Sorry, Captain. I'm real sorry. I shoulda kept better care of her. Usually she lets me know when something's wrong. Maybe she did, I just wasn't paying attention...

It's good to know whatever sleeping sickness I have today is transcontinental.

Sir, it's not an offence to let your cat eat your bacon. Okay? And we don't arrest cats, I'm very sorry.

Maybe a hairless cat is attacking your buliding's power supply, Tommy.

They're like that, you know.

Yes, they are especially smart....

What do you mean "they cut the power"? How could they cut the power, man? They're animals!

Hang in there Allyson, you're the only one who can make the travel plans before it's too late!

IF YOU DON'T STAY AWAKE THE SPACE ROCKS OF DEATH WILL GET YOU.

There's a very pretty cardinal outside my window.

The feeling you get when your brain finally lets your heart get in its pants.

What do you mean "they cut the power"? How could they cut the power, man? They're animals!

Chewing on the wires. (Despite what Tommy said, the NOT!cats are vicious, but none too bright.)

That man was going to shank me. Over an omelette. Two eggs and a slice of government cheese. Is that what my life is worth?

Hot detective = awesome. Cops I've interacted with have been more on the Sipowicz side of things.

Oh, my. Hott detective is more like Benjamin Bratt. Seriously. Not a bad way to start the day.

ChiKat, I'd recommend you get it on with the detective.

Oh, I would not mind that one little bit. He is Teh Yum.

(eta: the fact that she's wearing an ankle monitor makes me unreasonably happy)

Me, too! The thing that doesn't make me happy was the attitude she was throwing around. It was bad enough that they held me in the courthouse until she left the building. They didn't want her to realize I am the real me.

Well not canonically, no, but this is transformative fiction.

They didn't want her to realize I am the real me.

But how can the realness of you be contained or obscured? Silly people.

I'd settle for Benjamin Bratt.

MS Project is being pissy.

No power loss out in Riverwoods, tommyrot.

When the power would go out occasionally at the old Oak Park library when I worked there, we would say, "Who wants some fried squirrel for dinner?" They loved to chew on the wires.

Get out of the building before nightfall Tommy, they mostly come at night... mostly
