Summary: The things you find hiding in your brother's closet...

Disclaimer: As much as I wish it were otherwise, Charlie and Colby do not belong to me, and neither does Numb3rs.
Notes: Just a little something that came to me when I was betaing [personal profile] paranoid_woman's latest fic. Somehow the C/C smut I had intended mutated into brotherly gen. *growls at Muse* I hope you still like it, P_W! *hugs*



Untitled Numb3rs Drabble


One of the best things about practically living with your brother, Don muses as he opens Charlie's closet door, is the ability to steal his clothes with impunity.

Normally, he'd just grab something of his Dad's, but Alan is already pissed off enough that he's missed dinner three weeks running, and... well, better just not to go there.

Charlie's closet is as messy as his office, except for a neat row of clothes hanging in one corner.

Don stares. They're all too big for Charlie, and that black t-shirt... he knows for a fact it doesn't belong to his little brother.

"Hey, Don," Charlie says, walking into the room. "D'you..." he trails off at the sight of what Don's holding.

Don looks at his brother, 'I heart Idaho' t-shirt in hand.

"Something you'd like to tell me, buddy?"

OMG I loved it!!!!! *g* *g* *g*

The slash is there, with the brotherly love!!

And you used Colby's "I ♥ Idaho" t-shirt. I'm so glad it inspired you to write this!

Loved the pacing, how you tell everything from Don's POV, his reaction to those clothes... Hahaha... This is fantastic!!! *g*

Thank you, thank you, thank you for this!!!! *loves* *g*

By the way, just so you know that we're connected, I posted a Travis Tritt video in the last part of my fic. It's *very* interesting that besides talking about a lot of the stuff I've written about, it says, "Well, I might go get me a new tattoo," when you said you were planning to write about tattooed!Colby!" :D

Hahaha. The heart simbol is ALT + 3, just in case you were wondering.

Don's reaction is exactly "WTF?" His expression is priceless...

And it's such an honor that you put that t-shirt into your Colby canon, LOL. :D

I totally loved the drabble. Thank you so much for it, again!

XD So cuuuute. The brothers should totally switch clothes one episode. I borrow from my sister's closet all the time. Didn't get the I <3 Idaho comment till I read [personal profile] paranoid_woman's reply though...I don't remember, did Colby wear that in an episode?

Wow, this is definitely my number one favorite of your fics. I could not stop grinning! Phenomenal, once again love being inside their heads, 'specially since you portray them so well.

gosh I kinda have a run through your funny fics today. that was really amusing. really sibling-like (hope you know what I mean) and colby's stuff hanging neatly in a corner of charlie's messy closet is just true. kinda stereotype.. the messy professor and the tidy soldier :)
and the i <3 idaho shirt was the highlight... :)
