early summer...
Apr. 19th, 2009 10:20 amI'd like to know who got our spring. >_< We are due another two months before summer, but somehow it's already here. Damn. Much as I like being employed, I really am glad that this job is ending, before I spontaneously combust from being in the sun in temps over 90. Not funny, nature. >_>
So, more BFB. ^____^
Q looked up from the parchment in his hand, as the flames of the communication fire flickered around him. “Excellent work, Heero! I detest these intersection cases, but we seem to be coming across them as everyone becomes more accustomed to each other.” He sighed and shook his head. “This is one of those moments when I miss the old times.” I guess I looked confused. He smirked at me and said dryly, “In the old days, we would have just hauled Miles out and chopped off his head. Problem solved.” He glanced down at the parchment again briefly, while I blinked. “Ah, well. Times change.”
Heero rumbled noncommittally.
“What do we do now?” I asked. “Heero had some listings yesterday, but none of them were ideal. Can he stay here until we find a place for him to live?” I asked hopefully.
Q thought for a minute. “I don’t want to simply turn him out, but we really cannot have a vampire in the Castle. He has until next Sunday. That means that you have a week to find him a home – permanent or temporary.”
“But none of Heero’s listings were suitable…”
Q raised one eyebrow. “That is because Heero is not in charge of crypts for dispossessed vampires; you are.”
“Me?!” I almost fell off my chair. “Me?!” I squawked again. “But I don’t know anything about house-hunting!”
Q smirked at me. “You will learn, Banshee. You will learn. Ctik is your project for the immediate future.” The image in the fire began to fade. “Have fun.”
“But Q…!” Too late; he was gone and the flames had returned to normal. I turned to my Wyvern. “Heero! What the fuck?!”
“Think of it as your performance evaluation,” he grinned.
Great. Just fucking wonderful.

Q is really clever at matching the assignment to the staff. :-D
