( #004 ) WIZARD COPS

[chatona]

MAGICAL COP AU you are a cop. you're also magical. the two are not unrelated: while wizards are not particularly common, someone's got to make sure that the arm of the law extends also to the supernatural, and that's where you (and your partner?!) come in. whether it's chasing down rogue wizards, making peace between supernatural entities, or interrogating ghosts that have witnessed crime, getting coffee or a pint at the pub after hours, you have your hands full. just don't make too many wand jokes, keep property damage to a minimum, and don't forget to do the paperwork at the end of the day. an AU inspired by the rivers of london series by ben aaronovitch

[u silly. he leans his face on his hand.]

I never have plans.

[uberlegenheit]

[ his mistake. ]

Only urges?

[broil]

Something like that. Not all of us care for routines.

[uberlegenheit]

[ routines are for privileged people. people who don't have to worry about survival. ]

Where is this place you mentioned?

[ orders them new round of drinks with a hand motion. ]

[broil]

Historical center. But you won't find anything until after hours.

That means I've got you for another hour.

[uberlegenheit]

[ head tilt. ]

[ he got his information. he could go now. ]

[ he would finish his drink first though. he just got it. ]

[broil]

[You wouldn't leave the demon alone, Erik! What if you run into a shifter again? You won't have him to tell you one from the other.]

Please, don't look too excited.

[uberlegenheit]

[ that would be unpleasant. ]

I can think of a few things I could wrap up in an hour's time.

[ something more productive than sucking up to a demon that prefers him unpredictable anyway. ]

[broil]

Nothing that'd involve little old me?

[uberlegenheit]

Unless you would like to be wrapped up. How about it?

[ he could arrest you. ]

[broil]

That's almost my idea of having fun.

[uberlegenheit]

Almost?

[ why do i do this to myself ]

[broil]

Unless you're into doing it in public.

[uberlegenheit]

[ i'm just going to drink this and leave. ]

[broil]

Pussy.

[uberlegenheit]

Excuse me?

[ stops mid standing up. ]

[broil]

Did I stutter?

[Brings cigarette to his lips. You heard me.]

[uberlegenheit]

[ yeah bitch i heard you. sits back down. ]

Any particular reason for the name calling? I have a job to do.

[broil]

Not for another hour. I thought we decided this.

[uberlegenheit]

It's not the only case I am working on, you do realize that.

[ you decided. ]

Or do you wish to tell me how to do my job, Petre?

[broil]

Is your job really all there is?

[he does, by the way.]

[uberlegenheit]

[ that's going to be a problem because he does not like Being Told what to do. ]

You know how it is, old friend.

[ he needs to succeed in his job so he can make the mutant underground thing work. ]

[broil]

[which only makes petre want to make him do what he wants even more. they are a disaster.]

Doesn't take away the fact that you were walking away from a challenge.

[uberlegenheit]

[ set fire to the rain. ]

Which challenge are we talking about?

[ getting real tired of yo shit. taps his fingers against the table. ]

[broil]

Sex in public. With handcuffs.

[contemplating the thought, eying the distance.]
