drabble: perhaps. gandalf, dumbledore

[perhaps] - gandalf, dumbledore for [livejournal.com profile] meganberrieh

One would expect they'd have met earlier. At a convention for clones of Moses, perhaps, Moses crossed with Merlin plus a dash of St. Paul in the wilderness. Perhaps they might have met at a support group, Pipeweed Anonymous. Actually, you would expect they'd have met long before any of that, preventing the rising of one Dark Lord or another, details lost to history.

Perhaps it doesn't matter how they met at all, only that they did, and that now they can swap tricks of the trade and sherbet lemons, then watch the fireworks in companionable silence atop a hill.

OMG OMG OMG OMG OMG how do I love thee? Let me count the ways.

Or not. I cannot count that high. And I could count well into the thousands in kindergarten.

Clones of Moses? Pipeweed Anonymous?

Marry me. Or at least have my ficbabies.

That was so sweet and perfect. The tone was just right, and I could imagine it far too easily. Ahh, if only. :)

Hi! [livejournal.com profile] musesfool recced you in a drabble poll, and being pressed for time I picked this drabble at random.

I don't even know what I can say. It's just so perfect. Two old men, who have seen and fought and won and lost so many things...fireworks and sherbet lemons. Beautiful.

I'll definitely be back to read more of your works.

really? can i ask where? hee.

this one is a bit different from what i usually do, but i do many odd crossovers. i dig the challenge. thank you!

The drabble poll is here (http://www.livejournal.com/users/louiselux/207813.html). The poll itself was featured on [livejournal.com profile] daily_snitch, and I found the rec in the answers.

Here's hoping the tags work this time...they were misbehaving earlier.
