God dammit, I have enough stories going on in this fandom, but I just can't stop XD ok so, this will be a series of one shots, some crossovers, others are just little one shots. There will be pairings, but they will mostly be crack, no worries I will warn you, so without anymore waiting, here is the first one-shot.
Crossover with Person of interest.
Tea time with Mr. Wren.
Out of all of Mr. Peabody's companions and colleagues there was only one man that seemed to understand him the most. His name is Harold Wren, he's more reclusive than the dog, it fact, it's rare for Peabody to really see him outside of the job. He's the CEO of a big insurance agency called IFT, once every two or three months, Peabody would have to stop by and inform Wren of a few things then, somehow, him and Mr. Wren would wind-up talking about mundane things, from their jobs to Sherman, more times than not, it'd be about Sherman. Still, in the end, Peabody would leave, both of them saying their farewells and then that would be it, until the next two to three months. On the occasion, Mr. Wren will drop by Peabody's house and they will normally drink tea and talk for an hour or two and then Mr. Wren would leave before Sherman needed to be picked up.
This, was one of those times.
Both where sitting down at Peabody's small dinning room table, both of them had a cup of Sencha tea in front of them, Mr. Wren had his legs crossed and smiled at Mr. Peabody.
"Tell me, How is Sherman?" Mr. Wren asked, Peabody smiled and picked up his tea cup, taking a sip, he spoke.
"He is doing fine, he's, as expected, way above his class, I think I might have him skip a few grades." Peabody explained and Harold nodded.
"Understandable." Wren said and smiled at Peabody, he leaned in and grabbed his tea cup as well. Sipping it, Harold sighed happily.
"I must say, Your home is just as lovely as before." Harold said admiring the penthouse.
"Thank you, Mr. Wren, now, I have to say, I'm glad to see you again, it's been a while since I've had a social visit." Peabody said, placing his cup down on the table. Harold just smiled a bit then sipped on his tea again.
"Well, I was in the town and I thought you might want the company." Harold said and then he uncrossed his leg, he shifted a bit, Mr. Peabody noticed the slight pained look on his face.
"Is your leg bothering you again?" Peabody asked, placing his cup down as well.
"Hm? Oh, it's just a bit stiff is all, nothing to worry about." Wren said, waving Peabody off.
For a while, Peabody wondered about Harold's leg and neck, it's almost impossible to miss, especially when the man starts to walk, a horrible limp always accompanied him. Peabody wished he knew how the man got his wounds, but, it wasn't any of the dog's business.
"Oh dear, look at the time." Mr. Wren said, Peabody looked up at his clock and blinked, Mr. Wren has been here for nearly two hours, in fact, it was almost time to pick up Sherman. Quickly, both men got up, Peabody walked over to the coatrack grabbing Mr. Wren's coat off of it.
Standing on the very tips of his toes, Mr. Peabody helped Mr. Wren put his coat on.
"Mr. Wren, I have to say, it was very pleasant having you here again, I do very much wish you would accept my invitation to dinner, I know Sherman would love to meet you." Mr. Peabody said as they both walked over to the elevator.
"And I, him, but I am very busy with my work, I can hardly make schedule for myself to have dinner alone." Wren told Peabody, the dog watched as the elevator doors opened.
"Allow me to walk you to your car." Peabody said as he stepped in side of the elevator with Mr. Wren.
"Why, thank you."
The doors to the elevator closed and the machine started to move down, Mr. Peabody noticed that Mr. Wren's eyes flickered towards the security camera in the corner of the small elevator then it went back towards the door. The elevator came to a halt and the doors opened into the busy lobby, both of them walked out of the machine and towards the front doors.
"If you don't mind me asking, what are you working on for this month's project?" Mr. Wren asked as they both stepped outside, Mr. Peabody smiled.
"Ah yes, I have a brilliant idea for a project coming up, but, unfortunately, I am not allowed to discuss it just yet." Peabody told him, the dog noticed a small frown on the man's face. They walked to the car, Mr. Wren gave Mr. Peabody one last smile.
"Once again, Thank you for having me, I do hope we can make more plans like this in the future." Harold said as he took out his keys. Mr. Peabody nodded.
"As do I."
With that, Harold started to unlock his car and Mr. Peabody excused himself. The moment the dog went back into the building, A voice in Harold's ear spoke.
"How was your date?"
"Mr. Reese, It was not a date, just a couple of colleagues enjoying a cup of tea." Harold said, his tone slightly scolding.
"Did he kiss you goodbye? Or was it just a lick on the cheek?" Reese ridiculed with a chuckle, Finch rolled his eyes but before he could reply back, another voice came in, this one female.
"Now, Reese, If I didn't know any better, I'd say you are jealous. What? Is the pooch getting more Finch time in a day than you do in a month?"
"Ms. Shaw, please, that is quite enough. Mr. Reese, how is our new number doing?" Finch asked the man as he finally pulled out of the parking lot.
"Still in school, Finch, hey, if you Mr. Peabody get married, do you think he'll call you daddy? or birdy?" Reese ridiculed some more, Finch simply sighed and shook his head from side to side, it didn't help that Ms. Shaw joined in yet again.
"Good one."
"Ms. Shaw don't encourage him." Finch sighed with a headshake, he turned the car, heading back towards the library.
"Finch, you might need to get checked." Shaw said after a few seconds, Finch sighed, regretting asking what he did.
"Checked for what?"
"Fleas of course."
Finch just sighed and shook his head once again, he could only say one word.
"Children..."
