A random drabble

[darcydodo]

I got inspired by "Five by Five" to write a little Faith/Lilah drabble.

Diamonds Become Her
There are diamonds in her ears, and the light trembles rainbows from them across her cheek. Satin sheets quietly rustle their promise, echoing an earlier pledge. I'm certain you won't be disappointed with our performance. No, there will be no disappointment here tonight. Now pale silk slides from paler shoulders, leaving Lilah's breasts goose-pimpled and exposed. Throaty laughter. "I suppose there were other intentions, really. You say you like to watch." It is not a question, and Faith gives no reply. Instead, her dark eyes rest on the woman half-naked before her, and a smile begins to curve her lips.

ETA: I just love the following direction in the shooting script for this episode: "(NOTE TO DIRECTOR AND ACTORS: Mind the lesbian subtext -- keep it very "sub".)"

I knew that, really, give me a little credit?! I was just messing around with words. And isn't my interpretation more amusing?

It's very difficult when I can't see your expression, you know. :P

I'm not artistic enough (nor quite that desperate for displacement - yet) to make a range of little cartoons of me with varying expressions. I did put the winking smiley at the top of my post, I'd assumed that would be a clue.
