MCA #0, Wednesday Morning

[hatesparadise]

Well, yesterday happened. And now Danny had a series of shots for rabies.

Which was just great.

But today he was sorting through some mail to find something addressed to him from the Navy. Which turned out to be paperwork on a life insurance policy for one Steve McGarrett with him as the beneficiary.

"Steven!"

[for the guy!]

Comments

[grenadesandohana]

Getting his way always made him a little smug.

"Am I?"

[hatesparadise]

"Don't you play dumb there," Danny said, wagging a finger at him. "I know you far too well for it."

[grenadesandohana]

Steve grinned at him. "Yes, you do."

[hatesparadise]

"Yeah, I do," Danny agreed, expression softening as he watched Steve.

[grenadesandohana]

And that look right there was why you now had beachfront property on O'ahu, Danny.

"Good."

[hatesparadise]

That wasn't how it worked, but he was taking it!

"C'mon. I'll make breakfast before I go into the office."

[grenadesandohana]

Of course that's how it worked.

"Do we have time for pancakes?" Steve asked. "And turkey bacon?"

Who bought turkey bacon, Steve. Who.

[hatesparadise]

Yeah, Danny definitely did a double take. "Did you buy turkey bacon?"

[grenadesandohana]

"It's healthy!" Steve said.

[hatesparadise]

"It's not bacon!" Ah, the appropriate level of bickering.

[grenadesandohana]

"It says bacon right on the package!"

[hatesparadise]

"Bacon comes from a pig," Danny shot back. "This is poorly treated poultry meat."

[grenadesandohana]

"It still tastes like bacon."

Steven. Who hurt you?

[hatesparadise]

Oh, that was very clearly what Danny was thinking too.

"It does not."

[grenadesandohana]

"Stick in a BLT and you'll never notice," Steve proclaimed.

[hatesparadise]

"I would too notice," Danny replied. "And there won't be any BLTs until it's tomato season. It's just sad when the tomatoes aren't ripe."

[grenadesandohana]

"I don't really notice," Steve said entirely to wind Danny up.

[hatesparadise]

Danny made a completely affronted noise. "Just you wait until the summer. I'll change your mind."

Oh, now he was getting a fancy BLT out of this. Very clever, Steven.

[grenadesandohana]

He was going to get Danny to rage-grow tomatoes.

Steve hummed non-committedly. "If you say so."

[hatesparadise]

He just might!

"It is a vast difference."

[grenadesandohana]

"Is it?" Steve wondered.

[hatesparadise]

"You are gonna learn this summer. I'm gonna grow the best tomatoes you've ever had." Since he never had time or the property for it in Hawaii.

Or, you know, the inclination.

[grenadesandohana]

Steve grinned. "You can grow tomatoes, Danno?"

[hatesparadise]

"Sure I can." He was going to spend so much time at the plant shop in town now.

[grenadesandohana]

"How about the lettuce?"

Steve, stop winding him up.
