Hi guys!
Well, Bones is coming back on TONIGHT in New Zealand so I decided to write this in Celebration. Also since I'm originally from the UK I thought it would be cool to send my home country up a bit.
Cheerio!
P.S I haven't seen the first episode yet so please don't throw a wobbly if I get some details wrong. Ta!
Special Agent Seeley Booth stared at the car in front of him. How had they mangled his order this badly? Had the printer jammed and ripped the paper? Had someone spilled tea on it? Were the stuck up Brits just trying to humiliate the American?
It was the spy-style car he had asked for.
Just more Austin Powers than James Bond.
"I asked for an Aston! Y'know, the James Bond car"
"Sorry sir, all we 'ad were these. But I'm sure if you talk to Q 'e can fix you up with something more proper, like."
Booth stared at him. He was sure the gum chewing youth was being deliberately unhelpful. And the accent sounded incredibly put-on. Like an American teenager, only more sarcastic.
He sighed. Sarcastic was about right. He'd made a joke about the lack of English dignitaries there to greet them and the customs lady had asked if he wanted some flown in. If this was America she'd be fired and sued. Oh and the man at immigration would be shot.
He was tempted to buy a T-Shirt saying "I went to London and all I got was extremely rude treatment and a stress related Hernia"
"But an Aston Martin is so...British."
"Oh well, you should of said, yer lordship. Hows about I call up Gordon Brown and ask him to drive you around in Red double Decker Bus yeah? You gonna stay at Buckingham palace? Or maybe the Tower o' London? Fancy a cuppa? I'll ring for the Butler."
"Just give me the keys." And he added to himself a mask. If I'm seen in this, my reputation is gone.
Angrily, he began to drive off. There was a squeal of brakes.
"We drive on the left 'ere" the kid said helpfully.
