Distraction [1/3]

[anonymous]

Saren glanced at his omni and noted the time. He had been waiting for one thing or another the entire day and by now the humming and creaking of the L4 station, mixed with the chatter and clamor of the traffic in the spaceport, were well beneath the threshold of his senses or interests. Even the smells, the dirty scents of machinery and the greasy scents of fast-food stalls, and the disturbing scents of aliens everywhere, could no longer distract him from utter boredom and burning impatience

Something touched his knee and he jerked, scaring the boy who’d come off the crate and closed in on him, catching him unawares

But just as he was about to bring up his omni and dial the number, the boy’s father emerged from corridor A3, carried on long, hurried strides and glancing behind his shoulder. Saren absently took note of his dark-gray medium armor and the Haliat Stilleto attached to his right thigh slot. A mercenary.

“Nihlus,” the father said, snapping his fingers to indicate urgency, and the boy ran off.

Saren opened his mouth to say something, but then forgot what it was, he forgot about the boy and the father and the people around and everything as Solas appeared on the top of the escalator, scanning the crowd for the familiar face. Saren leaped from the bench and waved an eager hand, then ran forward to meet him, stopping just short of slamming into him

Aw, that was cute. Loved it.

The interaction between Saren and his brother is touching...and Nihlus is a smart little thieving brat :)

Perfect. So glad you posted it.

Re: Distraction [3/3]

[anonymous]

Thank you. Glad you liked it. :)

But damn, I should have reposted the prompt in Part VI instead of replying here. The meme is moving too fast for me.

Re: Distraction [3/3]

[anonymous]

Hah!

Of course that's the way turian children play :) Those two are cute beyond words.

Re: Distraction [3/3]

[anonymous]

That was a wonderful mix of funny and sad.

But..forgive me if I'm dense...
what is it that Solas said that Saren refused to hear?

Re: Distraction [3/3]

[anonymous]

Anon is not authoranon, but anon thinks that Solas was telling Saren that he won't be able to make it in time for the surgery.

Great job, by the way. I love how the interaction is so brief yet so meaningful.

Re: Distraction [3/3]

OP here. I'm so glad you decided to put this up because it was so cute and very well written. Makes me want to see what would happen if Saren remembered this meeting later in life, haha. Loved the fill. Thanks so much!

Distraction [Epilogue]

[anonymous]

Dear OP and lovely anons, here's a little something in a way of thanks for the kind words. :)

Saren stepped around the young soldier who was now sweating under scrutiny. Which was just as well. It was only appropriate

Re: Distraction [Epilogue]

[anonymous]

Not the OP, but someone who previously commented on this...

Anon, for this epilogue I will love you forever.
I'm having a bad, bad day at work, it's my birthday that thankfully no one remembers and am feeling old and cranky and this managed to make me smile ear-to-ear.

Re: Distraction [Epilogue]

[anonymous]

Sad to hear your day is bad,
Glad to hear you're no longer sad. :)

Happy birthday, dear anon. May it be a good year, a year to remember.

PS
Don't know if it will be any comfort, but when I'm feeling old, I think about all those poor kids going to school and I go, mwuahahaha! I'll never have to study again! ;)

Re: Distraction [Epilogue]

I'm dying over here from an attack of teh cute.

Please don't tell me that Nihlus will pinch Saren's Spectre pistol at some point.
(Don't tell me. Write it. Please.)

Seriously, I love this. There is so little playful fun between these two that this is a rare treat.

I'd prompt you for something else, funny with these two if you'd allow it...
Would offer internet, cookies, my soul and maybe return fill for it...

Re: Distraction [Epilogue]

[anonymous]

Oooh, a challenge! :)

Please do go ahead with the prompt. I can't promise I'll fill, sometimes it takes ages for inspiration to strike, but I'll try. And a return fill sounds yummy! What/who do you like to write? Or maybe paint?

So glad you liked this. Thank you. <3

Re: Distraction [Epilogue]

[anonymous]

Thank _you_ for writing this. Seriously.

And I know about inspiration and how that works :) RL keeps me so busy that sometimes it takes me a month or two to finish a piece. Yes, I fail at life.

Um, I usually write turians, have been guilty of fshep/Garrus, fshep/saren mostly, have done others, too...
More importantly, what do you want to read? I promise I'll give it a try.

I'll put up a prompt. :)

Re: Distraction [Epilogue]

[anonymous]

FShep/Saren, you say? Ooooh, shiny! Not many fics with that pairing out there. Would you link to some of your stories? My prompt will probably go that way. :)

As for your prompt, I'm working on it. Just so you know. :)
