Author's Notes: Post-"As You Were", dialogue only. Not first Haven fic (that's still in works), just a side drabble that came to mind.

Here We Are
by Karolyn Gray

"You know I thought you'd gone crazy back there, when you shot the chameleon."

"So did I."

"So how did you know it wasn't Audrey?"

"Just knew."

"Yeah, but how?"

"I'm a cop. She's my partner. I notice things."

"Right, Detective. You observe."

"At the moment I'm observing an ass."

"Officer Wuornos making a joke? Careful, you might hurt yourself."

"Your sideburns are crooked, your goatee needs a trim, and you need more product if you're going to style your hair like that. Should be more careful when grooming you know."

"What! Crap, you're right. Fine, I believe you about the chameleon. Still, that was pretty sneaky getting the gun."

"You sound surprised. I can do sneaky when I want to."

"Then why have you never caught me?"

"Maybe you're not worth the trouble."

"Now wait a minute. That's just rude and insulting. Sneaky or not you'll never catch me."

"You admitting to smuggling?"

"How about I get you another beer?"

"Prob'ly a good idea."

"Why are you here anyway?"

"Because I hate seeing people I know die, even when it's not them."

"So you decide to come here, drink my beer, and harass me to take your mind off things? You really need a girlfriend or a hobby."

"She left and I ran out of lacquer."

"Okay. On that non sequitur, I'm cutting you off."

Fin.
