Xover fic: The FOP Job (Gen, PG for a little language)

Dec 20, 2011 22:33

I was supposed to be working. Failing that, I should have been writing fandom_stocking fic. And yet, here we are...

Title: The FOP Job
Summary: Two cops meet in a bar.
Notes: There I was, watching "The Boys' Night Out Job"...

( Jim Gordon came into the Metropolis bar and looked around. )

leverage, dc fic

I love you.

Jim nearly snorted beer through his nose. "Are you kidding? 'Gordon. Meet me at the top of the First Bank of Gotham with a pair of handcuffs, a brick, and a live mouse.' That was my favorite."

ROTFLMAO!

::grin:: I can't remember if I've ever posted my story proving Mara's Law of Implied Mayhem but I really should try and find it. Because there's nothing I love more than implied mayhem :)

Glad you enjoyed it :)

Heh. It's also a law of comedy. You come up with a string of weird, and no story you wrote would actually live up to the promise.

Yup, that's the law :) I wrote a story that proves it perfectly, based on a real experience of mine. Must find that thing...

::grin:: I had to. I was trying to work and they wouldn't shut up. It was the only way I was going to get anything done :D

That was delightful! I love "similar characters comparing notes in a bar" fics, and this one was utterly perfect!

marag December 21 2011, 14:45:01 UTC

Thank you! I know I've written at least one other in this genre because I love it too :D

Two favorite lines:

"These guys, I swear, they could find trouble standing still in the middle of fucking Disneyland" (because they totally could, although keeping Hardison and Parker standing still in the middle of Disneyland would be an issue)

and

"I usually get 'Be at the back door of Roberman's Jewelers at precisely 2:53 am. Bring at least five troopers.' No idea who I'm arresting or what for. Although to be fair, they usually try to make it clear once I'm on the scene."

Which is not to say I didn't adore all the POV from Jim about dealing with The Bat, but no one's done a lot about Bonnanno, and so I'm loving that bestest. And as I am very fond of the the "two whatevers walk into a bar" format (and have perpetrated it myself), all I have to say is, "Squeeee!!!!!!".
