I tried to resist, but this drabble begged to be written, so here it is - angsty Jumper drabble for weeek 42 of
writing_game. I hope the second one is enough to make up for it, but seeing how short it is, I seriously doubt it. Anyway... Jumper! Griffin/David!
[100 words]
He wears Dave's shirt all the time now, even if it no longer smells like Dave.
When it's late at night and he's drunk enough, he hugs himself and pretends that his arms aren't his. For the briefest moment, he almost believes that David is back, that he was recalling everything wrong, that he had only forgotten the date.
He had never hated anything before as fiercely as he hates the mornings these days.
The shirt is ripped beyond repair in his next skirmish against the Paladins.
But as Griffin doesn't survive the blood loss, to whom does it matter?

There's a flash of amusement in Griffin's eyes when David starts walking towards him with badly feigned nonchalance.
The other Jumper is so predictable. As soon as Griffin starts talking gibberish, David gets bored.
And starts thinking about ways of shutting him up.
And never searches further than choice #1 - a kiss.
So predictable.
