Drabble: Softly, Softly

[cupidandpsycho]

Title: Softly, Softly
Pairing: Lyle/Abby
Rating: 16 (I guess?)
Warning: I haz committed het!  Run away!
Disclaimer: Lyle belongs to fredbassett . I hope she doesn't mind me committing het with him.

Jon Lyle was incredibly happy in his relationship with James Lester but sometimes, when he needed to get off without having to fight for every inch, when he needed to feel like he was in complete control, he turned to Abby Maitland. She wasn't submissive by nature, and Lyle didn't expect her to be, but there was something to be said for the way she always welcomed him into her bed. Hands gentle when he didn't want to bruise, her words tender when that was what he needed to hear and her thighs soft as they wrapped round his waist.

That's a new pairing isn't it?

Very nice.

[cupidandpsycho.livejournal.com]

Only because I may have been the first one to post them. But I have read Lyle/Abby...

Thank you! Glad you liked.

[reggietate.livejournal.com]

Ooooh, lovely! That's an unusual pairing :-)

[cupidandpsycho.livejournal.com]

Thanks!

I'll gladly take the blame but I still think I'm going to be relying on myself for any other Lyle het. Which is a bit like masturbation... fun but nowhere as fulfilling as sex.

*blinks and then hides under the couch in embarrassment*

[rodlox.livejournal.com]

well, I just wrote Lyle/Helen, but I sent it to a beta, because I don't know Lyle well.

[lukadreaming.livejournal.com]

Hee, you haz committed het and it's a good one!

Does this mean I'm off the hook now? *vbg*

[cupidandpsycho.livejournal.com]

Thanks... and NO! You are not off the hook. Come on and post the damned thing. It's crack!fic at its finest!

[lukadreaming.livejournal.com]

Damn *g*. It's nearly done, honest. But I can't get the last bit right!

[cupidandpsycho.livejournal.com]

*cough*betaoverhere*cough*

[lukadreaming.livejournal.com]

On its way!

[cupidandpsycho.livejournal.com]

Yay!

[fififolle]

OoooOoooh! Brilliant :) I knew you could do it *g* I'm glad I saw this before I turn in.
Alpha Lyle satisfied, eh? Very good.

[cupidandpsycho.livejournal.com]

Thanks dear! And no, Alpha!Lyle isn't quite satisfied yet. Dammit! ;-)

[fififolle]

LOL!!

[ladydevon.livejournal.com]

Wow what a neat-o pairing. I know you have committed het I just hope you do it again soon!

[cupidandpsycho.livejournal.com]

Did I delete you by accident or did you do it yourself?

At any rate...

*blinks and then grins*

Thank you! I am glad you enjoyed it and even want more. I was afraid I'd be run off by angry villagers!

And is that Maid Marian in your icon? She's quite beautiful in that picture!

[ladydevon.livejournal.com]

Sorry, that was me not you. Don't let the villagers with their pitchforks and torches scare you off. I thougt the drabble was incredible and I for one would love to read more about this pairing. As for the icon, yes it's Maid Marian. She was so kick ass and independent in the series. I'm using here as an inspiration for my big bang story.

[rodlox.livejournal.com]

lovely.

and the sheer win-ness of how you wrote the Abby part of the equation, makes Lester's part understandable - one partner for one set of moods, the other for the other moods.

you did superbly!

[cupidandpsycho.livejournal.com]

Thank you!

one partner for one set of moods, the other for the other moods.

Yay! That was exactly what I was going for. I wanted Lyle het but I love Lyle/Lester so I couldn't break them up!

[rodlox.livejournal.com]

welcome.

and that's perfectly fine.

though it leads me to one question: do Lester and Abby ever talk about their roles, or do they boffle as well?

[cupidandpsycho.livejournal.com]

Hee... I don't expect much talking gets done except for when Abby's soothing the savage Lyle.

[rodlox.livejournal.com]

so...no Abby/Lester gen or het?

well, at least there's Abby/Lyle to distract us.

[cupidandpsycho.livejournal.com]

Abby sleeping with her lovers lover would be wrong. *g*

[rodlox.livejournal.com]

hey, so is Lyle's sleeping around. ;)

so I'm sure they've come to some sort of an arrangement. (they're all government employees - of course there was a meeting in there somewhere to discuss it) ;)


Disclaimer: none of that means that i liked your ficlet any less.

[cupidandpsycho.livejournal.com]

they're all government employees - of course there was a meeting in there somewhere to discuss it

Oh great. Now you've given me a bunny. *shakes tiny fist at you*

[adafrog.livejournal.com]

Lovely.

[cupidandpsycho.livejournal.com]

Thank you! :o)

[verito295.livejournal.com]

You know...
You committed het with Lyle.. the fact that it's very nice and makes me want to snuggle them doesn't stop that fact :)

[cupidandpsycho.livejournal.com]

I know, I know. I should be ashamed of myself... but I'm not. *veg*

The fact that you're not coming at me wielding a shoe is nearly like an official stamp of approval! I just hope it gets by fredbassett. *bites fingernails*

[verito295.livejournal.com]

The fact that you're not coming at me wielding a shoe is nearly like an official stamp of approval!
LMAO and now you make me feel like the biggest Lyle fangirl. *hides* :D

[cupidandpsycho.livejournal.com]

No need to hide! Being a Lyle fangirl is nothing to be ashamed of! Of course I might be saying that because I are one. *bg*

[deinonychus-1.livejournal.com]

now that's an unusual pairing. And yey for Abby het! Liked the contrast between Lyle's two lovers and getting different things from them both.

[cupidandpsycho.livejournal.com]

Yay, thank you!

As I was saying before, if I was going to put Lyle into a het fic, I still wasn't breaking him and Lester up. So his reasons for sleeping with Abby had to be brought to the forefront.

But hmmm... how is Lester going to handle it? *notices the bunny sneaking up on her*

Nooo!

[fredbassett]

Blimey, that IS unusual! LOL, but worry not, the Hound likes it, and I shall make you a shiny new tag to prove it.

I like the way you dealt with the contrast here.

[cupidandpsycho.livejournal.com]

*bounces happily*

Yay, the Hound likes it! I think that means I can write more. *eg*

Thank you! *pets you*

[telperion-15.livejournal.com]

Yep, it's het alright... *g*

But it's great as well! Actually, I can see Abby and Lyle making quite a good pairing, for precisely the reasons you give in this drabble! They would complement each other well, I think!

[cupidandpsycho.livejournal.com]

*mind still boggling that she wrote het*

The scary part is, I think I've found a new OTP, because they do work so well together. *headdesk*

Glad you liked, m'dear. *bg*

[mysteriousaliwz.livejournal.com]

They do go rather well together, don't they?

(And fear not, het isn't a hanging offence in these parts, so you're safe enough *g*)

[cupidandpsycho.livejournal.com]

Yes, they do! But so do Lyle & Lester. *whimpers*

[bigtitch.livejournal.com]

Oooh that's nice. I like these two together.

[cupidandpsycho.livejournal.com]

Me, too. Even after I fix Lester/Lyle, there may be more Lyle/Abby in the offing. *veg*

[sunsetdawn20.livejournal.com]

Oh dear. I sense problems coming. *is worried*

[cupidandpsycho.livejournal.com]

*points to icon*

Heee... you've found my master list, yeah? *giggles*

I'm glad you did because I'd have forgotten to link Mussed to it, if you hadn't!

[sunsetdawn20.livejournal.com]

Well, I obviously had to check out your stuff after that. lol :) Especially when I saw you friended me, that's always such an honour, and a great opportunity to see what the other person wrote in the past.
