There are only so many mini-crises you can go through together and still pretend to hate each other, and they reach that limit before they’ve turned nineteen. )

Title: Snapshots
Fandom: Gossip Girl
Ship: Dan/Blair
Rating: PG
Spoilers: Up to series 2, plus mentions of the Dan/Blair promo for S3.
Disclaimer: Say it with me now ~ me ... don't ... own.
Summary: Fifty random moments that make up a beautiful life together
Authors Notes: Written for [info]1sentence where the aim of the game is to write one sentence for each theme.

As always, my most sincere apologies to grammar for the irrevocable abuse I have inflicted upon it. :O) As with the other Snapshots fics, the sentences appear random and are out of chronological order but they do tell a story as a whole.

She knows from the start that this can’t go anywhere, that they are too different, too set in their ways to change for one another, too so not made for one another; and for the first time she doesn’t mind, glad to not have to live up to the expectations of an ‘epic love’ like she has in the past. )

Title: all these riddles that you burn
Fandom: Gossip Girl
Ship: Dan/Blair
Rating: PG
Spoilers: None
Disclaimer: Say it with me now ~ me ... don't ... own. Title comes from I Alone by Live.
Summary: "Dedicated to the one person who will never read this book, and who will never know how much they inspire me, and how much I miss them."
Authors Notes: Dedicated to the awesome [info]holycitygirl, because I can't imagine life without her awesome D/B fics. Seriously, if you haven't already go check out her stuff (after you've read this of course *grin*).

In real life, their story is much simpler.  )

Title: Forget All Your Technicolour Dreams
Fandom: Gossip Girl
Ship: Dan/Blair
Rating: PG
Spoilers: None
Disclaimer: Say it with me now ~ me ... don't ... own. Title comes from Modern Nature by Sondre Lerche.
Summary: He will forever remember this as the moment that changed everything. And nothing. A love story in a thousand and one words.
Authors Notes: The original idea was two hundred-word drabbles, one for each point of view. Then I decided to keep going with hundred-word paragraphs, finally ending in a fic with a thousand and one words. Enjoy. :O)

He never could have imagined standing in her doorway, professing a kinship he was certain she would deny. )

Ship: Dan/Blair
Rating: PG
Spoilers: Set after 2.18 The Age of Dissonance
Disclaimer: Say it with me now ~ me ... don't ... own. Title comes from 'Those You've Known' from the musical Spring Awakening.
Summary: The sound of her voice on the other end of the line stopped being a surprise a while ago. But that doesn’t mean he doesn’t immediately brace himself for whatever drama is coming next.
Authors Notes: For [info]holycitygirl, because she is made of awesome. Enjoy everyone! :O)

It’s the kind of place he would never have stepped into had it not been for that brief moment of bravery and the insane coincidence that led him on the path to the Upper East Side. )

Title: We Could Break A Silver Lining
Fandom: Gossip Girl
Ship: Dan/Blair
Rating: PG
Spoilers: Nothing specific. Canon up to 2.16 'You've Got Yale'
Disclaimer: Say it with me now ~ me ... don't ... own. Title comes from 'A Sorta Fairytale' by Tori Amos.
Summary: He bumps into her at a party, over a year since the last time he saw her. He literally bumps into her, tumbling bodies, spilt drinks and all. He reaches out to steady her, an automatic gesture, and it is only then that he sees her face.
Authors Notes: For [info]sellthelie. The fic has absolutely nothing to do with the prompt you gave me, but since I ended up with a 3000+ word fic instead of a drabble, I figured you wouldn't mind. :O) Enjoy!

It comes as quite a large shock to Dan when a familiar figure approaches him on the porch. She sits down next to him without being invited and it occurs to Dan that this could be the first time in their lives that Blair has ever sought him out. )
