There’s a supreme difference in my partner when we’re on the job and when we’re off.

When we’re on an affair, he is a consummate performer; no one has seen through his facade – not our boss, our co-workers nor our enemies – and I sincerely doubt anyone ever will.

When we’re home, it takes time but eventually he allows the masks to slip away and I am given the honor of seeing the man for who he really is. A somber, giving, thoughtful soul who offers up himself in the firm belief that he can make the world a better place.

try flashslash it really makes you think
Dang! I'm gonna read through the FAQ and then maybe peek at the prompts. I really enjoyed your piece!

ETA: Or not. As the FAQ clearly outlines.

Do not pick number three. It was put there to make us old before our time. In fact, since you read mine, you've kinda boxed yourself into number 2.

It drives me crazy because I can't edit.

Now I just need to catch up on the NCIS and slashdrabbles.

I've been debating about doing NCIS drabbles...maybe. I found a couple of communities with interesting ideas - 30_lemons or 7snogs that maybe I'll just drabble using their prompts without joining their communities.

Right now I'm trying to come up with something for the current slashthedrabble prompt...

I think I'm falling behind again. I'm doing the newsletter, so I'll find out.
