Two in a row?

[the-star-fish.livejournal.com]

On my way to work, had to post this first.




"Canadian Consulate, Consulat du Canada, how may I help you?"

"Turnbull?"

She heard a gasp from the other end, then a reverent, "Miss Vecchio?"

"Yeah, it's me. Listen, you got any idea what Fraser's middle name is?"

"Constable Fraser?"

She rolled her eyes. "Yeah. Benton Fraser. The constable."

"Actually, he has two, Miss Vecchio. Andrew and Robert."

"Okay, thanks." She hung up the phone on his reply and turned back to her computer. After a swift glance around for prying eyes, she opened PhotoShop again and went back to work. It was hard work to fit "Benton Andrew Robert Fraser" in the space intended for it, but sheesh, "Francesca Angelica Vecchio" was almost as bad. She hesitated over the date, and then chose one at random, but far enough into the future that it was ... possible.

She regarded the page for a moment, then added three more doves, four more roses, and a pair of wedding bands tied with a ribbon. Satisfied with her work at last, she saved it, then closed out the program. Someday, she thought. Someday.

Poor Frannie.

I know. I (heart) her, really.

Love the icon.

Poor Frannie, indeed! Loved the details about what she added. ::g::

You're on a roll, hon!

[the-star-fish.livejournal.com]

Thanks! Yeah, I cringe to imagine what this thing must look like...

"Maybe just one ... more ... rosebud ..."

[the-star-fish.livejournal.com]

Thanks!

perfection, baby!

[kormantic.livejournal.com]

Benton Fraser has to have a middle name, doesn't he? And Turnbull's revernt, "Miss Vecchio?". I adored it.

Re: perfection, baby!

[the-star-fish.livejournal.com]

Thanks so much.

And? Love the icon. Yes, Lex. Yes you could.

Frannie Vecchio, another Photoshop victim. This amused me greatly.

Still trying to figure out where "Renfield" came from. That's gotta be HIS middle name. I always thought Turnbull was more of a "Dirk."

[burntcopper.livejournal.com]

I just trust in cruel parents. There are people in this world who call their children Dwayne. And Hortense. Wasn't Renfield the name of the crazy bloke who ate flies and birds in Dracula?

Heather, one of whose middle names in Penrose. But that's a passed-down family name that all the kids get.

::snickering::

Yeah, "Renfield" is a cruel, cruel joke. Poor baby.

[akite.livejournal.com]

This one is wonderful too. So many neat responses to this challenge.

[the-star-fish.livejournal.com]

Thank you kindly!!

Benton Andrew Robert Fraser.

You named him B.A.R.F.?

Cruel, cruel woman! *g*

Bethbethbeth beatbeatbeat me to it!

::hands you a gold star as well::

[the-star-fish.livejournal.com]

Another gold star for Beth!

[lamardeuse.livejournal.com]

Poor Frannie. She's never gonna get it, is she? *sigh*

[the-star-fish.livejournal.com]

Really really not. ::shakes head:: But I've been nearly that "gone" on someone -- it hurts. Poor, poor Frannie.

Aww...

[dementia-12.livejournal.com]

Poor Turnbull! ^_^ P.S- B.A.R.F.?? lol, bethbeth ^_^

Re: Aww...

[the-star-fish.livejournal.com]

Turnbull's another clueless one. I heart them both...

[ajinamoto.livejournal.com]

Open your eyes Frannie! Fraser isn't interested but Turnbull would rope the moon for you! Poor Frannie. Poor Turnbull. Poor B.A.R.F. (LOL beth, I missed that).

[the-star-fish.livejournal.com]

::pictures Turnbull singing outside Frannie's house on night:: Heeheehee.

As for B.A.R.F., I figured there must be some reason he doesn't acknowledge a middle name...

[(Anonymous)]

You have just given me the image of Turnbull standing outside the Vecchio home in the middle of the night singing "Buffalo gals" which is highly absurd and a bit disquieting.

[jenboo.livejournal.com]

awwwww...Keep dreaming Frannie, but open your eyes and look at the sweet ol' mountie who really loves you!

And B.A.R.F.!!! Bwahahahahaha!!!!!

[the-star-fish.livejournal.com]

Thank you, thank you.

::snicker::

[ardent-muses.livejournal.com]

God, this is hysterical. I love Turnbull's gasp when he realizes it's her. So sweet.

I'm sure there are lots of important police things Frannie should be doing while she's creating sappy collages instead. But who am I to throw stones? *G*

I didn't notice the initials until I read the comments, but now I'm snickering. *G*

[the-star-fish.livejournal.com]

Thanks, A!

Re: point the second -- oh, sure, I bet *you* never use company time for anything but work... *g*

I bet he never got anything monogrammed. And I'm sure it's all Bob's fault ... somehow.

[rowanfairchild.livejournal.com]

Aww. This actually had a kind of sad, ships-passing-in-the-night quality to me.

-R (seekrit Frannie/Turnbull fan)

[the-star-fish.livejournal.com]

Glad you liked it. IMO, the best part of MStB is the Turnbull/Frannie lurve.

*sigh*
