the story they'll never get to tell (dan/blair) really brief and random, written while listening to david berkeley. perhaps it'll make corleones smile wistfully. Takes place during NYU.

730 words, g

you're perfect but not because you try )

gossip girl, fanfic: dan/blair

I think I'm squeeing. I think that last line has made me squee. Thanks ever so fucking much for that. Bunches. :)

I needed it today.

Plus - this - "Contemplating a place where their melancholia has better context. " is like my favorite sentence ever.

Along with this one - She misses a discarded headband at the foot of a stairwell and wonders momentarily, briefly, if it misses her too.

Ah, I've been craving a Dair fix recently, and this is perfect. Thanks for sharing!

You really capture their characters well, I can hear them saying those exact lines of dialogue to each other. I need to see the "I want to dress you" on the actual show! Hilarious! Also, I love your tone of voice and style with the "it's important to note" business. It suits their style.

I think Dan & Blair *would* make lovely drinking buddies.

I think that was sad and rather wistful. A nice little piece. I liked the first person narrator as it's something you rarely see in fanfiction and when you do, it is rarely done well, however in this case, it's quite entrancing.

Instead of sobering them, they thread their fingers through the chain linked fence and look into the gutted World Trade Center site as Blair screams “I used to own this city”, Dan nods in agreement, “I was there, I’ve seen it!"

- is my absolute favorite. Just....I can't even tell you how much I adore this.
