A lover's kiss is better than angels raining down on me.*

Nanowrimo Day 5: I've written 2,986 word today. Catch-up is murder. I've written two italics scenes (i.e. random little one shots), a kissing scene, a plotting scene... Oh gods. Tomorrow I'm hopefully reaching a fun bit and introducing a snarky character. But for now, I will go die over in that corner.

Excerpt:

"Yeah, but you still listen. I’ve seen you. Would you know? If what Kezef did work, wouldn’t there be something that you could pick up?"

Icarus turned to face Chip, leaning in so his face was just a hair’s breadth away from Chip’s. He looked Chip straight in the eye. "Would you?" he whispered. His voice was low, gravelly and hard.

Chip felt a shiver run down his back and his mouth grew dry. "I - I didn’t - I’m..." he stammered, unable to look anywhere but Icarus’ blue eyes even though he really, really wanted to. He was starting to remember that Icarus used to scare the living daylights out of him.

Icarus tilted his head to one side. "Human, remember?"
