OBD Drabble: Loss

[valmora]

for lasarus, because I promised her, many moons ago, an OBD slash fic.

Well, this is it. I had to borrow Buzzby for a little while, but I hope she won't mind. It's more Jonny than Buzzby, anyway.

Title: Loss
Rating: PG
Fandom: RPS celtic!bandslash - Old Blind Dogs
Pairing: Jonny Hardie/Buzzby McMillan
Notes: I don’t know when Mr. Hardie met his now-wife, Kym. I’m pretending she doesn't exist. That’s why this is fiction, which segues nicely into:
Disclaimer: This is a work of fiction. Resemblance to real people is deliberate, but the intention of this piece is not to imply that the events or situations discussed actually occurred.



He doesn’t really miss Buzzby. Not as a person, since he still sees him a lot. But as a musician? Yes. God, yes. Aaron doesn’t fix the tear that Buzzby put in the band, doesn’t quite patch up all the holes. It’s not the same, and Jonny misses him.

And of course things are still great and the band still plays with a fire that the critics love, but it’s not the same. Never will be, because Johnny misses Buzzby like he would miss the music if he ever lost his hands and went deaf and could never compose again.

I stole it from somewhere; I don't remember where. I'm glad you like it, though. ^_~
