Title: And I want to tell you so much (I love you)
Rating: PG-13
Pairing: Mark/Eduardo
Prompt: For the following [livejournal.com profile] tsn_kinkmeme request: Mark may have kept all those little notes Eduardo left him during college. The ones that say things like, 'Eat something and stop drinking Red Bull. I refuse to take you to EMS again' and 'I did your washing. I expect sexual favours as compensation' in Eduardo's prim and proper handwriting.
Note: I’ve never done a media fic before but I loved putting this together, even though it took up over nine hours of my life. It was fun. If I weren't so tired, I'd try to write a drabble for all 26 of these dates. Maybe some day. I don’t think my handwriting would ever match what could be Eduardo’s, but I did my best. I hope you don’t mind two wholly different fills, anon!

And, yeah, the receipt I used is for Krystal. I couldn’t find another one in my house. I didn’t want to screw with continuity but it was my only good option. ;_;

I’m also pretending Joshua Radin’s “One of Those Days” was not written in 2008 because apparently I didn’t plan appropriately last night. ;_;





Stuck inside Mark’s Intro to Psychology book on September 17, 2002.




Set on Mark’s stomach after Eduardo, Dustin and Chris dumped him on his bed on October 1, 2002.




Slipped under Mark’s door in the early hours of October 2, 2002.




Crumpled in Mark’s fist after happy-faced Eduardo’s breakfast was paid for on October 13, 2002.




Squeezed between the index and middle fingers of Mark’s right hand on November 1, 2002.




Crudely drawn in Mark’s CS notebook on November 2, 2002.




Found under Mark’s bed the morning of November 27, 2002.




Rescued from the floor at Trader Joe’s on February 2, 2003.




Circled in highlighter on the front page of the Crimson on April 28, 2003.




Folded carefully five times in an envelope postmarked Brazil on June 20, 2003.




Adhered to Mark’s forehead the morning of September 15, 2003.




Slid discreetly across the table on a double date while the girls were in the bathroom on October 23, 2003.




Propped against a water bottle on Eduardo’s nightstand on Halloween morning 2003.




Laid on top of Mark’s keyboard in the middle of the day on November 19, 2003.




Paper-clipped to Mark’s “New Co” sketches on December 11, 2003.




Tucked into Mark’s hoodie pocket at 6:53 AM on December 26, 2003.




Left on top of Mark’s suitcase at some point in the morning on January 2, 2004.




Stashed inside Mark’s bookbag after being found on his desk on February 3, 2004.




Placed on Mark’s face after Eduardo shook him awake the evening of February 14, 2004.




Hidden inside a Whole Foods bag on March 29, 2004.




Noted by Eduardo, emoticon-d by Mark and written across in highlighter by Dustin in April 2004.




Arrived inside a box full of so many things on September 15, 2006.




Crumpled in a manila folder that held settlement papers on June 21, 2009.

What an awesome multimedia fill. I love the amount of thought put into it with you collecting and using stuff around your place. Sounds so cute.

I would have pegged Eduardo to be the emoticon-er though xD

Thanks for sharing <3

Lol well I had to compromise. Either Wardo made he faces or he wrote the instances and it just doesn't seem to me that Mark would do the latter so. :)

Thank you so much for the kind comment!

I love the concept of media fics more than I usually love media fics, because I think they're pretty hard to pull off, but you did it beautifully. This is wonderful.
