So I really want to be writing a fic i'm in love with right now. I have some ideas which i force at
ale_writes and
meeks00 on a daily basis and i LOVE THEM for it. And I was totally excited about this time travel idea... and then I really want to do a Dark Tower type story with the boys...
I don't know.
I have this for time travel:
It wasn't that Brad was staring at him, he wasn't. It's just that he couldn't look away. He doesn't know what caught his attention. Brad was just sitting at a stoplight on his bike when this man walked by. There was something about the way he moved that made Brad follow him with his eyes. He didn't fit in with everybody else walking down the road this time of day, but at the same time he fit in better than any of them.
A horn blared behind Brad, impatient drivers wanting to get to their location as fast as possible. As Brad picked his feet up, hitting the gas, the man turned and looked at him. His attention was just caught by the honking, Brad thought. But his eyes went straight to Brad and even at this distance they look like a color green that doesn't exist in this world. Brad watched him as he turned a corner between shops, disappearing between them.

The first time it happened Nate blacked out for hours. The second time he was prepared but confused. But the third time Nate ran until he was drenched in sweat and staring out into a landscape that hadn't been seen for half a millennium.
That was then.
As Nate walked down the street he became hyper aware of the man on the motorcycle watching him. A shift of his shoulder and his gait changed, a move that Nate knew would make him practically disappear within a crowd. But the man never looked away, never blinked. A horn honked in an effort to move him forward. Nate turned to look, thinking he would see the motorcycle moving past him in the road, but he was still sitting there, his eyes piercing right through Nate's guise.
Nate turned a corner, sliding in between two buildings. He liked to go unnoticed in the world. He had seen enough of it, in enough times, to know that getting noticed wasn't always the smartest thing to do.
