DRABBLE: Advice Well-Received (Michael&Terry)

[captainpookey.livejournal.com]

Title: Advice Well-Received
Prompt: "Not the buttons!"
Characters: Michael & Terry (platonic)
Rating: PG-13, some language
Word Count: 1,000 (Promise they won't always be this long!)
Prompt Table: Say what?
Summary: Michael loves to be right—almost as much as he loves to torture Terry.
Author's Notes: Expect some degree of cracky-humor in this particular installment. I wanted to show an absurd moment between the friends, and this about tops what I could think of. I feel like around one's friends, even the most put-together or cynical of people can become utter crackpots. (At least every once in a while.)

A few frightened second-years were observing attentively from a safe distance, but anyone who had shared a Common Room with Michael, Terry and Anthony for longer than a year seemed to only hold a mild, passing interest in their current engagement.
