Apocalypse challenge by mercuriosity

Just a silly little thing that popped into my head while pondering this challenge. 100 words.


Signs

"He's been like that all morning," Welsh said. Fraser was sitting in Ray's chair, boots propped up on the desk. And he was--whittling?

"And you say he doesn't seem interested in maintaining the right or getting his man?" Ray pressed.

"His precise words, when confronted with the notion that there were dangerous criminals to be caught, were: 'I really couldn't give a damn.'"

Ray sank slowly into a chair. "I guess that explains the rain of fish on the way in," he said; and Ray Vecchio put his head in his hands and waited for the world to end.

Nice. This definitely passed the laugh-out-loud test. Little, sneaky, snarky and just amusing. Also, imagining Fraser saying that? HOT.

Great drabble!

It really is hot on the rare occasions that Fraser actually swears, isn't it? Mmm.

Thank you very much!

I was originally going to start with Ray complaining about fish-stains on his car... Poor Ray, indeed. *g*

Thank you!

I'm pretty sure Fraser not giving a damn is a sign the end is nigh.

Thanks for reading!

Bwahaha.

You're a mischievous one. I love this.

In an evil world (about to end) I can just imagine it too.

Mwahahaha! Perfect.
