Sentence #04

Here's today's Quatre and Duo sentence.

4. Pain

It wasn't that Quatre liked to spend his lunch hour shuffling through papers, double checking the accounting and having random meetings with people who lacked the power of decision, but that didn't mean that Duo could simply waltz into his office, take him by the arm – with no concern for Quatre's neatly piled papers or the documents in his hand – and drag him out; Quatre would always grumble the whole way to the restaurant about what a pain Duo was, but they both knew that the complains were simply Quatre's unique and quite contradictory way to thank Duo for giving him an excuse to take a break.

In RL news, I just printed my thesis. I have to hand it in in a few hours and then make the oral presentation for the juries next week. I feel kind of weird…

I especially like this: people who lacked the power of decision XD

The underlying, subtle and slightly self-mocking humour here is so very Quatre to me. And again, you're painting a wonderful picture of a friendship through these vignettes.

Also, congrats on the printing O' the thesis. Good luck with the jury. *hugs*

Thank you! I'm glad that you liked the sentence.

I'll keep my fingers crossed for the jury, but at least I alerady turned it in.
