Back to copy-pasting :). And it's too long for one comment...
"Tosser," Orlando grinned, and shoved playfully at Sean's chest. Sean danced out of the way, and put up his hands in a classic boxer's stance.
"Sure you want to tangle with me?"
Oooh, what a Kodak moment! I want it framed, almost naked Sean calling Orlando out. Ngh.
"And keep an eye on Viggo, I think he's cheating again."
How the hell can ANYONE cheat at beach football?! No, don’t explain, I probably really don’t wanna know…
All of this inner whatever the hell it was, calling ex-girlfriends in the middle of the night, quoting poetry – poetry, like some sort of goth or something, avoiding his friends like the plague...no, that most definitely wasn't him. He was young and carefree and with an incredible group of people; he should be having the time of his life and learning everything he possibly could soak in.
I’m quite in love with this – how you balance it out so perfectly that we’re not really sure whether Orlando really believes that, whether it is really true or not. Because both, his sunny as well as his broody side are so believable and captured quite nicely in this bit of introspection.
"Shove over, ladies, man with meat coming through," Lawrence said, balancing a tray in his hands as Orlando and Billy parted to allow him access to the nearby grill.
"That sounds like a porn film," Billy said, and Lawrence just grinned.
Billeh! My man, my soul mate, man that speaks what I am constantly thinking! I swear one of these days I’ll make a grand fool out of myself interpreting some really innocent bbq’ing as the biggest porn set up ever, and up embarrassing myself in front of relatives and it’s gonna be all your fault. Man with meat *giggles*
Also, I LOVE the way Sean and Orlando quote Shakespeare back at each other and how Sean gets just this liiittle bit of thoughtful and Orlando is all defending his honour, so innocently at that. I adore it.
"Thanks," he replied, softly, then kicked at Dom's foot. "You coming out with us or what?"
Just something really random: But I love the foot kicking thing :).
"Please, you'd have them wrestling naked in Jell-O," Orlando said. Viggo just grinned and didn't bother to deny it.
Yeah, Orli, but whose idea was this just now? To quote Jeff from “Coupling”: It’s PORN JELLY!!!!
Billy chimed in. "You know, he actually thinks it's normal to pour perfectly good tea over ice?"
"Get out." Orlando was strangely horrified and fascinated.
This is hands down my favourite bit everever (well, fav that doesn’t involve snogging at least :)). I can so hear Orlando’s horror and it’s the most hilarious thing ever that Billy chose that example of all things. – Do you think my husband Dave would mind if I add Billy to my harem? Dave can beat him at poker all day and Billy can be Scottish about it…
Like Orlando'd done something out of character, and Sean was trying to figure it out.
I love Orlando’s way with words. It’s so great to see him trying to suss out Sean here, and again doing it by trying to find matching descriptions and nailing it – even if he doesn’t even realize it. Love it.
