Characters: four adults who did some things they might regret...



Hangover

Giles wakes up with a headache, and a t-shirt that smells of cigarette smoke.

What did I…?

Then he remembers — Ethan, chocolate, shoplifting, Joyce, police car, handcuffs

Oh dear.

* * *

Joyce wakes up from a dream of a hunky guy with a gun and a reckless grin, the two of them taking the town by storm… and tries to convince herself she’s much more embarrassed about it than she actually feels.

* * *

Snyder wakes up, remembers, and instantly resolves to give detention to the next fifty students he sees.

* * *

Ethan doesn’t sleep that night. He just counts his profit, and leaves smiling.

I love it and it's perfectly in character for each of them.

This painted a vivid, in character morning after. Snyder taking his embarrassment out on the student body was especially fitting.

Aha: a tag, not a missing scene. And a believable one, too. Hooray for Joyce's baser instincts!

(I'm considering Snyder!poetry for this. Someone should probably stop me.)

My these were really nice. Drabbles usually leave me wanting more, but this told of the aftermath very succinctly and in character. Good job.

love it :)

I still have a plot bunny for an AU with Joyce getting pregnant, but it's never come to fruition yet.
