New dialog fic.

[clex_monkie89]

I need kid pictures of them. And by them I don't mean the freaks who played the younger them in the flashbacks, I mean either Dominic and Went (They aren't popular enough yet to have any out) or kids who look like them. I have that one of Mini!Michael from TWoP but nothing for Mini!Linc.

Also? Not crossposting until I get a title for this. This means help.

Summary: "Did you know that the ancient Egyptians used to shave their eyebrows off when their cats died?"




"Did you know that the ancient Egyptians used to shave their eyebrows off when their cats died?"

"What?"

"It was a sign of mourning. To show that they were sad."

"Okay?"

"Is that why you shaved your head; cause you were sad? Because it makes you look really ugly."

"Oh fuck you, you don't know shit. I look good."

"You look like someone glued half a butt to the back of your head."

"Hey, a hundred bucks is a hundred bucks."

"Derrick's not gonna give you the money."

"Is too."

"Is not."

"Is too."

"Is not."

"Is too."

"Is not."

"Is too."

"Is not."

"Is too."

"Is not, he don't even have his own cigarettes, he has to steal them from his brother."

"That's only 'cause he's not allowed to buy them."

"You're not gonna see the money."

"Shouldn't you be studying for your stupid spelling bee?"

"Nope, dropped out."

"What? Why the fuck did you do that?"

"Because I'm not gonna win."

"Course you ain't gonna win if you drop out stupid, why'd you drop out?"

"I can't beat Curtis Jacobs, he got bussed out to Arlington Heights last year and he got As in everything up there."

"He only got As because the teachers didn't want to get in trouble for flunking the only black kid there."

"I'm a tell mama on you Lincoln, that's racism and being racism is bad."

"The word is racist and it ain't racist if it's true. Curtis Jacobs is dumber than a sack of shit and he don't even know good enough to cheat off the smart kids in school."

"I'm still tellin' mama."

"Tell mama on me and you're gonna have to tell her you ain't studyin' like you supposedto."

"...Still shouldn't say it."

"Just because I shouldn't do it don't mean I ain't gonna."

"Mama's gonna beat your butt when she see what you did to your head."

"No she wont, it's my hair I can do what I want."

"She's gonna beat you."

"No she wont."

"Your butt's gonna be so red you ain't never gonna be able to sit down again."

"I'm a grown man. She can't do shit to me."

"Y'ain't no man, you're only thirteen and she's gonna kill you."

"She will not."

"Then why's she glaring at you like that right now?"

"What? --Mama! I can explain! Michael dropped out of the spelling bee!"

"Lincoln said black people are stupid!"

"Did not!"

"Did too!"

"Did not!"

"Did too!"

"Did n--"

"Enough! Go to your room right now; both of you!"

"But mama--"

"Lincoln Patrick Burrows if you ever want to see daylight again you'll get in your room right now."

"Yes ma'am."

"And if either of you two even lay a finger on each other I'm throwing the TV right off the balcony, understood?"

"Yes'm."

"Yes mama."

"Now march."

...

...

"...Is that my dish towel covered in hair? Lincoln!"

I love your dialogue fics. :0) You give such insight to the characters just by using their words.

Thanks for sharing! :0)

"What? --Mama! I can explain! Michael dropped out of the spelling bee!"
"Lincoln said black people are stupid!"


This right here had me laughing out loud. Right now, Julia is quoting this fic and laughing hysterically.

I fucking love you!

Love this, "You look like someone glued half a butt to the back of your head."
Heh!

Not loving the double-negatives. They're jarring, and I still don't find them right for Lincoln (yes, Fox writers, I AM talking to you).

Title... "The Naked Truth", "Head-Butt Ain't Just a Verb", "You Are So Gonna Get It", "Back When Lincoln Was Kind of Naive", "Glaring", "Beacon of Stupidity" (!), "Glowing With Gullibility", "Your Head Is Blinding Me", "I'm Telling Mom!"

Hey, they can't all be winners. ;)

"You look like someone glued half a butt to the back of your head."

Loved this line. So funny! I have to say though that I can't imagine Linc and Michael calling their mom 'mama.' It just...doesn't sound like the word they'd use. But I nitpick too much. Nice job.

[alienmom.livejournal.com]

love it! the title drew me in. :)

"Lincoln Patrick Burrows if you ever want to see daylight again you'll get in your room right now."

change the name and i've said the exact same thing to my brats!! LOL

"And if either of you two even lay a finger on each other I'm coming in there!

is what i said to my two youngest demons shared a room and there always seemed to be a rukus after they were sent in for punishment...you did it, no, you did, you did, you did...mommmmmmm!

ah, the memories :-P

"Did you know that the ancient Egyptians used to shave their eyebrows off when their cats died?"

*giggles* no..

Cutecutecute xP

[becisvolatile.livejournal.com]

Didn't they pluck their eyelashes out too?

I'm fast becoming a devotee of your dialogue fics... this was just so funny!

[dirtandweeds.livejournal.com]

Awwww. If only it really ended that nicely in reality.

[mooyoo.livejournal.com]

Hee, very cute. I have to agree with halfshell, I didn't love the double negatives (more from Michael than Lin, 'cause I have trouble picturing Michael speaking that way even at a young age), but other than that - way cute, especially Michael marking fun of Linc's assy hair-cut. I love your dialogue fics!

[winnaroo.livejournal.com]

Heehee, soo cute.

I love this line:
Is that why you shaved your head; cause you were sad? Because it makes you look really ugly.
because it establishes the tone and setting of the piece simply and hilariously.

I also love how Linc calls Michael's spelling bee stupid, and calls him stupid for dropping out of it, and he's not actually being an ass. He's actually being a supportive big brother, showing interest in his Michael's life and encouraging him to better himself.

I also adore the last line. Poor Mamascofield had her hands full.

[musicophilia.livejournal.com]

I absolutely adored this! I love reading about them as kids. I'm not sure what it is, but maybe just their cuteness!

Sometimes, I wish the writers of PB would bring their mother back, with some conspiracy that maybe The Company kidnapped her. I hate the thought of her not being alive!

ROFLOL! :D

I love your all-dialogue ones. XD
