Long story short: started to watch this show, now I'm addicted to it and the plot bunnies are loose. So this is me doing something about it.
This will be an alphabet collection. I already have some ideas for some letters but feel free to leave your opinion. Maybe I can (and will) do something about it.
I didn't review this and English is not my first language, so I apologize for any mistakes.

A - Appreciation
The title is from a song of a band called "Death Cab for Cutie", because I'm not creative at all. I'll probably change it in the near future.
I don't own Scorpion. *sighs*
"Care to tell me what is this all about?!"
She looks at Cabe over her shoulder. They are all gathered in the kitchen while making homemade pizzas.
"What? We are just making pizzas." The ex-waitress answers, focusing on the task of chopping tomatoes.
"Paige, you forget that I've known you for close to three years." The older man answers, picking a knife to help her.
She sighs. During the case they had today, she overheard when a group of agents was talking bad things about the group of geniuses. How they didn't fit and stuff like that.
Cabe keeps looking at her and he has to hide a smile at the similarity of the sight in front of him. She's struggling with her words, just like them.
"I heard some people saying bad things about them, today. And it pained me because yeah, they are different, I get it." She shrugs, leaving the knife on the table before turning to look at the group that she now considers as family. "But they have such big, big hearts and sometimes I feel like they're not appreciated the way they should, you know?"
He nods because he knows the feeling all to well. He turns too, siding with her.
The geniuses keep saying how different they are from the normals, how they don't fit. When, in reality, if the people were just a little bit like them, the world would be a better place to live, he thinks.
"So I decided to do this thing to... I don't know, make them feel like they're loved, you know? Even if they don't know the real reason behind it."
She's blushing and Cabe thinks that if Amanda had lived, she would've liked the woman next to him.
His voice is soft when he says, "they're lucky to have you."
"No, Cabe," she answers in the same tone, watching the grins on their faces, "we are lucky to have them."
