Little Steps

Disclaimer: I still don't own Castle, and I'm back to being a poor student with bills, so...

AN: This is a series of thank you drabbles for people who helped with the fundraising campaign to help me get a new wheelchair. Prompt and details at the end.


There is no one giant step that does it. It's a lot of little steps.

"I can just imagine you in your little princess dress," Castle says gleefully.

"Thanks Dad," she sighs, and then "Not a princess, Castle," she says.

Her phrasing makes him laugh, and she drops her head in her hands.

"The Little Mermaid, everyone likes -"

"That came later," Jim supplies, and Castle makes a noise of distaste.

"Literary period," Kate defends, looking up.

Castle catches on, her eyes lighting up when he starts table jamming to Oliver and Company. "Close," she admits.

Rick chokes on laughter. "Kate...The Great Mouse Detective?"

He makes her wear his PI hat to bed that night.


Prompt: lord-of-the-song asked:

Beckett had a secret love for Disney - Castle finds out.

Written as a thank you for lord-of-the-song for the "WotCW_wheels" campaign.
