Drabble: I only want it to begin - Duck/Dan (Wilby Wonderful)

[I only want it to begin] - Duck/Dan
for dorrie6's first lines challenge. also, this is accidentally a curtain fic. oops.

It was a small cottage, at least from the outside; its yellow paint cracked and faded. Nothing lasted long that close to the water, but Duck figured he could slap on a few coats no problem. "I've painted over worse," he said, and in his voice Dan could hear the years of people knowing or guessing, and Duck not hiding, whatever their conclusions.

Dan stepped back, eyeing the house and the sea and Duck. "Might have to again," he said.

"Maybe so," Duck agreed, with a look Dan felt all through him, "but this time I'll have help."

Oh, dude. See, curtain fic with them is okay, because they already been through all the crazy finding each other and stuff, and they deserve a little curtain fic if you ask me!

This is awesome. Like. Yeah. It just brings back all the love I have for these two and makes me need to watch this movie again, and now I am just really, really happy.

That is just gorgeous and perfect.

"to shield the unprotected user from the risk of skin abrasions, serious head trauma, and, of course... daleks"

the "of course... daleks" is clearly the best part. that show is so well-written, seriously.
