It's Drabble Time

[revid]

Title: Summer Shudder
Author: revid
Pairing: Billie Joe Armstrong/Davey Havok (AFI)
Word Count: 100
Rating: PG-13
Disclaimer: This is a work of fiction. No money is being made, and nothing is implied about any real person.

A/N: I've had AFI on the brain since I saw them two weeks ago, so this seemed like a good excuse to get it out. This takes place the second week of June 2006, right after Decemberunderground debuted at Number One on the Billboard 200 Chart.

For the fic challenge to celebrate the 1,039th member of comingclean, with the prompt of 'congratulations'.

~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~

Yanked along by his dog, Billie Joe struggled down the block, barely managing to avoid his neighbor's car pulling into the driveway.

"Dude," Billie yelled as Davey exited his car. "Number one! Number fucking one!" He bounded over to squish his pal in a bear hug. "I'd buy champagne, if you did that shit!"

Davey pulled back to read one pair of unlined eyes with another--What were those odds?--hands still on Billie's hips. Billie leaned forward and flicked his tongue gently against his friend's lip ring.

"You could congratulate me some other way," Davey murmured.

DAVEY! :D

Davey pulled back to read one pair of unlined eyes with another--What were those odds?

That line amused me greatly. Hehehe.

I was gonna use my GLEE icon, but really, how many posts are there where the pretty one with the lip ring is actually topical?? :D

Nonetheless, *glee*! I love how natural it all seems - just a day, just neighbours, just normal driving/dog-walking/cosmetics-free activities except it's special for a reason that one's experienced a couple of times now and the other is doing so for the very first time. Mmm, implications. :D

Cute drabble! ... though every piece of greenday fic I've read (granted, it's probably not many) has some incarnation of the word "fuck" in it. ... Just an observation. ;)

Oh I love you dearly for pairing these two and including the dog. Yay for neighbourly love and lickable lip rings. For 100 words, this is just too cute.

*SQUEAK* Oh, that was ADORABLE, doll! BILLIE/DAVEY. Oh yes. I could get into that. :) I need to learn more about the Glitter Princess, so I could try writing this pairing! :)

AHHH AH AH AH SO FUCKING CUTE I COULD DIE, WOMAN. *flails MADLY* *MAULS YOU WITH LOVE AND DEVOTION*

[revid.livejournal.com]

That was my favorite line. Just the thought cracked me up.

[revid.livejournal.com]

Thanks Tas. Part of the challenge of writing a good drabble is to make the characters identifiable, so you couldn't just insert two random names.

I'm not a big fan of the lip rings...I wince when I think of the things that could go wrong.

[revid.livejournal.com]

That's because Billie Joe, the front man for Green Day *ahem*, is incapable of speaking any sentence longer that four words without one of them being "fuck."
We just accept and embrace it. :-)

*than 4 words*

*curses LJ for lack of edit capabilities*

[revid.livejournal.com]

Thank you. I like this pair too. :-)

[revid.livejournal.com]

I'm enthralled by him...I need to learn more about him too! :-) Thanks!

[revid.livejournal.com]

Yep, I could picture Rocky the dog dragging poor Billie along.

Everyone loves Davey! :-)

[revid.livejournal.com]

Thanks Darling!

I give you shirtless Davey in gratitude.

[revid.livejournal.com]

Thank you!

Does anyone write Billie/Davey? If you can direct me to some, I'd be eternally grateful!

[lady-salsa.livejournal.com]

You are the awesomest ever!

lore_lowell has a marvellous Billie/Davey/Fink called Initiation. The last part is Here (http://community.livejournal.com/dragoness_spit/15511.html)

What an excellent drabble! I also find Davey strangely fascinating - even more fascinating is the fact that Billie seems to have such a wide and diverse group of friends. I've just started getting into AFI's music, but what I've heard so far I like.

I've also seen you around many journals and in reading your info we seem to have a bit in common - would you mind if I friend you? Plus I've read about your meeting with The Dirnt in Angie's journal and I have to say it sounded awesome - congrats to you!

Aww! So cute! I *loved* the way Billie bounced over to Davey and was squeeing all over him.

STOP! Drabbletime.

[looking-spiffy.livejournal.com]

I didn't have a Glitter Princess icon, so here's a glittery Billie one. :D Oh, that was cute, bouncy!glomping!Billie and the promise of what's to come, hee. Yay!

What were those odds? *sporfle*

[tasyfa.livejournal.com]

Oh good, you saved me the trouble. :D ^Those, Mary. And the lore_lowell one that's mentioned above. All good stuff.

[tasyfa.livejournal.com]

I'm more or less neutral. They work well for some people, and I do like the little tug in the icon, but not on my mouth, man. lol. 'Course, that's also b/c my body doesn't much appreciate any kind of piercing; I've got just the two original holes left in my ears. The other ones I had to let grow over (as much as they actually do, anyway). They were just a continual problem.

[revid.livejournal.com]

Thank you kindly! :-)

[revid.livejournal.com]

Ah! Most excellent! Thank you very much. I'm surprised that pair isn't more popular.

[revid.livejournal.com]

I'm glad you liked it. I wasn't sure what kind of reception Billie/Davey would get. :-)

[revid.livejournal.com]

Of course I don't mind! And seeing the fully 100% of your flist is on mine, I'd say it's inevitable. :-D Feel free to hunt back to October and read my account as well. It was an amazing experience.

[revid.livejournal.com]

Have you ever listened to the commentary on the DVD of the movie "Live Freaky, Die Freaky?" Billie totally squees all over Davey. I am surprised this pairing hasn't gotten more attention. :-D

Re: STOP! Drabbletime.

[revid.livejournal.com]

Thanks! I wasn't sure how well it'd be received.

Seriously, Billie and Davey both caught together without makeup? The Universe might implode.

Great idea, BTW...the whole idea of the challenge, and the topic too!

[and-ed.livejournal.com]

Okay, I know nothing of Davey - guess I'm gonna have to learn, huh? But Billie is adorable here...I can so see him bounding over like that, all excited. And walking the dog? Too cute. Well done...and judging from the comments you got, lots of people are liking the Billie/Davey. =)

[revid.livejournal.com]

I don't know a whole lot about Davey either. I tried to work in what little I do know to make it believable. (The lip ring, the not drinking, the fact that he and Billie live in the same neighborhood.) But I can picture Davey/Billie pretty easily. Davey is intentionally ambiguous about his sexuality--he won't say one way or the other. And they are friends. That helps. :-)
