Fics like Me And You

""Well," he starts, pulling himself tiredly into a sitting position, tugging the blanket more securely over his slim shoulders. "of course. Of course they're coming. It's Christmas. Why wouldn't they?" "I got them presents," Rusty adds, more quietly, as if that were an obvious guarantee that they'd come. For material goods, if nothing else. Brock sighs as he looks down at him. There's something very pathetic about this whole display — the glasses askew on his nose, the companion alcohol, the unspoken yet painfully obvious hope — yet at the same time, it's oddly compelling. (It's not the first time he's ascribed those words to Doc's antics.) Sitting down next to him, he grabs the remote and checks the TV guide. A Christmas Carol. Figures." It's a smaller Christmas without the boys, but it'll do, if Dr. Venture can find it in himself to admit that they aren't coming home. Written for the Venture Bros Secret Santa 2016.
