Fic post from my archive.

This story takes place in a quantum bubble of the Challengeverse (maybe it happened, maybe it didn't), immediately following "The Continuation of War". Tezuka offers Oishi some support after his very bad day. Porn with Characterization, I-3

It had not been a relaxing day for Oishi Shuichirou.

*snickering* Ah, thank you for inspiring a real title for this one, dear.

You've probably been in the fanbase long enough to have learned the term before the meaning really started to slip. It never fails to astonish me how fast it can happen, I mean, a matter of a year or two in online-based communities.

This does not stop me from railing against fate when it's an annoying shift. For instance, all the signs here in Ohio that say "Stop here to actuate signal." Yes, help that traffic light be all it can be! *facepalm*

Oh, jeesh... I've only been in the fanbase for... for... {blinks} well, damn... five? six years? shit... That's not *that* long, really...

{pouting} glad I could help inspire... even if it's *still* an Oishi & Tezuka fic....

Hey! I thought there was supposed to be Fuji & Tezu action!!!!

Okay... gotta ask... "Stop here to actuate signal"??? Huh???

[branchandroot]

Well, they mean "activate signal", but someone in the State Department of Signs messed up, lo these many years ago, and all the signs at traffic lights that tell you where the weight-plates are say "actuate" instead. *shakes head*

yes. in case you were wondering, I *did* notice how you avoiding the other comments....

[branchandroot]

*sighs* Darn. The thing is I never intended this to go TezuFujiwards. *pauses* Of course, I never actually intended it to go TezuOishiwards, either...

{sniffles} {pouts} well, okay.... as long as the characters are surprising *you*, too... {grins}

{wonders what *other* surprises are in store...}
