POI fic: Cat Lady
TITLE: POI fic - Cat Lady
AUTHOR: whomii2
RATING: G
DISCLAIMER: do not own
SUMMARY: John has a slight problem with one of his neighbors...
There was one noticeable downside to Reese’s new apartment: his elderly neighbor, who often required his assistance.
While they were meeting with Carter to get some files on their latest number, Reese took the opportunity to gripe about the situation while they waited for their drinks. He claimed that fetching Mrs McGillicuddy’s cat was beneath him as a highly trained military and CIA operative. (He didn’t really mind helping the little old lady, but the cat in question was a monster - too mean to be truly stuck and most likely just waiting for the opportunity to scratch John up again. No doubt this was cosmic payback for his not taking in Bear)
Finch sniffed and said “Even Superman rescued cats from trees from time to time.”
Forgoing the argument that comic books weren’t real life, John snarked back “Maybe, but Batman would never be caught doing something so undignified as rescuing a cat”
“Oh, I don’t know about that. He seemed awful interested in “rescuing” Selina Kyle” Carter said with a Cheshire cat smile.
John forebore to mention that neither Mrs McGillicuddy nor her cat looked anything like Catwoman.
He shuddered at the thought of the elderly octagenarian in skin-tight leather.
