Atypical Shakespearean Romance

By: Sinead

 

Author’s Note: Got back from Botcon, and I just HAD to do a Silverbolt/Blackarachnia drabble-fic. I don’t know why. Well. Maybe I do. But still. I had to. So shoot me. I’m re-entering my Silverbolt fangirl stage. And I like it. It’s fun. Zucca, eat your heart out at the corny sappiness. I bet you could come up with better, but let’s not turn this into a competition, shall we? *winks*

 


 

“Dark poison . . .”

 

“Go on.”

 

“My soul’s dark desires . . .”

 

“I’ll vouch for the dark part.”

 

“Black rose of my heart . . .”

 

“Getting better . . .”

 

“Death never hath an embrace warmer . . .”

 

“. . . what?”

 

“The angel of death’s softest touch . . .”

 

“Okay.”

 

“Everlasting kiss of betrayal . . .”

 

“. . . betrayal?”

 

“Never-ending dark salve to my broken heart . . .”

 

“Mm . . . I like that ‘dark’ bit.”

 

“Dark retainer of my love . . .”

 

“You can do better.”

 

“Veiled receptor of my undying affection . . .”

 

“Mm-hm.”

 

“Mate of the darkest desires of my Spark . . .”

“Yes.”

 

“Lover and beloved of the most shadowed corner of my immortal Spark.”

 

“Yes.”

 

“. . .”

 

“Something wrong?”

 

“I believe that I’ve managed to exhaust my verbal creativity.”

 

“See? It is harder than you thought it was, beloved.”

 

Blackarachnia chortled, laying back against her Fuzor mate, staring up at the stars. “Yeah . . . you need a special kind of mind to come up with those sappy lines.”

 

Stroking her brow tenderly, Silverbolt whispered, “Very true, dark flame of my heart. But.”

 

“But?”

 

“What the mind produces is nothing when there is no beloved lover to bestow these endearments upon. There can only be one where there is the other, sweetest heart.”

 

Smiling up at Silverbolt, seeing his face upside-down, Blackarachnia grinned. “Oh, shut up and kiss me, bowser.”

 

And so he did.
