An Andrew drabble

[alwaysjbj]

For those on my flist not already sick to death of all my drabbles...

selene2 asked me for an Andrew pov drabble...

Craving

Was he invisible? He often wondered that. People seemed to flit about him, never really noticing him. Like the way no-one remembered his name. Maybe that’s why he talked so much, not that it was a conscious thing, he’d just suddenly find himself rambling and unable to stop. He’d only ever wanted to belong. But that never worked, he’d never really fit anywhere. Not at school, or with Warren, and certainly not here where everyone was a hero, or really cool. Like Spike. Spike was everything he wanted to be; only he knew he never would. He’d always just be… invisible.

Not a hope in hell LOL... I have enough to do with the Gethan ones! Not to mention the sorely neglected wip's and fall_for_spike I MUST get that written! *cries* I need more hours in a day!!! Many, many more!

That is so sweet! I loved Andrew's character, and you've summed up the fact that he didn't really fit in very well with anyone. Always a follower, never a leader. Lovely.

Thanks! I am glad it worked... Andrew is someone I don't think I have written before.. so it was a bit of a daunting task.

You have written so much in the past couple days and I have no time to read it!! (I'm not "sick" of it, by any means, just very, very behind ;) I'm also thinking you'll have no trouble with your 100 challenge considering how quickly you're trucking through them! I'll hopefully read those within the next couple of days.)

Anyway, this drabble was great. You really got Andrew's insecurities here. Nice work!

Thank you very much! And yeah.. I sooo get 'very behind' I am sooo very behind in my reading. *sigh* I keep saying I will catch up... but I think I would need to forgo sleep for a few weeks in order to do so.

Another goodie! Good description of Andrew - and explanation of his need to babble

Thanks Patti... his babbling always looked to me like it was his way of trying to fit in.
