new I-Man story

This is a late entry for [livejournal.com profile] slodwick's A Picture Is Worth a Thousand Words challenge. It was due on Feb. 28, but I spaced and didn't get it done on time.

The idea was that you'd be assigned a picture, and have to write a story of exactly 1,000 words based on it -- literally, metaphorically, whatever.

My assignment picture:



The story I came up with was Playing Hooky, a slash Invisible Man story. Many thanks to [livejournal.com profile] marycrawford for the beta!

I went with I-Man for a very specific reason -- that being [livejournal.com profile] therienne. In case you're interested, it's better to read the story before reading this explanation (no, really *g*), so I'm putting this under tons of space in a cut.


The story behind the story -- scroll down








keep going








a little more











almost there...









See, I showed [livejournal.com profile] therienne that picture a day or so after I was assigned it. I liked the picture a lot -- tons of potential there, and very pretty!

Therienne: "Oh, that's trouble."

Me: "Er -- what?"

T: "Oh, please. Those birds are headed STRAIGHT FOR YOUR CAR!"

And as soon as she said that, I knew that this was going to be an Invisible Man story, and exactly how those birds were showing up. Because, you see, Therienne is Bobby Hobbes. Or, as she once said, "I think Bobby Hobbes may be my spirit tv character."

Heee.

Thanks! I do love these two, and the fact that they just have so much *fun* together, playing around, despite all the angst and insanity.

and hee, yay! *G*
