gaudy_night, prompt: "023. Lovers." Featuring...pretty much everything except Jon/"Stephen".
Clips referenced: Kristen; Larry and Aasif; Tad; appletinis; BriWi.
Around February, Wyatt stocks up on boxes of candy hearts. For the rest of the year John finds rows of them lined up on his desk, snippets of romantic verbiage strung together for an effect that is almost like haiku. Increasingly stale haiku.
Also, the first letter of each phrase spells out a dirty word. John's perversely pleased when Wyatt runs out of American curses and starts sliding into British.
***
Kristen finds a fantastic family-owned hole-in-the-wall pie place, and refuses to tell Olivia where it is. That way she can have a gift-wrapped slice of a different house specialty waiting on Olivia's desk every week she's in town.
One day, she shows up at her own office to find that not only has Olivia saved all the ribbon, it's been strung together and tied in a neat bow on top of a bale of hay.
"What?" says Olivia, shrugging. "I have it on good authority that you're a horse."
***
Jason throws things at Sam.
Sam throws them back, just as hard.
When Al asks if someone shouldn't try to get between them, one of the writers suggests, with a prizewinning straight face, that he try it. If he hasn't learned to recognize Bee-Jones foreplay yet, he's about to get a memorable lesson.
***
Aasif clucks under his breath when Larry's the only one close enough to hear, and tucks his arms into awkward flapping wings when nobody else is looking.
When Larry finally grabs him, slams him against the wall, and starts kissing him with an inch of his life, most of the observers think it came out of nowhere (although they agree that it's been a long time coming).
***
In a babbled jumble of words, one of which for some reason is "appletini," Tad explains that he was only inspecting Bobby's plumbing.
There's a tense moment when it looks to Bobby like Stephen isn't going to swallow it. Tad's less worried. He's pretty sure Stephen will swallow anything.
***
Josh offers to split his hoagie.
For the Giant Head of Brian Williams, it's love at first sight.
