New Greenlea Tale: The Rookie

[mariez]

I think it will pass in its own time, Marie, I really do.

A flicker of bright news:  after setting up and editing 15 chapters of Looking for Answers, yesterday saw a record 400 hits on the tcreader website for the two books.  Yee haw!  I am hoping that we may see some new readers pop up in the Greenlea Tales main thread as a result.

Thanks, Louise.  You're right, of course.  I know it will pass.  "..in its own time" is the perfect way to put that.

Yee haw is right!  Congratulations!

Marie

Loved it! It was great watching the rhythm of that phone conversation - both of them "scoring points."  Yep, Paula should have called Ellery and asked for a meeting between the three of them.  And how funny was this:

“So yer sayin this wasn’t a personal call? You really did want ta get this deal worked out?”

Jeremy is sweet - but he needs to learn that sometimes a little bit of guile can be useful.  LOL!  Because he just set himself up for my favorite part:

Not every woman in this town is lying in wait to capture you and rescue you from an evil life of homosexuality, regardless of what your Chief Deputy may fill your head with.”

“He don’t.”

"He don.'t"  Ha!  She almost quoted Ellery word-for-word!  But even though Jeremy can sometimes be guileless, he's very smart.  He has Ellery pegged perfectly.  And he also realizes that his Chief Deputy Legs and the A.D.A. are more alike than either of them know (or would probably care to admit). 

First-rate dialogue, as usual, Louise.  Okay, now for Round 2! 

Thanks!

Yes, Marie, fortunately for us and unfortunately for all of them, there WILL be a Round 2 before they get a plea agreement with the sulky little weasel, Leon Sebastian.

Aww, poor Jeremy.  Nothing worse than a head "full a legal shit"  I feel his pain.  LOL!   And poor Nick, too.  He's a smart cookie, our Nicky, and he can read his man like a book.

Well, now I really want to smack some sense into both Ellery and Paula.  The hell with the plea agreement and Amos Marigold - if their b.s. is getting in the way of our baby boys getting some nookie, then this is really serious! LOL!

“Good. I meant it ta be ambiguous so you’ll think about it.”

I love listening to these two. 

Thanks, Louise!

Chapter 41

Well the rookie is catching crap from all over the place isn't he? Poor Jeremy-his man is feeling a little jealous & neglected & his boss & the ADA have him caught in the middle of their power struggle. He needs to step back, take a deep breath & really take a stand both personally & professionally or he's gonna end up with no man & Ellery's blood pressure problems himself.

I think Nicky just needs some reassuring & loving & then they need to sit down & talk about the reality of being an police officer's partner. It's not a 9-5 job & Jeremy will be bringing the stresses of the job home with him sometimes. (I personally think that Nick just needs to learn that when Jeremy has had a "bad" day at the office, he needs to meet him at the front door with those non-police issue restraints & get his focus back on what's really important!  )

As far as Paula & Ellery go, well I can't wait for that meeting, but that needs to be where Jeremy makes an impression on those two. (I also thinks Jeremy needs to touch base with his buddy Colson soon, that always makes him feel better)

Geez-I have an awful lot to say about things today, don't I? Too much damn coffee I guess....anyway nice look at Jeremy & Nick adjusting to their life together...looking forward to more!
