Numb3rs - Drabble - Impressed

Impressed

Ian followed Don’s black SUV in his pickup to the FBI building. The traffic was beginning to clog the roads as the average citizens made their way to work. The sniper parked beside Don, but it wasn’t until they were waiting for the elevator that Don started a conversation.

“Thanks,” Don said.

Ian turned to the agent. “For showing up?”

Nice! It's still weird to see drabbles outside of the drabble comm, but nice!

[icarus_iso]

Thanks!

Yea, about that... I really wouldn't mind using the numb3rs100 prompt list and posting there but most of the future drabbles are/will be over the comm's 300 word limit... any suggestions?

[emmademarais]

Well, past 300 words (which is a triple drabble as it is) they're no longer drabbles. We do have people post drabble series which consist of multiple drabbles which individually can't be more than 300, but the series can be. Each drabble still needs a separate prompt, but you can tell a longer story that way.

Here's an example of a four prompt series I did recently. It shows how you can use separate drabbles to tell a longer story and stay within the drabble format limitations.

Degrees of Freedom

If you'd prefer, just post only the fic that are 300 words or less on the comm. You'll probably get enough interest that people will follow the link back for more.

[icarus_iso]

You learn something new every day (or a few things in my case).

Well I'll post anything under 300 words in numb3rs100 from now on, when they come from the prompt list of course.

Loved the Degrees Of Freedom series btw.

“Just decent?”

LOL, I could so see Don's face in that moment. *g*

“Don’t take my shot again.”

Ahhhh, that's such a good Ian moment... :D

Thank you so much for this! It's sooo great! *g*

[icarus_iso]

Maybe not sooo great, but I'm getting there.

Thanks! *g*

I do like this little series of yours.

[icarus_iso]

Glad to hear it.

There was no Charlie in this one so I wasn't sure about posting it in sniper_voodoo.

[ladygray99]

Just link all the parts together when you're done.

Yay another one! I love the interaction between Ian and Don in this and congratulation on the word count. :)

[icarus_iso]

Thanks!

I love the Larry icon by the way, so cute!

[ancientcitadel]

Yeah, it is. It was made by toomuchfandom. :)
