Anywhere But Here Challenge
Oct. 13th, 2004 04:55 pmFirst fic ever! Completely unbetaed, no facts were checked, and who knows what the word count is. You have been warned! Oh. F/K with a twist. Kinda.
Untitled (heh! redundant!)
Notes: F/K, totally G rated. Sorry. I'll try better next time. This is for
mergatrude
engenda
laylee and any other person who is the same nationality as me. Guess where I am? Um, this actually appeared as a movie in my head, hence all the dialogue. Sorry if that offends people.
"Tell me why we're here again Frase."
"Certainly Ray. We have just finished a three day international conference on combatting orgainsed crime."
"Yeah, I got that, my brain is not that numb. Although my ass is from those plastic chairs. What I meant was, why're we in this building?"
"Ah. Well Ray, our flight does not leave for twenty four hours, so I thought we could do some sight seeing while we had the opportunity."
"Lemme get this straight. Your idea of sight seeing is to find the tallest building with an observation deck in any given city, and look out towards the horizon."
"Yes Ray. Although I'm not just looking at the horizon. I happen to be memorising the 'lay of the land', as it were."
"At least this one doesn't rotate Frase. That one on our stopover in Sydney made me wanna be sick."
"Yes, well, Centrepoint Tower is known for its revolving restaurant. There are other places to go here however. I understand there is an entire street devoted to Italian foodstuffs. Are you hungry Ray?"
"You bet. Where exactly?"
"An area called Lygon Street. It is renowned for its restaurants and gelati bars, although apparently parking can be a problem."
"Not for us. We can get a cab."
"I suggest we walk - it's not that far. Only eight kilometres."
"Benton Fraser! I'm not walking that far. I'm getting a cab, and you don't have Dief to use an excuse not to come with me. There's an empty one. Get in."
"Understood."
------------------------------------------------------------------------------------
"Ah, man, that food was great. Even the lemon gelati tasted good, you know?"
"I must admit Ray, I was hungrier than I thought. Ray?"
"Ray?"
"Ray!"
"What?"
"No."
"No?"
"Ray Vecchio."
"......"
"Benny? What are you doing here?"
Aaaand that's where I'll leave it. Bye! Scuttles off and hides from thrown objects. I'll keep any betas though. I need them.

(And Fraser would so go up the Rialto.)
If you want a beta, I'd be happy to help.

I figured that would be the first place he'd go. I got the idea from the ep 'Perfect Strangers'.
Thanks for the offer of beta. Prepare to be inundated. NOT! ::grin::
