Trooper Station: Tuesday

There were no invasions, no strange occurrences and the weather was normal for this time of year.

Which meant there was time to get the paperwork out of the way and drink lots of coffee.

Gibbs was completely happy to do both.

[Yep. Open.]

Which is what made him a damn fine copper.

That and it saved Vimes from having to do a lot of that paperwork.

"Gibbs."

"Sheriff," Gibbs replied in turn, barely looking up from his paperwork. "What's the good word?"

"Aside from a new hire, a quiet few weeks." Last week in particular. It had been eerie, really.

"So I missed nothing last week while I was off?" Gibbs asked as he dumped another stack of paperwork into his out basket. "Good to know. New girl seems good."

"Sergeant von Uberwald is adjusting well enough," Vimes said, neither here nor there on the rest.

Werewolves. He missed when the watch was good--decent--no... human. There we go.

"You two have a history?" Gibbs asked finally looking up at Vimes. "She seems to have known you from someplace."

"Can't say I ever met her before here." Her on the other hand...

[identity profile] famous-gut.livejournal.com 2010-03-03 05:02 am (UTC)(link)
Gibbs raised an eyebrow at that. "Huh. Could have sworn she mentioned that you two worked together in one form or another."

[identity profile] solesofmyfeet.livejournal.com 2010-03-03 05:05 am (UTC)(link)
"We did."

Hey, he never said it made sense.

"According to her."

"Ah."

It might have been a sign that Gibbs had been here too long when he could understand parallel dimensions with alternate timelines.

Then again Tony and Ziva being on the island helped along with that.

"Well at least you might have something to look forward to seeing down the road."

"More like wondering if I was out of my mind in some odd place." Because clearly he'd never hire a werewolf. Or a vampire. Or a Troll. Or a Dwarf.

Gibbs got a good chuckle out of that. "I've wondered that myself with some of my team members on my old job."

"And just why did you take them on then?"

"Well sometimes you may not like the means," Gibbs said looking up at Vimes, "But you can't argue with results."

He dumped another set of paperwork into the out basket.

"And if they got out of line I usually just smacked them into shape."

"I have the feeling a rolled up newspaper might work well with this..." Oh, it was in bad taste, but that was how coppers functioned with the things that made them uncomfortable.
