"Granger, I saw you. With my eyes." David had three beers in his system, reinforcing his latent stubbornness. "I know you can fly, man."

"I can't fly, David." Colby was really just worn out from arguing. "I can -- oh, lemme show you." With a resigned sigh, he climbed onto the couch, then to its arm. David's eyebrows shot up, his eyes lighting with a mix of concern and curiosity. "Three, two," Colby counted, focusing his concentration, and on "one" he jumped.

"Hey!" David shot to his feet, then froze, watching Colby bob in midair as if in invisible water. "Hey," he repeated much more softly, slowly reaching out. Colby carefully pulled in his arms and legs, rotating in midair, starfishing around to face David as David cautiously set fingertips on his waist.

"So, yeah," Colby said eventually. "I can, um, hover. And let myself down --" his toes brushed the floor, then his heels settled lightly, "--easy as well as hard."

"Wow," David said, hand still pressed to Colby's side. "Wow. Super!Colby."

"Secret!Colby," he replied, gripping David's wrist. "People known to have powers tend to disappear, okay?"

David nodded soberly. "I won't tell a soul. Pinky swear." Then he grinned, and Colby had to laugh.

Hee! This is adorable. Any chance of a sequel?

he he very good, I guess that's why he's so willing to jump off stuff :-)

[sororcula.livejournal.com]

EXCELLENT.

[magisterequitum.livejournal.com]

SuperColby indeed!

Fantastic.

[emmademarais.livejournal.com]

HEE!

People have been calling him Super!Colby for a while so it's hilarious to finally have him actually *written* as Super!Colby! LOL

I like that it's hovering, not flying. Big difference IMHO. Plus it explains all the jumping he does. Hard to be scared about jumping off high places when you know you don't have to hit the ground like other people do. /grins/

Fun! Yay for a Heroes crossover! Thank you for playing with us this summer. I'm really enjoying all these new universes. :-)

Eeeee! I lurve it. It's like he can swim in air!

Also, Daaaaaaavid. Can David have a superpower next? He's so cute in this, all drunk and stubborn.

"Hey," he repeated much more softly, slowly reaching out.

He kinda sounds like he's wondering how this can expand their sex life. *giggles*

Aw, I love it! Particularly the pinky swear!

I like this. It's just enough Heroes to make sense and not too much to push the Numb3rs aside.
Does that make sense?

*giggles with you* I have no excuse, really.

[rubynye.livejournal.com]

*beam* Thanks. I just have to think of it...

[rubynye.livejournal.com]

Exactly! \o/

*curtseys* Thank you. :)

That's why I had to do it!

And oh, this challenge is such fun. *hugs you gratefully*

In that moment, David was TOTALLY wondering about how they could use this for sex. :D

(I think David's superpower is gentle awesomeness, is the thing.)

[rubynye.livejournal.com]

How *better* to indicate his seriousness than a pinky swear? *grin*

[rubynye.livejournal.com]

That totally makes sense, and is a wonderful compliment! Thank you!

(I think David's superpower is gentle awesomeness, is the thing.)

Of course it is! Silly me.

Oh my god the coolest thing EVER. Seriously, I have the BIGGEST (and goofiest) grin EVER right now.

Thanks for sharing this!!

*grins, blushing* Thank you, very much. It was... I just had to write it.
