Le Dejeuner Sur L'Herbe, (1/?)

[anonymous]

Adachi sat dutifully next to Dojima's hospital bed as the older man slept, frowning at page 452 of a translated copy of The Stand. Although, dutifully may not have been the best word to describe it; despite his best efforts, he did care a little about what happened to Dojima. Not enough, but a little.

He certainly never wanted Nanako to be in the state she was in. Sweet little Nanako - young and trusting, too naive to royally fuck up a man's life. A little angel like that never deserved to be punished, but fucking Namatame had to see the game to the end. So Adachi had written the letter to Souji after seeing her on the Midnight Channel, knowing with conflicting feelings what was going to happen next. Sure, it was worth it to see Dojima run around like his hair was on fire - take that, fucker! - but when the car crashed, and when Nanako came out of the TV with all the strength and constitution of a drowning slug, and all those tubes and IV's and pinging machines

Le Dejeuner Sur L'Herbe, (2/4)

Dojima didn't remember falling asleep. He remembered talking to Adachi while he was laying in his hospital bed; or, rather, listening to him talk. Adachi could babble a mile a minute when he wanted to, and Dojima had let the words wash over them like a wave of white noise. He knew he should appreciate his partner more - after all, who spent his evenings at his bedside while Souji was out fucking around with whoever his Snatch-of-the-Month was all night? - but he was just so tired, so sapped from everything that had happened. So he had looked at his partner's naive, smiling face with half-lidded eyes, picking out bits and pieces of soothing, banal conversation

Le Dejeuner Sur L'Herbe, (3/4)

[anonymous]

-----------------------------------------------------------

Dojima was moaning in his sleep, tossing and turning. Adachi jerked his head up and wiped the sweat from his eyes. Once again, two thoughts inside his head were piping up with conflicting information. One told him to laugh, maybe even put the pillow over Dojima's face and see what would happen, because seeing Dojima-san suffer was just so much fun.For once, Adachi decided to listen to the other voice, the one that he feared had been nearly snuffed out after that Yamano woman had fallen into the television set. He listened to it for the first time in months, reaching out and grasping Dojima's hand in his. The feeling was alien, the palm huge and sweaty in his smaller hand, and he nearly recoiled from the naked intimacy of it. But when Dojima's breathing slowed and his body settled back into the hard hospital mattress, Adachi kept his hand there, his own pulse slowing

Le Dejeuner Sur L'Herbe, (4/4)

[anonymous]

They started out on the floodplain, but as dreams are wont to do, their location shifted inexplicably and they were back in Dojima's bedroom, tangled up on his small futon. They were both naked and pressed against each other, and although Dojima had never had sex with another man before, he knew exactly what to do to Adachi. Adachi moaned and bucked at all the right times, driving Dojima into a frenzy he had never known before. And when he was just about to fall over the edge and lose himself, his entire lower body tensed and ready to break like piano wire, Adachi looked right into his face, brown eyes wide open and frightened beneath his especially unruly mop of black hair. He said, pleadingly, "If it could just be like this then everything would have been fine." Before Dojima could say anything to that, his body betrayed him and he climaxed, making his entire lower body spasm. A moment later Adachi climaxed as well, covering Dojima's chest with what felt like a gallon of semen. He looked in Dojima's eyes and said something

Things I liked about this story:

-The references to The Stand - makes me wanna grab a copy and look at the page Adachi's reading. I haven't read it in years.

-How Dojima's dream changed.

-The use of the painting. I love how Dojima's dream state put Namatame and Adachi into it.

-The Izanami and Adachi relationship. And in general the Adachi characterization.

-Just the high quality of the writing in general. Great descriptions, great dialogue.

Excellent job, anon. I'm not the OP but I was really hoping this one would get filled.

Ha! Page 452 is actually nothing special. My boyfriend has been borrowing my copy of The Stand to read at work, and since I didn't have the book at the time, I had to make up a page number and hope I remembered what was on it. (I've read it fifteen times over my life - crazy fan much?) Alas, I was hoping it was some Harold Lauder, who I've always thought was an Adachi-like character in some ways, but I guessed wrong and it was about Larry and Nadine. Oh well.

Thank you for the very specific praise. I'm glad the painting reference wasn't a flop - the image just sort of came into my mind as something that walks the line between the erotic and the extremely strange and unnerving. When I read over the story again, it seemed kind of strange and out of place.

I'm really glad you liked it - this pairing isn't one of the more popular ones, but it seems to have a small (but extremely enthusiastic!) fanbase that I love being a part of. ^_^

Wow that was an essay.

Re: Writer!Anon

Ah, a fellow SKing fan. :) I prefer The Dark Tower series, but yeah, The Stand is one of his best. I remember thinking when I read it, this would make a great video game.

The painting worked well - not sure if it was what you were going for, but I took Adachi's nakedness in it to represent truth. (BTW If you have a specific interest in Le dejeuner sur l'herbe you might be interested in reading L'OEuvre by Emile Zola, for which it was an inspiration; haven't read this in years either but remember enjoying it.)

I try and read all the Adachi stuff on here when I have time - thanks for writing this!

Ah, yes, that's exactly what I was going for! Truth mixed in with brazen and bizarre sexuality.

I'll have to check that book out ^_^

And I also prefer the Dark Tower - in fact, I've been working on a Persona/Dark Tower crossover fic for a while. Don't know if you've read Interlude 19 on here (couple of weeks back) but that was part of it. No Adachi, as most of it is a flashback that takes place in the 90's, but it does deal with the issue of one Chisato Dojima.

Re: Writer!Anon

[anonymous]

No, I missed that one, but I will have to check it out :). I usually just stick to reading Adachi/anyone mixed in with the occasional Dojima/Souji.

Awesome! Here's a quickie link so you don't have to go digging, in case you want to read it:

Ok cool, I'll have a look when I get a chance.

Bless you and your Adachi/Dojima writing ways, Anon.

Ooh this was hot, and it had lots of great imagery with the dreams. Loved it!

Re: Le Dejeuner Sur L'Herbe, (4/4)

I love the little bits of reality that seep into the dream, and I admit it broke my heart a little when Adachi said that everything would've been all right. S-sob.
