hi bennett! for the wip game how about skin, grip, water, smile - take your pick 🥰
okay so all four of those are in my summer of infideleddie fic that i reopened for the first time in two years this morning … also i know the rule for the game is the sentence it’s in but i like context so there’s three sentences for each :)
skin (this is the only one in the eddie pov section):
He stares at the ceiling and feels the fire burning under his skin. It radiates out from his chest, where the heat had existed as an isolated burn for some time now. But today, when Buck came over, it reached a fever-pitch; the flashover of the century as Buck’s hands drew the flames out from their hiding place.
grip:
Eddie uses his thumb to ease Buck’s jaw open, and Buck docilely sticks his tongue out just barely past his bottom teeth. Eddie adjusts his grip, slipping the thumb out in favor of full-hand grasping Buck’s chin. Buck’s spit smears at the corner of his mouth, Eddie’s eyes falling to it.
water: (four sentences but the first doesn’t count it’s one word so)
Wonderful. Buck takes another swig of his water. He’ll need a refill soon. He wishes it was the nice wine.
smile:
“Chris is across the hall,” Buck echoes. Eddie smiles, and if Buck weren’t already so sure, hadn’t already had his big realization; the way that Eddie grins down at him with that new surprise mustache of his that feels like a gift from God himself and his hair a tousled mess from Buck’s hands running through it? That would be everything he needed to know he was madly, desperately in love.
send me a word and i’ll post a (couple) sentence(s) from a wip it appears in!
