Summary: "Rock woke up already groping after his memories of the preceding night. His mind played coy."

Rock woke up already groping after his memories of the preceding night.

His mind played coy.

Rock gingerly touched his forehead, wincing at the throb of his headache, beating with the same rhythm as his heart.

Next to him, Revy stretched and rolled over, dragging the pillow over her head.

The image of her, tan, naked skin, the sheet twisted around her torso, her calves, thighs, and her dark triangle of pubic hair all completely bare didn't jog his memory - his memory more stumbled a few times and then collapsed in a heap.

He remembered -

Revy half-bent back over the table, hands fisted and resting on his shoulders while his lips moved tentatively against hers.

He remembered-

cupping her through denim and then carefully, carefully, carefully pulling the zipper open, sliding her shorts down her legs.

He remembered -

Revy tugging him down the hallway, stumbling, pulling him into his room by his tie while he kept touching her naked breasts, her naked belly, her naked her, his fingers sliding into her heat.

Rock tugged one end of the sheet over his lap, propped his knees up, and rested his painful head on them.

Next to him, Revy shifted distractingly and then sat up, the pillow falling to the floor.

"'Morning," she said slurred and then started looking around.

"I'm terribly sorry," Rock started, "but I can't remember where I put your clothes.

Dutch ambled into the galley, scratching his abs idly.

It was a morning for bacon and eggs, he decided. Or maybe pancakes. Or possibly pancakes and bacon and eggs. If there was any milk for the pancake mix.

He hitched his pale blue boxers further up his hips and pulled open the refrigerator door. Yep, milk, eggs, Revy's panties, bacon in the meat drawer.

Dutch closed the fridge door, rubbed the sleep out of his eyes, and opened it again.

One pair of precisely folded cut off shorts. Under one perfectly folded black tank top. And spread on top of those two items like a flag of surrender were Revy's white cotton bikini panties.

Clearly, those feminine grunts, those masculine moans, the slap of flesh on flesh hadn't been Benny turning his porn up too loud. Again.

Dutch pinched the bridge of his nose. He'd like to think that Rock and Rebecca resolving their unresolved sexual tension would make his life easier, but his mother hadn't raised a fool. No, this would only make things more complicated, not less.

And when the shit hit the fan, he needed to be ready. And fed.

Ignoring the pile of clothing sitting on the top shelf, Dutch grabbed the eggs, milk, bacon, and tomato juice.

He piled them on the counter, yawned, stretched and wondered where Revy's bra was.

"None of your damn business," he told himself and went to get the pancake mix.

Turns out Revy's bra was dangling from the no brand corn flakes box by one strap.

Dutch slide out the box of mix, tossed it on top of the other ingredients, and went to go find aspirin.

Oh, yeah, resolving the sexual tension was going to resolve nothing, Dutch could already tell.

Awsomeness!! <3 love love love!
One question.... Revy wears a bra?! XD

8D

After seeing her do backflips while firing her guns I'd say yes she wears a bra (unless she's like every other animated girl who has breast defying gravity magic.)
Monday, June 29th, 2009 06:29 pm (UTC)
I'd say breast defying gravity magic, cause in other molesting cases they seem braless... Oh the lolz! XD

With those boobs? I would think so! (But she is an anime girl - the laws of physics often do not apply.
Monday, June 29th, 2009 02:50 pm (UTC)
LOL

Okay, that was cute.
Wednesday, July 1st, 2009 05:51 am (UTC)
Thank you!
Monday, June 29th, 2009 03:46 pm (UTC)
LOL, I love that the clothes were all neatly folded in the fridge.

I love your icons!

Thanks! That one's gankable if you want it. The credit is on the icon page. :D

The clothes in the kitchen was amazing and unexpected. Thank you for writing one of my favorite and hard to find pairings.
Wednesday, July 1st, 2009 06:22 am (UTC)
It was my pleasure!
Monday, June 29th, 2009 04:43 pm (UTC)
... and now I really need to read this series. XD
Monday, June 29th, 2009 06:03 pm (UTC)
Yes you do! <333
Wednesday, July 1st, 2009 06:20 am (UTC)
You absolutely do.
Monday, June 29th, 2009 04:53 pm (UTC)
LMFAO

Seconding the clothes in the kitchen was amazing and unexpected comment. It capped off the fic in a great way.
Wednesday, July 1st, 2009 06:18 am (UTC)
Thank you! The clothes in the fridge was kind of what the fic was built around.
Monday, June 29th, 2009 06:05 pm (UTC)
First of all, I am completely in love with your Dutch voice. It's so spot on, and I could almost see the panel by panel reaction of him opening up the fridge XD

Also, major squee points for Rock folding Revy's clothes and apologizing for not remembering XDDD

And I can totally see Benny turning his porn up to surround sound just to aggravate Dutch >:D

Thank you! The bit with Dutch was my favorite bit to write.

Also, major squee points for Rock folding Revy's clothes and apologizing for not remembering XDDD

You know he would.

And as for the porn... Benny could either be just aggravating Dutch or just being oblivious - I imagine they're rather in each other's pockets on board that boat.
Tuesday, June 30th, 2009 05:23 pm (UTC)
He would. Even drunk, he could manage to locate an ironing board. Oh, Rock.

And as for the porn... Benny could either be just aggravating Dutch or just being oblivious - I imagine they're rather in each other's pockets on board that boat.


Oh yeah, I didn't mean in a mean-spirited kind of way XD kind of like a little brother teasing an older brother <3
Tuesday, June 30th, 2009 10:55 pm (UTC)
Even drunk, he could manage to locate an ironing board. Oh, Rock.

And the starch. I imagine Rock could be too drunk to talk, to drunk to walk and still tie a perfect double windsor knot.
Tuesday, June 30th, 2009 01:58 am (UTC)
So he had the time to fold her things? That's really funny. I like how you involved the whole courier crew in here, haha, especially Dutch (well, didn't know he'd get bothered by the sounds with all the porn magazines he has).
Tuesday, June 30th, 2009 02:51 am (UTC)
I imagine there was folding going on inbetween other things. ^_^
Tuesday, June 30th, 2009 05:52 pm (UTC)
LOL

that's great! Poor Dutch.
Tuesday, June 30th, 2009 10:54 pm (UTC)
Thank you!

I don't read a lot of Black Lagoon fic, so this absolutely made my day. Dutch finding Revy's clothes in the fridge neatly folded (and her bra hanging on the cornflakes box) was an absolute riot. Oh, Rock... ^_^
Tuesday, July 7th, 2009 03:23 am (UTC)
Thank you!
Saturday, July 11th, 2009 02:20 am (UTC)

LOL! As if Dutch's life weren't complicated enough. I wonder how much Revy and Rock had to drink - they both seem to have pretty impressive capacities!

Saturday, July 11th, 2009 04:10 am (UTC)
Great Dutch icon.

And yeah, I imagine he has to play the adult a LOT on the Lagoon. And as for how much Rock and Revy drank... I imagine quite a lot.

I love this. Very nicely done. I'm always pleased when I see more Revy/Rock fiction. Dutch's reaction is right on the mark. Although I'm a little curious as to why and how most of Revy's clothes wound up in the fridge, not to mention why Rock apparently had enough time to fold them up nicely like he was doing laundry. Or why the bra happened to end up on the cornflakes box.

I wouldn't say that resolving the unresolved sexual tension wouldn't necessarily solve any problems. It would certainly solve a few problems. Of course it would create a few new ones as well. But the fact that Revy didn't kill Rock straight off, and that Dutch wasn't interrupted by the sounds of bloody murder, indicate that things seem to be looking up for the couple, as much as they can at any rate.
Saturday, October 17th, 2009 09:53 am (UTC)
I imagine Rock insisted on folding the clothes, and I'm sure that where he put them made complete sense at the time.

I wouldn't say that resolving the unresolved sexual tension wouldn't necessarily solve any problems.

Oh, certainly not with these two! Adding sex into the mix is just going to make things more intense and dredge up old issues!

I just reread this fic and then realized that apparently I never commented to tell you how TOTALLY AWESOME it is! I especially love all the little character details - Benny's habit of turning his porn up too loud, Rock being considerate enough to fold up Revy's clothes (even while drunk), Revy's panties looking like a flag of surrender, and everything about Dutch's inner monologue. "None of your damn business" was hilarious and so very Dutch. And I was really struck by this image:

his memory more stumbled a few times and then collapsed in a heap.

Anyway, A++ fic!
Tuesday, November 10th, 2009 03:36 am (UTC)
Well, thank you!

You just know Benny turns up his porn too loud.

And Dutch was the easiest bit of this fic to write - the words just flowed.
Saturday, November 7th, 2009 05:19 am (UTC)
That was amazing! Dutch's voice was excellent. He's so long-suffering.
Saturday, November 7th, 2009 06:24 am (UTC)
Thank you!

And yes, Dutch is long-suffering. Have you read the latest chapter? I'm VERY curious to find out more about his backstory.
Sunday, November 22nd, 2009 11:32 pm (UTC)
Oh God, this was absolutely priceless! <333 It was so nicely, deliciously hot at first and then so absolutely lulzy in the second part - I appreciate the wonderful high quality! Lovely writing! x3333 Memming~
Tuesday, November 24th, 2009 12:37 am (UTC)
Thank you so much for your squee-ful review!
Tuesday, January 5th, 2010 06:05 am (UTC)
Bwah! Oh, thank you for posting the year-end fic recap, I somehow missed this the first time around. I can sooooo see Rock, in a drunken fit of passion, getting fixated on folding and putting away the discarded clothes just so...even if the places he put them don't make much sense in the sober light of day. XD

And yes, the Dutch voice here is great. He really needs more fandom love -- hell, this whole SERIES needs more fandom love! The scarcity of fic for this continues to break my heart. *hearts*
Tuesday, January 5th, 2010 06:58 pm (UTC)
You're very welcome!

And the thought of Rock drunkenly insisting on really precisely removing Revy's clothes and then putting them in the fridge fills me with lolz.

Dutch was a blast to write. I really hope we get his backstory soon.

Loved the jovial tone to the entire thing. I had two favorite lines::::

"And when the shit hit the fan, he needed to be ready. And fed." (This was the LAWLS)

and

"I'm terribly sorry," Rock started, "but I can't remember where I put your clothes. (Which was soooo beautiful in so many ways)

Monday, June 7th, 2010 08:47 am (UTC)
I'm glad you liked it.

"I'm terribly sorry," Rock started, "but I can't remember where I put your clothes. (Which was soooo beautiful in so many ways)

This was one of the first lines I 'heard' in my head when I got bunnied for this story.
