Title: When Damsels Grow up
Fandom: FAKE
Character: Carol
Rating: PG (references to violence)
Timeline: After Like, Like, Love.
Words: 100. Written for day 8 of halfamoon 2009.



There's no Ryo to materialize miraculously three stories below this time. Even if he was here, she's now fifteen years older and thirty pounds heavier -- she can no longer fling herself out of windows and expect to be caught. But the man rushing at her is just as vicious and deranged as the one who abducted her back in New York --

and, oh, what a difference it makes, being older and larger and stronger. This time, she's a trained and experienced operative. This time, she has a gun. This time, when Dee picks up his cell phone, he congratulates her.

Belatedly catching up on your FAKE ficlets--very cool to see Carol as a cop, and Dee congratulating her like a proud dad or big brother. ^_^

Dee really is a sweetie at heart - I love the episode where Carol slugs him because he's patting her ass, and his reaction is "Good one!" ;-)
