Title: Man down
Fandom: Homestar Runner
Rating: G
Summary: Utter crack. Sorry.
Word count: About 100
Every year on the day that Strongbadia wasn't theirs, Homestar buys Mrs. Benedetto a drink. She never takes it--teetotaler, or possibly she just doesn't miss her husband that much, the witch--but she does sit quietly while Homestar reminisces on his fallen comrade and makes his toast.
"To Benedetto." Homestar says, raising his glass with an invisible arm. "The finest soldier I ever met!"
The widow sits, unmoved.
A few drinks later, he cries against Mrs. Benedetto's door panel. "It's not fair...the good die so young..."
