5 Howls: Homesick

Somebody told me to give it a week or two and then I'd really be homesick. Boy, were they right.

I miss working at my garage and I miss my single-wide and I miss Medea - damn I miss my cat.

I even miss Samuel and Adam getting at each other and that shows sheer desperation.

Anyone want to distract a girl? Tell me a good place to go or something I should see or visit? Watch a movie with me?

Wait, wait, what do you mean, Kyle?

I... look... if it means that much to you I'll tell him to forget it. I can... keep filling in at Lux till I find a real job.

I pretty much have nothing but time.

It's dangerous, Mercy. I almost died following Ianto down once.

I don't want you to give up anything you really want to do, but I do want you to understand what you're getting into. Who is this Jamie person and what, exactly, does he want you to do?

They do investigation work - maybe in the office, maybe in the field. He seems like a nice enough guy, very experienced in the field. But, you know I don't know him any better than I know anyone else here.

If he's sending you Underground, it's because he wants to see how you do in the field.

I don't know him, myself. I don't know if anyone I do know is more familiar.

Like I said. I'll tell him to forget it if you want me to.

You don't need to worry about me, too.

Mercy. If I were Adam or Samuel absolutely forbidding you to take this job you would be doing it to spite me.

I said I learned my lesson, and I have. I just want you to be careful, whatever you do.

And I'll worry regardless.

See, now if you'd just say, 'Mercy, you may NOT take that job, I absolutely forbid it!' I wouldn't think twice.

Tell me you worry, but I can do what I want and I'm lost.

Look, I'll be very careful and I'll learn more about what he'd expect of me and go from there, okay?

Even if I'm working at Lux?

That's why I'm the lawyer who makes the big bucks. Confusing passive aggressive language.

Okay. And I'll conduct my own investigations into the actual...company, I suppose?

Even if you were pouring coffee at the local Starbucks.

It's called x-factor investigations.

Aw... Kyle... you're sweet.

I am selfishly invested in your welfare.

If Robin tries to get fresh with you tonight, tell him I will cut off his tab and then his favorite body part.

[identity profile] coyote-walking.livejournal.com 2009-06-30 01:34 am (UTC)(link)
I don't think he will, but I'll be sure to tell him if he does.

[identity profile] justashow.livejournal.com 2009-06-30 04:32 am (UTC)(link)
I don't think he will either. If only because he knows I mean it about the tab.

He's been surprisingly good about sticking within my limits.

Well Niko's out of the hospital now, so he's more within glaring limits.

You should meet Niko when you get the chance.

[identity profile] coyote-walking.livejournal.com 2009-06-30 04:42 am (UTC)(link)
I'd like that. He's someone you think highly of, so...

[identity profile] justashow.livejournal.com 2009-06-30 04:52 am (UTC)(link)
Very highly. I trust Niko almost as much as I trust Jack and Ianto.

[identity profile] coyote-walking.livejournal.com 2009-06-30 01:10 pm (UTC)(link)
Wow. Then I'd definitely like to meet him.
