FAKE Double Drabble: Foiling Rose

[bk_forever]

Title: Foiling Rose

Author: badly_knitted

Characters: Dee, Ryo, Berkeley Rose

Rating: PG

Setting: Vol. 3, Act 8

Summary: Dee needs to protect Ryo from Rose’s unwelcome advances.

Written For: Prompt at end.

Disclaimer: I don’t own FAKE, or the characters. They belong to the wonderful Sanami Matoh.

A/N: Here’s a double drabble.

Dee doesn’t like the way Rose looks at Ryo; it’s predatory, calculating, sly and lustful, and it doesn’t bode well for his partner. Rose wants Ryo and he’s the kind of guy who’s used to getting what he wants.

Ryo has a lot of good qualities, but he’s completely oblivious to some things. In particular, he never notices when he’s being hit on, and he’s been in Rose’s office an awfully long while. A little timely intervention might be a good idea. Ryo’s kind of an airhead, but Dee can’t have the Commissioner getting his slimy paws on the man he himself has been pursuing for so long.

Opening the door to Rose’s office without bothering to knock, Dee’s just in time to see Ryo backed up against the wall as Rose moves in for a kiss. That won’t do at all, but it’s easy enough for Dee to block him with a well-placed file.

Disaster averted.

Rose definitely isn’t pleased, he glares daggers at Dee, who glares right back, but Ryo actually seems relieved to be rescued and only too happy to accept his partner’s invitation to the shooting range.

Maybe Dee has a chance with him after all.

The End

Ryo really needs to figure out when he is being hit on.

He'll just never get it, partly because he can't understand WHY anyone would hit on him. Poor boy, he just has no idea how attractive he is, which just makes him even more attractive, lol!

Thankfully, Dee will protect him from unwanted attentions whenever possible. And when Ryo DOES realise what's going on, he's pretty good at defending himself, as Rose will discover!

Thank you!

*ROTFLMA*
As much as I absolutely adore Rose - and do wish he'd get a chance with Ryo! - I know that either Dee or Bikky would be there to interfere.
.....
....
...come to think of it: is there any fanfic anywhere where Ryo is being hit on by Rose and it's BIKKY to the rescue? Because Dee is unavailable for some (valid!) reason.

I'm a Ryo/Dee girl all the way, I think Diana is more what Rose needs, she'll keep him in line if he'd just open his eyes and see what's right under his nose instead of hopelessly lusting after Ryo.

Ryo might not realise it yet, but he's already decided it's Dee he wants.

I've never seen any fics with Bikky rescuing Ryo from Rose, but then I haven't read a lot of FAKE fanfic. There's not all that much anyway, much of it is incomplete and the quality is rather variable. I think on the fake_2nd_chance roleplay, there were a few scenes where Bikky was less than nice to Rose.

Thank you!

Haha, brilliant! Dee to the rescue! Oh, how would poor Ryo ever survive in this world without the help of Dee and Bikky? xD

Dee is always ready to protect his baby from Rose's unwanted attentions. It's not really that Ryo can't protect himself, it's just that sometimes he's just not aware that he needs to, lol!

Thank you!

Poor Ryo is completely oblivious!

[bk_forever]

Yeah, but we love him for it, right? Even if it's frustrating for Dee, lol!

(Vol. 3, page 34, right at the top... I just adore grumpy Ryo in that frame, lol! And then the kiss! *grins*)

Thank you!
