You Can't Hide - a Mick POV drabble - PG

Post by Lilly »

Special thanks to Lucky (librarian_7) who came up with the idea of the "Between the Lines" drabbles -- drabbles set between two lines of dialogue (or in the pause in the middle of one line of dialogue) from the show. The one that started it all and inspired several writers to explore the idea can be found here: Between Two Words



This one is from Sleeping Beauty.

----------



“You can run but you can’t hide…”

Who are you kidding, man? You spend most of your waking hours hiding – camouflaged, wearing a mask of cynicism – and I usually let you get away with it. It’s more comfortable that way. For both of us. I may be younger – and I can’t even begin to imagine what four hundred years does to a soul – but I do know the difference between hiding, running away, and being pulled by something stronger than yourself. Just know, no matter what I said, whatever way you’re heading – I’ve got your back.

“Not from me – Charles.”

Lilly, thank you so much for reposting this. I love the way Mick's goodness and friendship and smartness comes through in this. He doesn't need to spell it out for Josef, but he sure knows him in and out.
Very nice. I can hear this almost as a voice over.

Mick--what a guy to have at your back. This really does sound like a voiceover. You nailed Mick's and Josef's relationship in this little piece, Lilly. Aww... it makes me a little teary. :cry:

This is wonderful! You have put into words beautifully what was unsaid in that scene of Sleeping Beauty.

Thanks!

Thank you so much, Jenna. :rose: There was a look there, for just a moment, that said "I know you better than you think I do." I just hoped I could capture that.

Who needs a friend when he has a Mick in his life, right? Lilly, spartan, yet meaningful

Thank you, maggatha. :flowers: And Mick really is more than a friend, isn't he? Even if Josef would never admit it out loud.

Just reread this wonderful little exposition of that look.

With actors of the caliber we had here, there was so much there...between the lines.

Thank you!
