Going to a Halloween party. I'm dressing up as a creepy marionette doll tonight and, trust me, there will be photos. So I leave you relatively cracky fic for The Homo Network, but I promise that it isn't just me because my prompt was gay chicken.

mark/eduardo, PG

As far as I'm concerned the chicken is the star of the fucking film, so this is amazing and I love it.

seriously, this is fantastic. for one, I love that it's not full of pain, because these two belong together. for two, I love this:

“It’s getting off on this.” Mark leans his forehead forward against Eduardo’s, touches their noses together, then pulls back to study the cage, legs splayed on either side of Eduardo’s hips. “Your chicken is kind of gay.”

“My chicken is not gay, Mark. Chickens can’t be gay.”

“Homosexuality has actually been documented in a number of nonhuman species, including various birds - most famously penguins, of course, but my point is that there is a very real possibility that your chicken has homosexual tendencies.”I love it for a number of reasons. First because it totally nails Mark's voice. Second because it's an open acknowledgement of what they're doing without freakouts - like, yeah, we're hooking up, we can talk about it, it's not a secret of horror. Third because even though it's an acknowledgement

Thank you so much! Awesome comment is awesome. Ugh LOL I'm glad that you took away the sweet bits and not just the utter crack. And I'm happy that Mark sounded like Mark! Yeah, I don't know - I feel like a lot of people mess around in college and it's not a huge deal and they're best friends.

Ugh I just want an excuse for blowjobs really.

Friend away! :D

Yeah absolutely. Hookups are a thing.

Ugh I just want an excuse for blowjobs really.

WE ALL WANT EXCUSES FOR BLOWJOBS

ugh seriously i love this so much i am going to gush more, i love this mark - he's confident and funny and not a total dickhead, like he's actually loveable and there's something to love there.

[romancandles]

I am a total Mark sympathizer! There are so many shots of the movie where Mark and Eduardo share a moment and Mark becomes warm and friendly - the little is-this-real-life smiles the exchange after the bathroom scene or after Eduardo signs the papers and Mark just has this little adorable smile and even during the chicken scene (my favorite scene, obviously) when Mark's reading the Crimson article, he seems so much like he's trying not to laugh, ribbing Eduardo about the ridiculous article and ridiculous claims of animal cruelty.

I guess - I know that the last scene between Mark and Eduardo, when Eduardo is yelling about the chicken and being a co-founder, is supposed to be how we read Mark but I feel as though he's a lot more complex than that.

This was amazing. <3
I loved that last paragraph, I don't even know why.

You did an awesome job with this, congrats! :D

[romancandles]

Thank you! I am so happy you liked it!
