Title: Time Rating: PG Word Count: 159 Pairing: Gary/Raoul – Team Moustache Curtains Round/Fight: 2/C Summary: Cause I got time while she got freedom. Gary and Raoul are stuck in the capital with Jon trying to sort out all this mess. Breakeven part 3, set post- Lioness Rampant.
Gary shifted another pile of paperwork from the floor to his desk.
“Right then; Jon asked if we could get these through by this evening, since things aren’t looking good and we’re going to need to import grain, at least, for the next year or so…”
Raoul, seeing another interminable pile of paperwork, groaned. “Nothing like another mountain of complaining nobility to suck the life out of you,” he complained, and Gary was about to retort when he looked up and realized that Raoul looked about how he felt.
“What, no comment?” Raoul raised his eyebrows.
Swiping a hand across his brow, Gary sighed as he eyed the dotted line where his name—his name, not his father’s—validated the document in front of him.
“When did we become adults?”
Raoul didn’t answer, his fingers twitching tighter around his quill, and Gary sighed again.
Suddenly, the week between now and when Cythera would return to the capital seemed endless.
