloppy but wonderful, and when Albus pulls away, he feels the warmth of the other’s breath on his face, laboured little gasps passing between lips gleaming like polished ruby. And Gellert draws him closer.

They vanish together in a shroud of pearl-coloured mist.

Dude, you better be planning to take the jump into full-on smut soon, because at this point, you're just teasing.

Lovely, lovely fic by the way. Almost makes me want it to rain. (Almost, weather gods!)

[oudeteron.livejournal.com]

Mwahaha! I know, I had better write something smutty soon to make up for all this shameless innuendo. (If a "true blue drabble" could have 200 words instead of 100, maybe I could have tried... XD)

Thanks a lot. I hope it doesn't make it rain on you!

[mustntgetmy.livejournal.com]

Do it in a long fic!

Sigh, the damn weather gods didn't listen to me. At least all that yucky, dirty snow is gone now.

[oudeteron.livejournal.com]

I will do it in the long one!

That's funny, it rained yesterday here too. At least it cleaned the place up. ^_^

[mustntgetmy.livejournal.com]

Yay!

That's the good thing about rain, it makes everything squeaky clean :)

[oudeteron.livejournal.com]

Exactly! And hey, I kind of like rain anyway. ; )

[mustntgetmy.livejournal.com]

Hahaha, well, I like rain when I don't have to walk out in it (ie when I'm at home and not in the city).

[oudeteron.livejournal.com]

Well, I like rain when it's not ridiculously cold. Which was totally the case today!

[mustntgetmy.livejournal.com]

Gah, stupid weather gods! *shakes fist at sky*

[oudeteron.livejournal.com]

Haha, I'm pretending there isn't any weather at all. XD

[rising-lark.livejournal.com]

Wow, you just made my morning! XD <3

[oudeteron.livejournal.com]

Yay! Post at midnight, make someone's morning. ^_^

[seilf-emit.livejournal.com]

Whee! This is delicious!

I completely agree with what mustntgetmy said, you need to start writing serious pr0n soon, the unresolved sexual tension is slowly killing me!

I'm a sucker for subtly rhythmic prose, so I squealed embarrassingly when I read this.

Btw, I actually wanted to read it last night, and I know I was still awake at the time it says you posted it, but for some reason it didn't show up. But after what happened yesterday nothing really surprises me anymore. The internet hates me and I must learn to accept it! XD

[oudeteron.livejournal.com]

Thank you! ♥

And like I told mustntgetmy, yeah, I do need to! The tension is taking its toll on me, too! XD

Whee, I'm glad for that! I like having some kind of rhythm to writing.

Gah, computers strike again. Actually, it took a while after the recorded time before I even got to post this thing. Everything loaded slowly and was driving me insane! As if the computer had something against me posting this drabble. XD

[seilf-emit.livejournal.com]

*is excited about smut!* I can't wait!!! And I shall pic-spam you with certain *ahem* artwork until you post it!!!

And the right-wing computer conspiracy continues!!!

[oudeteron.livejournal.com]

Why, picspam away! Should I take this to mean you've GOT something? *hint hint*

Not on my end so far... Injustice. XD

[seilf-emit.livejournal.com]

Should I take this to mean you've GOT something?
Maybe...

[oudeteron.livejournal.com]

Ooh... ^_^

[seilf-emit.livejournal.com]

I sent it to the yahoo address in your profile, hope that's okay.

[oudeteron.livejournal.com]

Seen them just now! Awesome. ♥

[seilf-emit.livejournal.com]

Glad you like them ;)

[oudeteron.livejournal.com]

I hope you've noticed my longer reply. XD

[seilf-emit.livejournal.com]

Hm? What? Where?
*confuzzled*
Did you reply directly to my e-mail?
Or were you referring to something else?

[oudeteron.livejournal.com]

I did reply to the mail, actually.

[seilf-emit.livejournal.com]

Oh noes! I didn't get it! The internet-suckiness continues!!!!

[oudeteron.livejournal.com]

Let it be said technology is sometimes made of fail. XD

[remeciel.livejournal.com]

Mm, sloppy kiss. This is indeed really intense and really, really hot. The kiss is wonderfully described. :)

[oudeteron.livejournal.com]

Thank you! I wanted to be straighforward about that kiss, but since it's a drabble, it had to be done just in a few words. Glad you liked it. ^_^

[aurora-knight.livejournal.com]

Lovely! I like the idea of these two finding out-of-the-way places to hide with each other - although I can see them being rather careless about it at times. :)

They are both so hot.

[oudeteron.livejournal.com]

Glad you liked it! Much as I like the idea of them being careless to the point of hazard (sure, they could make the Muggles forget everything, but what about fellow wizards?), having them find nice hidden places is fun too.

Yes, they are. XD

[scarlet-chan.livejournal.com]

You are so good at imagry. I loved the drabble. ^_^

[oudeteron.livejournal.com]

Thanks! Imagery is one of my favourite things ever. ^_^

[lefaym.livejournal.com]

Mmmm, rain!sex.

There is something very sensual about rain, isn't there?

[oudeteron.livejournal.com]

Unless we both just have a rain fetish, there really is something about rain that makes it such an appropriate setting for these scenes. Especially the warm summer rain... ^_^

[prelude07.livejournal.com]

Melodramatic? Not at all!

Beautiful and poetic as always. But there's also something sweet about this. The image of the rain and mist creates the perfect atmosphere as well. I love kisses in the rain!

[oudeteron.livejournal.com]

Hehe, good thing. xD

I'm really pleased to hear that from you since it's just the effect I was trying to get across. (And I love rainy imagery!) Besides, poor Albus and Gellert need to get some undisturbed fun against all the sadness that comes into the relationship later on!
