How Topher Brink Lost His Pants
I've been meaning to write this for a while. I was always curious as to how exactly Topher came to lose his pants in 'Echoes'. This is very short and intended as a stand alone, but if you like it, there can be more!
This is for Whiskey's Original Personality, who is now an Adelle/Topher shipper! Yay!
As the effects of the drug wore off Adelle DeWitt hurried away to her office, holding her shoes in one hand and trying to flatten her mussed hair with the other. Topher was left to clear up the empty packets that had once contained 'inappropriate starches' and juice boxes. After a moment he remembered that he had Ivy to do such menial tasks for him. It was then and only then, that Topher Brink realised he was not wearing any pants. He ran a hand through his sandy coloured hair in a panic stricken fashion. What had the drug made him do? He only remembered fragments – something about November, the trampoline, the 'crisps', Adelle. Adelle DeWitt.
Topher was really beginning to freak himself out now and he moved, like he was sleepwalking, to his computer terminal and checked the camera footage. He stifled a noise half way between a groan and a yelp with the back of his hand as he watched the day's events unfold on the screen.
"Oh, oh, oh." He pushed his chair back, intent on going to talk to her or, or something... It was then that he noticed something at the bottom of the screen. He was not the only person watching the feed, there was one other viewer. He clicked to see who it was .
"Frak." He mock-cursed and sat down again, heavily.
