I’ve been doing a lot of rereading of the 23k of state of disrepair that’s already written and very little writing of it so here. y’all can join me in that.

“Again, I understand why you had to go on this little Eat Pray Love trip.”

Steve looks up, slightly startled, but doesn’t get a chance to say anything before Danny continues.

“And I’m not mad at you about it. But if you ever leave me again, Steven, I will kill you myself.” It doesn’t come out quite as rock-hard as Danny might have liked, softened by a miniscule waver in his voice at the end. Most people wouldn’t even pick it up, but he hears it, so he’s sure Steve does too.

“No vacations without Danny. I’ll write it down.” When Danny looks over at him, he’s looking back, quiet and heavy, solemn enough that Danny knows he understood.

“Exactly,” he replies. “Don’t start taking too long at the store either, or I’ll be heading for the kitchen knives.”

Steve shakes his head. “Of course your murder weapon of choice would be a butcher blade.”

“Don’t demean the classics,” Danny chides. “They got many a housewife out of a bad marriage.”

“You know, I don’t think I like the turn this conversation is taking.”

Danny stops, considers, and frowns. “Me neither. I think I just called myself a housewife.”

“And this a bad marriage,” Steve adds, gesturing between them, an offended emphasis on ‘bad’.

#my writing #itwoodbeprefect #Hawaii Five 0 #McDanno #state of disrepair #once again am i ever not thinking about aloha? doubtful #this is from chapter 2 and i did figure out last week what my chapter beats were #1 is setup (premise + fic vibes); 2 is working out lingering Aloha feelings/tension; 3 is fake-married reveal + first kiss; #4 is Crisis. Escalation. y'know that little peak on the story structure diagram; 5 is diagnosis (of both Steve's medical issue #and the reason they keep kissing each other) (spoilers they're in love); 6 is resolution + actual getting together #6.5 is going home epilogue if i decide to keep that #(to be clear when i say 3 is fake-married reveal. reveal to Steve and Cath bc prior to that only Danny knows he's created that Situation) #(the medical staff remain under the impression they're married the entire time bc well. they kinda are) #mine
