FIC Draft: Because Seriously, WTF Muses?!!!!
See, I knew going into this fandom that I was going to bring in Uncle Morrie and Club Denial eventually. And make the obligatory Moonlight reference, because damn it, Alex O'Loughlin looks too fucking good as Mick St. John, even though the show badly needed to shed its Forever Knight references and it was just too damn bad it got canceled when it finally found its footing.
(So, for the benefit of the watching audience and for whoever's used to my madness, you guys know that "Uncle Morrie" is the Original Dark Lord of the Lord of the Rings Universe - Sauron's former boss - retired Evil BAMF.![[livejournal.com profile]](https://www.dreamwidth.org/img/external/lj-userinfo.gif)
murasaki99 was kind enough to lend him over when she wrote the fabulous fic "Blue Notes." Club Denial pretty much has EVERY DAMN FANDOM OF MINE in it so you can imagine the chaos that ensues when you bring together Rangers, a Navy SEAL, a long-suffering Jersey detective, hobbits, Dark Lords of the Sith, vampires, Shinigami and a Meiji-era swordsman, right?)
So here I am staring at yet another CROSSOVER BUNNY FROM HELL and my Muses, irritating bastards that they are, have sprung this New Thing on me.
I mean, really, Steve is the REINCARNATION of WHICH character from the Lord of the Rings?! THE FUCK?!! SRSLY?!!!
And my Potential Villain is THIS PERSON from the Silmarillion?!!!
Oh sweet Ceiling Cat help us.
Danny Williams is the father of a little girl, the son closest to his mother, long-suffering big brother to several sisters and was, however briefly, married to a woman.
He doesn’t claim to be an expert on women – God knew that was just asking for trouble. But he did pride himself and his detective skills on knowing when something was up with the womenfolk in his life. It was a survival skill, one that he really needed to teach to Steve, who was, God bless him, again making Sheer Obliviousness into an art form.
Of course, Danny first picks up the warning signs from Grace. He’d like to blame Steve for Grace loving scary stories, but the truth is, his little girl loves the spooky stories her grandfather told her and was only too pleased to find out that Steve was much the same and had his own stories to share. Of course, Danny can point to Rachel’s love of campy supernatural TV shows and movies as well.
Danny is still firmly in denial over his little girl’s baby crush on that Winchester guy.
“Vampires are not supposed to be sparkly,” Grace says severely, while deep in discussion on the subject with Kono and the newbie, Spooky.
It was the end of the day and Grace was again at the station on one of their Paperwork Days. Danny’s not sure how Rachel manages to figure when they all had “Paperwork Days” but he’s happy to have his baby girl with him whenever possible. Grace also loved doing her homework there and Danny was infinitely grateful that Steve was a very patient teacher.
Danny can see them outside the window of his office and stifles a chuckle. Spooky, the new girl, is sitting next to Grace. With her black hair in those ridiculous-looking twin buns, which, combined with her height and slight build, made her look even younger than Kono, Spooky looks just like another little girl instead of the adult she actually is. Add a few sleeping bags, some popcorn and candy and it was going to be a regular slumber party out there.
“Twilight should only be read by any girl who retains enough common sense to not look for creepy, stalker-y, sparkly Edward Cullens of their very own?” Spooky offers sheepishly. “You gotta admit, Twilight is sweet…. you just have to make sure you regulate your daily dose of sugary reading!”
Danny snorts. He really shouldn’t be listening – he’s trying to get his paperwork done. But he can’t help but overhear the conversation and give silent thanks to God and all His Saints for Gracie evidently inheriting the common sense from the Williams’ side of the family.
“Edward Cullen is not cute,” Grace opines. “He looks like a Neanderthal! A sparkly one!”
Kono and Spooky giggle. Danny himself is trying not to laugh.
“A sparkly Neanderthal – nice one, Gracie-girl!” Kono cheers. Danny can see her and Grace exchanging high-fives.
“Okay, so who gets your vote for cool, non-sparkly, good-looking vampire, Kono?” Spooky asks.
“Mick St. John,” Kono answers promptly.
“Moonlight!” Spooky squeals in evident recognition. Danny is going to have to check his eardrums soon. He’s only thankful that Steve, lucky bastard, is again out on a food run for the rest of the team. Chin, of course, has had enough sense to barricade himself in his own office and had a set of earphones with him when he did. The man is probably zoned out to music at this point, happily content in his little universe of Zen.
“Mommy loves that show too!” Grace volunteers. Danny snorts again. That explains everything.
“It was too bad it got canceled after one season,” Kono says wistfully. “But Mick gets my vote. I mean, just look at him.” Evidently, Kono is using the office computer to browse for pictures of whoever this Mick guy is online. Not that Danny’s going to say anything about that – he, Chin and Steve are known to indulge in a few games of HALO and Call of Duty.
Spooky starts laughing. “Oh. My. God. Kono, Grace… he looks like….”
This from Kono, who has burst into laughter as well. “No way!”
“He does too! Mick’s just got the emo hair and the whole no-tan thing going on but look at him!”
“Ohmigod, you’re right…”
Grace giggles. “Now we know what we’re going to ask Uncle Steve to dress up as on Halloween!”
Uh-oh. This did not sound good. Danny should really do what all good partners would be doing at this point – stride outside, join the conversation and nip his baby girl’s newest plan of mischief in the bud. Then again, Danny Williams is also a sane, sensible man, who’s at least somewhat wise in the ways of women.
The choice is easy to make, right?
***
Steve is terribly cute when he’s bewildered.
He adores Grace too much to give her a Death Glare but he’s not above using it on Kono, who’s already immune or Spooky, who’s doing a poor job of looking suitably intimidated.
“I’m going as a what for Halloween?”
“Not a what, but a who, Uncle Steve,” Grace corrects him primly. “You can go as Mick St. John. He’s a vampire and he looks an awful lot like you!”
Steve sputters. “I am not going to play some sparkly emo vampire from Twilight!”
“It’s Moonlight!” All three girls chorus.
“And the vampires in Moonlight don’t sparkle!” Grace pipes up.
“Still emo, though,” Kono offers helpfully.
“The emo thing works for Mick anyway,” Spooky adds. “So cute….”
Spooky, Kono and Grace all sigh dreamily.
Steve sends a desperate look at Chin’s way but the older man holds his hands up. “Sorry, brah, I’m out of this.”
And then, Steve sends Danny a Look that eloquently asks: What the hell were you doing while this was going down?
Danny tries not to let the guilt show. “Babe, they ganged up on me. I was hog-tied, thrown to the ground, outnumbered, overpowered…”
“In other words, you caved like a puss –“
“Language!” All three girls chorus yet again.
“What they said,” Danny tells him helpfully.
Swearing in some language Danny’s not too familiar with until Spooky snickers, “Really, Bossman, you know Tagalog too?” Steve throws up his hands in surrender and flees for the safety of his office.
Of course, Danny’s not going to admit that he ended up thinking that Steve would make a great Mick St. John for Halloween too…
So what do you think, LJ? Should I just keep on going with the crazy?

I think Steve and Danny need to sit down and watch some episodes of Moonlight and really get to know who Mick actually is--this is a wonderful beginning :)
