Two of Us

( You and I have memories )

( it took me years to write won't you take a look )

All of this downtime has finally been good for something (other than tossing darts at the Chief's picture). It's amazing what you can find out from watching the news these days.

And if it looks like a duck, walks like a duck and sounds like a duck, then it's not gonna turn out to be a chicken.

Hopefully.

I should probably have let little brother handle this - he's much better at being diplomatic than I am. He'll bloody well kill me once he finds out what I've done

And sometimes, the direct approach is called for.

Hello, Uncle.

I don't know what purpose that blackout served, but at least it stopped my brother from whining that he wasn't getting to do anything useful.

We spent most of the day assigned to various gun shops, making sure no, ah, merchandise was looted. Most people we apprehended were just scared - kept talking about needing protection against the 'voices in the dark' - but for some, their purpose was much more sinister.

On the plus side, we did manage to personally apprehend a small-time arms dealer who the office has been trying to nab for years. Apparently, they thought this was a good time to bypass the intermediary (and the exorbitant fees, no doubt), and stock up on their supplies.
That arrest alone was enough to put us in the Chief's good books for a while - provided big brother doesn't insult him again, that is.

He probably had a little too much fun catching suspects - but seeing as I haven't seen him this happy since Camelot in weeks, I'm not complaining.

People are calling it a 'freak accident', but honestly, the sun went out. You cannot tell me that is a natural phenomenon.

And if it is, New York is stranger than I first thought.

Bored.

boredboredbored and bloody bored. I swear our supervisor has it in for me - desk duty again? For the...oh, I don't know how many times this week. Little brother says I should learn to control my temper, but I can't help it if the Chief is an insensitive so-and-so. And I do have more law enforcement experience than him - just can't connect it to this name, is all.

Maybe next time I will let him pick the job. Perhaps something other than law enforcement, like he keeps hinting. And working at the DA's office can't be all that bad, right?
