Chapter Six of “I’ve Traveled All this Way for Something” is up at AO3.
Chapter Six: Learning As You Go "You wanna try this?"
Buster's been watching them play for about an hour and while he thinks he's got the general idea, he knows he's nowhere near as good as they are. "I'd just slow you down, Sir."
"I give it another week or so of him watching us play," Lincecum says. "Then he'll be kicking our asses."
"Politely," Hunter says.
"And very respectfully, Sir."
He's not here to be funny but it's still nice to be able to joke and have them laugh. "Why don't you get your respectful ass over here," Lincecum says.
"What the fuck? You asshole, I'm ahead by four runs, so, what, all of a sudden you've got the urge to play with him?"
"Dude," Lincecum says as Buster kneels in front of him. "It's not fucking real time. The game's not going anywhere."
"Yeah, well, neither is Buster."
"Oh he's going somewhere all right," Lincecum says. "Over my lap."
