Right, so when I first posted this, there was a taxi driver beeping at me five seconds after I hit the submit deviation. Apologies for the dumb AC.

OK, this also isn't as good as I would have hoped, I'm still really struggling with trying to... assimilate their characters in my not-as-semi-realistic-as-I-had-thought style. It's harder than it looks. :I If anyone has any pointers for me, and kissing anatomy, please, please share. I can find a fucking Titanic full of reference photos for perfectly romantic, passionate kisses, but I really want to learn to draw fucking awesome 'awkward' kisses. Fuckingawesome.

I ALSO THINK THE INTERNET SHOULD BE DISAPPOINTED WITH ITSELF, BECAUSE THE ONLY INKLINGS OF THIS HAS BEEN MERCILOUSLIA'S PROMPT-THING. WHICH I LOVED.

-- Two (2) Kisses
The first one is an accident. They’re both aware of that. It’s the surge of excitement and adrenaline that washes over the body in incomprehensible waves when – they, of all people, some ragtag pair of thieves just barely getting by – there are treasures tucked under their arms and rock pounding underneath their shoes and they’ve made it out of there. Their first heist: a complete success, if they ignored both of their inability to knock out the guards effectively the first, second, and third times.

And it’s brief. It’s a new emotion that neither of them know how to deal with, and it takes awkward shape as a kiss that’s too quick, that misses both of their mouths and Nate ends up pursing his lips against the corner of the other’s mouth; and Harry, after trying to rectify it, ends up missing and nearly kissing his nose.

They’re both embarrassed, and after clearing his throat, Nate returns to being giddy over their newly-acquired “fortune,” disregarding the bills and debt that he’s accumulated so far – he’s made a fortune! He’ll be rich and living on easy-street for the rest of his life!

Harry, however, rubs at the side of his mouth, the shame not quite leaving him as quickly. It picks at him. It gnaws at him.

They grin. They drink to their luck, and the museum’s bad fortune.

They steal again in the morning.

GOSH. I probably should have asked, but if you don't want me quoting your drabble here, I'll take it down right away. I just love it too much. <33
