tanaquificTwo drabbles - one of which was written a long time ago, and one this evening. Both are part of Awesome!Jakeverse, the shared post-season 2 verse being written by Scribbler (scribblesinink) and Tanaqui (tanaquific).
Every bridal shower needs a theme, and Heather’s is no exception. (Set Fall 2009)
Living it up, living it down
When she arrived at Bailey's, Heather was too busy greeting old schoolfriends from New Bern to notice at first. It wasn't until she was waved into a seat in one of the booths that she saw the bowls of candy were filled with multicolored bugs, and that the letters on the banners hung around the walls were held up by marching ants.
"You themed my bridal shower with ants?" she accused Mary.
"Not just any old ants." Emily kissed Heather's cheek as she handed over her gift. She pointed to the radiation warning signs around the room. "Giant irradiated ants."
oOo
Bill, Jimmy and some of the former Rangers have a proposition for Jake. (Set Summer 2018)
Limits
Jake laughed, and went on checking over the new Cessna. Well, new to Ant Aviation.
"So, what do you say?" Behind Bill, Jimmy and several guys who, a dozen years ago, had been Rangers nodded at him encouragingly.
Jake shook his head. "Go ask Eric."
"We're asking you," Jimmy put in. "Mayor Andersen's standing down, and we thought... the town needs you."
Jake snorted. "The town needs someone who doesn't hate paperwork and won't take a swing at journalists who annoy him."
"But..."
"No." Jake grimaced. "Not a chance in hell I'm going home and telling Heather I said yes."
