beautiful distraction

WHO: Molly Hooper & you.
WHERE: Rossum Labs, the clinic, some cafe, and probably on her way home from work at ass o'clock in the morning. Choose something!
WHEN: 20 September, all day and into the wee hours of the morning.
WARNINGS: N/A.
SUMMARY: Derping around like the derp she is.
FORMAT: Quick, for I am lazy and in class. But feel free to change!

[Since Boyd had left, things at work had been crazy. People were rushing around, trying to figure out what to do. Things at the clinic had been better, though. Since there hadn't been any major catastrophes in the City for at least a week, it had mostly been regular clinic duty when she stopped in. And even as customary as it was, she preferred it that way--Molly was a creature of habit, and didn't take well to interruptions of routine.

Places like the cafe close to the clinic that she almost always ate at were a comfort. The streetlight-lit and relatively safe way she took back to the flat at night were equally as comforting. Sherlock and John leaving had been a blow, but she needed to keep her chin up. People came back, and left just as often. So as long as she stayed positive, everything would be alright. Probably.]

[ He turns to face her properly so they aren't having a conversation sideways, but makes no move to come closer or get in her space. There isn't a threatening bone in his body. ]

There's a relief. I never could get the hang of plain coffee. Now a mocha frappucino, that's more my style. You can't go wrong with chocolate.

Life's too short for bitter drinks. And six AM is way too early not to have something delicious.

Ain't that the truth. But you can't get away from working odd hours, sometimes.

[ Just then they call his name, and his drink is ready. ]

Hold that thought. [ He retrieves it and quickly returns. ]

I worked in a forensics lab back home. Long nights and always on call. These days I'm just looking for work. [ And trying not to go broke. ]

For real? I do just about all of the chemical work, specialize in trace evidence. [ He's excited now, but also a little hesitant - is there really any chance that he could get the same job here? Probably not, but he has to ask. ]

How hard is it to get certified in this area?

That's the heavy stuff. I had a hard enough time getting through advanced chemistry, med school is just... wow. [ He loves everyone normally, but being in the same field wins her major brownie points. ]

Man, I'll have to get that ball rolling fast. [ And when he says fast he means it. ] I must be a glutton for punishment, but I miss those long hours.

You can't help what you love, even if it makes things harder.

[ He laughs. He can see how that might be scary, if she's working as coroner. ]

A smile is always a good thing, but maybe not when you're giving someone bad news.

Then I don't think you have anything to worry about.

[ It's easier to check than to watch her crash and burn. ]

Wally West. [ He shakes her hand, a totally unapologetic smile on his face. ]

I guess we got a little carried away.

Eh, it happens. At least you're excited about your work. [ That's a good thing! ]

Find a new one, I hope.
