VigBean: A Close Shave

[fandomcorner]

Title: A Close Shave
Pairing: VigBean
Summary: The day before the History of Violence party in Toronto. Inspired by this pic
Dedications: For jacqui_hw who gave me the idea


The ringing of the telephone brought Viggo out of one of his all too frequent brooding sessions, although he wouldn't refer to it as such. No, he wasn't brooding, he was thinking, about Sean and how much he missed him. Not brooding.

He stared at the telephone for a moment, almost as though he was surprised to find the rather noisy item in his apartment, and then he leaned over to answer it.

"Hello?"

"You took your time. Not disturbing you am I?"

There was a mischivious hint to Sean's voice which made Viggo smile.

"Not doing anything you couldn't join in if you were here. How are you Sean?"

"Good," Sean replied, pretending he couldn't hear the desire in Viggo's voice. "I've got a surprise for you."

"Really?"

"Really. Guess who managed to blag a ticket to Cronenberg's party."

Viggo paused for a moment and grinned. "Orlando? Great, I haven't seen him in months!"

"Funny Vig. Very funny. Listen, do you still have that stupid 'tache?"

Viggo reached up and stroked his face. He'd shaved off the moustache he'd grown for Alatriste but now History of Violence was done filming he'd started to grow it back again.

"It's not stupid, Sean."

"It makes you look like a porn star, Vig. Normally I wouldn't complain but I'm still filming and I can't show up the day after the party with stubble burn all over my face."

Viggo chuckled. "You're very sure of yourself, Bean. What makes you think you're going to see any action at the party?"

"Guess we'll find out tomorrow. See you later."

Sean hung up before Viggo could respond.

Viggo stared at the phone for a few moment, half expecting Sean to suddenly appear on the line again. When it started beeping at him he hung up, sat on the bed for a moment and then hung up the phone. In one fluid motion he hopped onto his feet and padded into the bathroom, picking up the razor which hadn't been used for a while and moving over to stand in front of the mirror

"I can always grow it back later."

Aww poor Viggo, I liked the moustache, i think i was one of only about 5 Viggo fans who did, LOL. It did make him look like a 1970's porn star but that was the main reason I liked it (I am pervy like that).

[fandomcorner.livejournal.com]

Hehe! I found the moustache to be quite comedy but he definitely looks better without it

[teh-farmer.livejournal.com]

I totally understand Sean!!! This mustache was really terrible!

He looked like a homeless pornstar-alcoholic...

Great fic though! ;)

[fandomcorner.livejournal.com]

Hehe. Thanks. I wrote it during my lunch break so it's not the best fic in the world

[teh-farmer.livejournal.com]

Well, perhaps not, but very entertaining!

[mooms.livejournal.com]

I'm with Sean on this one. I grew to love it, because of the person it was attached to, but prefer him without it. I like this little story.

[fandomcorner.livejournal.com]

Thanks :)

I must be the only person around who hasn't seen (or at least doesn't remember having seen) Viggo with a mustache.

But cute story none the less. ^_^

[fandomcorner.livejournal.com]

You haven't seen the porn tache of doom? Well, allow me to rectify that

[jedipirate.livejournal.com]

OMG!!! =O That is hilarious!! XD

I don't just picture a porn star from the '70s... I picture a sleazy French porn star from the '70s. XD

[eenoogje.livejournal.com]

Oh, you missed out on that one. We even had a fan club for it stache_fan_club

[jedipirate.livejournal.com]

oooh... now in the actual movie pictures, I'm liking the stache. *nods* It looks good with the costume to go with it.

[govi20.livejournal.com]

It's a very nice story, I enjoyed it very much. And I couldn't agree more with Sean.Viggo.....looks so much better without that moustache!

[fandomcorner.livejournal.com]

Yup, I think most people feel that way. LOL

[rotpunkt.livejournal.com]

I bet Viggo has lots of these "brooding sessions" - hope for him he also has such a good reason for a shave... liked it that Sean was so demanding and sure of himself.

[fandomcorner.livejournal.com]

Hehe. I bet Sean is just like that when he knows what he wants. LOL

[brigantine.livejournal.com]

Heh heh heh... hurrah for Bean! Silly mustache. Kind of cute in its way, though. ;D

[fandomcorner.livejournal.com]

I'm sure deep down Sean likes it really

[moldava.livejournal.com]

Oh lol! So glad to see that I'm not the only one who's been thinking that with that moustache Viggo looks like a 70's porn star. I've been pointing and screaming "John Holmes!!!!!" from the time the first pic appeared *giggles*

Loved this, and I love how ready Vigog is to give up that moustache for a.. ehm.. good cause ;)

[fandomcorner.livejournal.com]

A very good cause. LOL

[danaid-luv.livejournal.com]

It normally isn't my bag, but I've got to hand it to you--the few snippets I've read of yours leads me to believe you're really quite good. This story has a...quiet, mature feel about it?

[fandomcorner.livejournal.com]

I didn't really think about it to be honest. I wrote it rather hurriedly during my lunch break

Hello

[faramirgirl.livejournal.com]

Awwww things you do for love. Beautiful just loved it. And it was a beautiful picture of the two.

Re: Hello

[fandomcorner.livejournal.com]

Yeah, the pic was very inspiring :)

LOL

[jojos-s-v.livejournal.com]

True- it can always grow back. Nice little fic.

Re: LOL

[fandomcorner.livejournal.com]

Thanks :)

[feelforfaith.livejournal.com]

No, no, no. No mustache--it was awful. And this: I can't show up the day after the party with stubble burn all over my face--this is an even better argument. That was fun :D

[fandomcorner.livejournal.com]

Hehe. Thanks :)

[sammy-stevenson.livejournal.com]

Teehee, you tell him Beanie! :-)

Yeah, not very fond of the 'tache... But then there's upsides to someone looking like a french porn star. *has disturbing images of naked Viggo with his dodgy 'tache*

[fandomcorner.livejournal.com]

LOL! I'm sure even the tache looks good when he's naked
