slowly making my way through the series, which means he's completely and totally homeless. suggestio

What makes you think this time's going to be different from the first time we tried this?

[Okay, so this is the asshole everyone keeps mistaking him for. Good to know.]

They never learn. It's insanity, I'm pretty sure.

[heartcondition]

[ Just... give him a moment to process this. Facetwins aren't exactly easy to digest. ]

Definitely seems like it fits the bill with this one.

The Grey's Anatomy cast at Amat calls him fake Denny :|

[failedparenting]

[Tell him about it. He still has to fight the urge to go for a silver knife.

Shapeshifters, man.]

Just wait until they decide you're too happy and fuck with everything you love. That's great.

lmao that's hilarious. poor john.

[heartcondition]

I wish I could trust that mine would cut me some slack as far as that's concerned, but I doubt I could even pretend to believe it.

Rusty muse is rusty... but... /wibbles

[modelsurgeon]

They're kind of optimistic like that.

:c saddest ever.

[heartcondition]

Guess they took a page out of your book, then, Izzie Stevens.

[modelsurgeon]

Not such a bad thing to be, though, is it?

[heartcondition]

[ He smiles and shakes his head. ] I could definitely think of worse things to be.

[modelsurgeon]

Exactly. [She smiles.] If it weren't for the optimism, this wouldn't be happening right now.

[heartcondition]

It's because of the optimism that she's considering shipping me off somewhere, though, and I'm not too sure I like that possibility. [ Especially if there's no Izzie. :c ]

[modelsurgeon]

Oh... [A pause. She's not sure she likes that either.] Would she send you somewhere.. ah... healthy?

[heartcondition]

That's the plan. [ Healthy, dead; it's all the same thing once you're tossed into some alternate dimension, right?

He reaches up to brush his fingers across her cheek, if she'll let him. ] What about you? Is yours planning on sendin' you anywhere?

[modelsurgeon]

[.... She'd be upset if she heard you talking like that, Denny. She doesn't shy away from his touch... Just barely. If anything, it kind of makes her freeze up a little. This is Izzie trying not to cry.]

She's not as ambitious, no. You can never tell with her. She goes through phases.

[heartcondition]

[ And that's exactly why he's keeping it to himself. The less he upsets her at this point, the better.

He keeps the touch brief and drops his hands after a second or two, even if it kills him to do so. He doesn't want to make her uncomfortable at all. ] Yeah, I get that. Mine's the same way; talks about finding me and a few others a home but rarely follows through.

[modelsurgeon]

[As soon as he moves his hand, though, she wants it back. At the very least, it assures her he's there. Without hesitation, her hands find his, squeezing them slightly.]

So they're optimistic... but fickle. I can't help but agree with them, though... It.... can be different this time around...

[heartcondition]

[ He smiles, almost bashfully, when he feels her hands and he squeezes them in return. ]

If she ever actually finds somewhere to send me. [ He closes the distance between them a bit more, thumbs running over hers. ] I think I'd rather stay here with you, though.

I need more happy icons for her, geeze. XD

[modelsurgeon]

Even around here it can be different.

[She's getting a little more comfortable with the fact that yes, she's actually talking with him. She doesn't mind the distance being closed more.... or the way his thumbs run over hers.]

You know, I think I'm okay with that.

i just need more icons for him in general.

[heartcondition]

Yeah? [ His smile widens as he leans in, pressing a kiss to her forehead. Then he just sort of lets his lips linger there, even as he adds on, ] You have no idea how glad I am to hear that.

<3

[modelsurgeon]

Yeah...

[She's hesitant to let go of his hands, but now that he's so close, she just wants to hold onto him. She wraps her arms around him and just holds herself close.]

I don't know how you'd think I'd say anything else... Ever.

sorry this is so late ;; i am seriously the worst with d_m threads

[heartcondition]

[ Denny's arms wrap around her as soon as he feels hers around him. One hand presses against her back while the other moves to cup the back of her head and he just can't resist the urge to bury his face in her hair. ]

A guy can never be too sure.

<3 it's okay, I was juggling two jobs and then got a case of vertigo, so it's not biggie <3

[modelsurgeon]

[Izzie can't help but smile a little as she buries her own face in his shoulder.]

Yeah? Well don't sell yourself so short next time... Where most try to escape their writers, I'm more than okay with ours keeping us around.

D: i hope the vertigo's gone!

[heartcondition]

Yeah, me too. [ He's pretty sure the only reason she's never sent him anywhere is because Izzie's never in the places she looks, so he's got faith in that, at least. ]
