TF: Red AlertxInferno Drabbles

Title: Another Drabble Spectacular, November 8th
Rating: PG13
Series: G1
Summary: Drabbles concerning Red Alert and Inferno, based on the word of the day from Dictionary.com
Warnings: None
Disclaimer: As per usual, the good things in life are not mine to have, but belong to someone else... in this case Hasbro, Takara and IDW and anyone else I’ve forgotten…
Authors Notes: It’s official – I am mad.  Having started the [info]houndxmirage Three's a Charm challenge, [info]flarn_fanfic said how she wished someone was doing something similar for [info]redxinferno.  And I’m easily suggestible when it comes to that pairing.  So I shall be attempting a drabble (100 words) every day.  Feel free to poke me (gently) if I miss a day?
Feedback makes friends.  Flames dealt with by the masters of paranoia and fire, Red Alert and Inferno.


November 08 – demotic
The ceremony was performed twice, once in the higher language of the nobles, and again in the more demotic language.  Red Alert shifted impatiently during the noble rendering, hating that they had to go through this because of his heritage.  A heritage he’d tried hard to forget.  He far preferred the simpler language most common mechs used.  The language Inferno used.  The language Inferno had used to court him.  None of this fancy, roundabout way of speaking that was common amongst the nobles.  Inferno had just come out and said what he wanted.  And what he wanted was Red Alert.

Aww, that's so sweet. And it makes a certain amount of sense. People interpret Red Alert's very British sounding voice as upper class, whereas people tend to view Inferno's voice patterns as more working class. But Red Alert knows first hand just how romantic plain speaking can be.

I love this one. A different look at Red's origins.

*happy dance* This one is great! What a cool look at Red Alert and his origins.

Yes, Inferno's plain speaking is a wonderful part of him. Says what he means, means what he says.

♥ I love that last sentence.

*nods* Red Alert thinks that anything Inferno says is romantic, just don't tell Inferno that ;)

*blush* I had to reword everything because I wanted to get that sentence in there!
