Summary: Well, nobody ever said their fairy talent was keeping secrets.



“It wasn’t really-”

“We weren’t-”

“The thing is-”

Tinker Bell just smiles at them, nodding her head in what could be interpreted as a sympathetic and understanding manner if she wasn’t obviously trying very hard not to giggle.

“What happened was, uh, we were walking,” Bobble blusters, and he hopes his goggles don’t magnify the way his eyes are darting back and forth.

“Yeah, we were walking,” Clank chimes in, nodding hard enough that he has to be hurting his neck.

“We were walking, and I tripped!” Bobble exclaims suddenly and triumphantly enough that Tinker Bell actually takes a step backwards.

“We were walking and he tripped!” Clank shouts helpfully.

“And Clank was hel-”

“I was helping him!” Clank cuts in, sounding a little too enthusiastic. “Because he fell!”

“Yes, and it hurt to walk, so, yes, I needed Clank’s help,” Bobble says hurriedly, forcing what he hopes is a confident grin onto his face.

“It hurt him to walk!” Clank cries, nodding so much now that he’s actually rising off of the floor with each jerk of his head.

Tinker Bell watches him for a moment, eyes moving up and down, before she turns to Bobble with what he recognises as a mischievous smile.

“So why didn’t you just fly?” she asks politely.

Bobble feels himself gape at her. Clank stops nodding, feet hovering just above the ground.

“Err, why didn’t you just fly?” Clank asks him, sounding hopeful that Bobble has another emergency excuse.

Unfortunately, Bobble’s mind doesn’t seem to want to do anything but buzz at him like an impossibly loud bumblebee.

Tinker Bell giggles as he slaps himself on the forehead, making the water droplets of his goggles burst and dribble to the floor.

“Don’t worry about it,” Tinker Bell insists with a conspiratorial wink. “It’s nice to see you two … getting along so well.”

Bobble smacks himself on the forehead again.

Clank grins and says, “Thank you, Miss Bell.”

After she’s flown away, hand delicately covering her wide grin, Bobble rounds on Clank.

“I told you not to hold my hand in public!” he exclaims, aware that his arms are probably flapping more than his wings, but too flustered to be able to stop every frantic gesture of his hand. “Tinker fairies are supposed to be professional! We shouldn’t mix work with our private life! Now Tinker Bell’s going to think we keep sneaking off to hold hands!”

Clank stares at him blankly for a moment. “I like holding your hand,” he says as if the thought has taken great consideration.

Bobble grits his teeth and makes a frustrated noise that he hopes distracts Clank sufficiently from the way he can feel himself blushing. The day officially can’t get any worse.

A melodic giggle from just behind him tells him differently.

“Hi, Mary Fairy,” Clank cries with a cheery wave over Bobble’s shoulder.

“Hello, you two,” Mary Fairy replies, and Bobble really doesn’t trust that amused tone to her voice.

“I think I need some fresh air,” he mutters to himself.

“Okay, let’s go then,” Clank replies and, before Bobble can respond, Clank firmly grabs his hand and drags him skyward.

When he glances back, he can see Mary Fairy watching them with the same affectionate grin Tinker Bell had worn only moments ago.

Bobble is pretty sure that he’s doomed, but he can’t bring himself to let go of Clank’s hand. He never can.

^___^ Clank and Bobble are just too adorable for words.

Aw, that was so cute! :-) I never really thought of those two being together, my attention being mostly on the girls in the movies, but this was very sweet! Thanks for sharing.

BTW, if you'd be interested, there's a Disney/DreamWorks/X-Men comm that's currently looking for some good writers to sign up; http://community.livejournal.com/xdisneydreamers/ if you'd like to check it out. We have a weekly challenge, too.

Yeah, my attention tends to stray towards the girls (because they are awesome) so I wanted to try ficcing for the poor neglected lads. ;)

Oooh, that sounds interesting, I'll have a poke around. Thank you for the link.

Glad you're interested; it'd be an honor to have a writer with such talent join us.

Ah man, you flatter me waaay too much. ^___^

I'll try to post some stuff either tomorrow or Monday (today's a busy kind of day). Quick question though - if I share this story there, would you prefer the fandom tag to be 'Disney Fairies' or 'Tinker Bell' or something else?

Aye, I know what you mean about today being busy. Today's our Monday, and believe me you, we really don't want to go in, but who does ever want to go in to work? Any way, thrilled you've joined up, and I think perhaps Disney Faeries is better to go with. I've been seeing that popping up on more and more of the Disney merchandise concerning the movies, so I think that's the fandom title for which they're beginning to aim. Looking forward to those posts!

I've made my first post over there. ^___^ I don't have a huge backlog of Disney fic or anything but I'll try to space out posting it over the next few weeks so I don't spam people's flists and fill up the front page.

Post as you wish. We're a small group, still growing. What fandoms do you normally write in?

Lots of different fandoms, although some I've only written one or two fics for. There's a list at the top of this page (http://salmon-pink.livejournal.com/75200.html). :)

Some interesting pairings. I was pleased to see Bruce/Alfred amongst them. That's also one of my preferred pairings for the Big Bat (as well as Selina and Dick), and one that gets far too little love. I have to admit I have an even bigger playground in which I like to play, and even this (http://www.fanfiction.net/~PiratesSparrowandTurner) listing is a few months behind.

I have a real soft spot for Bruce/Alfred. :3

Damn, that's a lot of fics! Awesome!

Thanks, and it's good to know. :-) There really isn't enough Bruce/Al love to go around, and I do tire so of the flammers. I'll never understand why a person persists in reading a fic that is clearly labeled to contain a pairing of whom they do not approve.
