The Advent Calendar Drabbles
by Slantedlight

3rd December


The snow didn’t last of course, because nothing did, not in their grime-caked London. Doyle woke to rain, and their day descended into petty violence and the whine of frightened men. By the end of it, seven on the dot, Bodie had even dragged him to HQ to get their report done, because he - just – didn’t – care.

“In here,” he urged, holding Doyle’s shoulders firmly and steering him through a door. “I’ll even make you a cuppa.”

And then Bodie stood him in front of the calendar, left his hands where they were, and refused to move until Doyle smiled.

Oh, that's perfect! Would bring a smile to Doyle's face even after a bad day.

And the story means this is one advent calendar you really want to follow every day!

You're going to save it all together at the end, right?

You'll never guess what - I've only just cottoned on that there are piccies to go with the drabbles! I wondered why I wasn't getting all the references in the fic! Durrrr... thicko...

Any road up, I'm loving it (especially now I know what's going on! *g*).

Heh. Okay, I laughed out loud at that surprise! Doyle would, absolutely, smile--and Bodie would take such delight in the whole thing. Thank you! And a happy 3rd December to you!

That would just have to cheer Doyle up.

How nice that Cowley has his rubber ducky there in his office en-suite.

This calendar is such a great idea!

It's even funnier when you realize that this is part of an actual photo of Gordon Jackson! But it looks like something Bodie would dream up. (I just had to dust off this icon that I made ages ago.)
