Eduardo/Mark, AU, college tech help!Mark anonymous April 11 2011, 12:40:28 UTC
Mark and Dustin work as university tech help guys, fielding calls from other students and professors about their computer problems (many of which can be solved by asking "Is it plugged in/charged?" or "Have you tried turning it off and restarting it?"). Eduardo is an unlucky student whose computer keeps screwing up, and through serendipity, his calls keep being picked up by Mark (and maybe eventually after a while Eduardo has started timing his calls for when he thinks Mark's work hours are) and they start a friendly flirtation and develop a mutual crush.

Just give something warm and fluffy and sweet.

Well, at least Mark's getting paid to do the things he enjoys? :D (Dealing with incompetent people aside.)

As the next couple of shifts drag on by, Mark momentarily forgets all about Eduardo.

Which is probably why he doesn’t process Dustin’s animated voice and what can only be described as giggling, at some Wardo person, whoever that is.

Mark tries to drown out Dustin’s overall giddiness with lines of code, but it’s a little difficult when Dustin’s prattling on excitedly with his arms flailing just about everywhere, almost close enough to encroach on Mark’s personal desk space.

In retaliation (and mostly because Dustin didn’t seem to notice the way Mark was narrowing his eyes at him for a good two minutes), Mark pelts Dustin in the side of the head with an empty soda can. It makes a dull, but nonetheless satisfying, noise upon contact. Predictably, Dustin squawks overdramatically and spins in his chair to tell Mark to stop being such a jerkface, before explaining over the phone that, it’s nothing really, just Mark being Mark.Mark ( ... )

Eduardo calls a few more times over the next couple of weeks with actual technical difficulties. (Weirdly enough, these all happen during Mark’s various shifts.)

First, because there’s something wrong with his printer. That gets easily resolved when Mark realizes that Eduardo pretty much only needs to put the installation CD in his new computer to get it working properly again.

And then again, because his econ project partner somehow managed to jam a pen of all things into his disk drive and now, not only does it mean Eduardo can’t watch his DVDs in peace, but it also makes funny noises, which he seems more than happy to recreate for Mark’s informational purposes. (Mark really can’t help the short burst of laughter he lets out at Eduardo’s less than technically accurate impression of his laptop’s whirring sounds.)

There’s not much Mark can do about that particular issue over the phone, but they still manage to spend a good half-hour on the line anyway before Chris comes over and reminds Mark about the no personal calls rule. ( ( ... )
