No Parachute (for nursebadass)

Title: No Parachute
Author: mrsfjl66
Pairing: Burke/Cristina, mentions of canon couples up to S3.
Rating: PG-13/17 for language
Author's Note: This is a roadtrip/Cristina gets her man story for nursebadass who is in fact, every bit as badass as she purports to be. Many thanks to mammothluv and waltzmatildah for cheerleading, betaing and fact finding.

It’s comforting that Meredith doesn’t even pause. She just shoves jeans into her duffel. 'Where are we going?' )

now ... i am the pig., mrsfuckingwaltzmammoth, fic: grey's loose ends

Wow! Thank you for saying such sweet things!! I miss the fab five all the time so I guess it's only fair I pass the craving on?

Yeah, I've always thought Burke was misreading her on what she wanted. And Owen willfully misreads. But that is another rant altogether.

Thanks for the love!

Commenting as I read:

  • Oh, it is so Meredith to make sandwiches. And poor Cristina. Izzie is sitting shotgun.
  • OMGOMGOMGOMGOMG! MY HOUSE IS LIKE, A MILE SOUTH OF I-70 in Blue Springs, MO. NOT KIDDING. I RUN UNDER AN I-70 OVERPASS WHEN I TRAIN FOR MY RACES. I DRIVE ON I-70 TO GET TO WORK. I GREW UP ON I-70. OMGOMGOMG. I LOVE I-70.
  • Burke is a 12 year old girls with dreams. That is so Burke in a nutshell.
  • Iowa. I love that you called it his home planet. But jsyk, Iowa does not get I-70. But I'll forgive you for that one. It runs through Colorado, Kansas, and Missouri. And a few other states. But that's the midwest.
  • OH MY GOD. THEY WERE IN MISSOURI. WE WILL PRETEND THEY WERE IN GRANDVIEW BECAUSE IT'S LIKE FIFTEEN MILES AWAY FROM MY HOUSE AND THERE ARE GIANT TRUCK STOPS WITH GIANT STUPID TRUCK STOP SOUVENIERS.

I had a map damn it. My map told me there was Iowa, but Alas!

I'm so glad you liked! I really liked the idea of Cristina just saying nope, this is not how it goes. And throwing everybody into a car was fun too. Also, I knew you'd want porn. And I wanted so badly to make your every dream come true! But I always get all awk and shy when I'm in the porn writing seat. Which makes no sense I know!

I hope you had a wonderful holiday! I loved writing for you and you writing for me!

Oh, DUDE. This is so much more awesome than I can ever think of being. I always love your dialogue and how you can get in their heads so perfectly and capture these amazing behind the scenes moments. LOVE it. Love you!

My favorite line:

When Meredith tries to buy a “Missouri Loves Company” t-shirt, Izzie takes it from her hand and puts it back on the rack. “Far too literal for you,” she says.
