Fic: "Gesundheit!", Frannie/German Guy, PG

[vienna_waits]

Frannie was running late, yet again, and if Lieutenant Welsh noticed, she’d never hear the end of it. She checked her watch and tried to even out her strides so her coffee wouldn’t slop around quite so much.

She hurried around the corner onto Maxwell and collided with something large and white and crackly and something far more solid behind the

Oh, Frannie. You have to love the way she goes after the things she wants. Beautifully done.

[vienna_waits]

My goodness, that was practically instantaneous! Thank you! You've got to love Frannie, eh?

[kill_claudio]

My goodness, that was practically instantaneous!

Ahem. Yes. Well. I'm supposed to be writing my submission for today, but I keep procrastinating. Also, I have no life. Hi.

Well, I'm still trying to catch up from last week. (I said I wanted to do 3 prompts a week, and this is #2. From last week, that is.) *sigh*

Karl-Jürgen from Altensalzwedel and Frannie from Chicago... *flails*

“Warum bin ich nur in der verfluchten DDR aufgewachsen...

This sentence had me in stitches. I don't really know why.

I'm so glad your guy speaks better German than the one we see in the episode. His bad German upsets me every time.

His bad German upsets me every time.
Me too. Paul Gross really didn't have his head on straight if he thought no one was going to notice all the mistakes and the horrible accent.

Glad you liked my German guy better! And I'm very glad I made you laugh!

>Me too. Paul Gross really didn't have his head on straight if he thought no one was going to notice all the mistakes and the horrible accent.

Oh, I feel calm here - Paul's pronunciation is obviously better than mine. :-)

[_scally]

That was absolutely great! Thaks, danke, spasybo, grazie!
Und dein Deutch ist sehr gut!
And it just felt good to see my native language - Russian mentioned here. :-)))

>She quickly scanned his hands. No rings. Good.

Yeah - that's Frannie!

>“Oh, Entschuldigung,” the man said quickly, a red flush creeping up his neck, and removed his hands.

“No, no, I don’t have to go to school,” Frannie replied brightly, trying to fold the map back together.

Oh, I almost fell from my chair. LOL. :-))))

[vienna_waits]

Glad you enjoyed it, and vielen Dank fürs Kompliment! I did take some Russian in college, but I have forgotten almost all of it.

I love him thinking that Americans ARE like in the movies! Much fun.

I know no German, but it was somehow delightful reading even without the translation.

[vienna_waits]

Yay! Very glad you liked.
