Title: Blank Rating: PG Word Count: 140 Pairing: Gary/Raoul – Team Moustache Curtains Round/Fight: 2/C Summary: One still in love while the other one’s leaving. Raoul is called out with the Own in the middle of the night. Breakeven part 19, set post-Lioness Rampant.
The pounding of footfalls in the halls of the Palace is not altogether uncommon, but hearing those same rapid steps in the black of night can mean only one thing, and the trumpet call from the barracks, carried through his window, tells Gary that the Own is being called out again. He gets up to shut the window in a huff before sitting back down to try and get through one more stack of reports before he sleeps.
Raoul tumbles from his bed and hits the ground running, and his familiar pattern (grab clothes, grab bags, out the door) stutters only once, when he finds himself reaching for a piece of parchment and a quill to leave a note he doesn’t want to write.
The parchment remains behind, blank. Let Gary find out for himself that Raoul’s reports aren’t in.
