Heeeyyyy, the alert system picked back up! Yay! Anyway, in commemoration of LA GLAM Addison in the next episode (two hours of blissssss...and maybe some Taye), I'm going to try a few double updates to get number 100 up by next Friday. Which, sadly, will be the last of these drabbles, but then, they do close on a potential new chapter in our favorite character's life. Which means the beginning of a new chapter. And OO, I've got two fics that I definitely need to write after (during?) the next week, because I'm just so excited about the latest episode. And John Milton, but that's a different one.

Sunset

"Red sky at night, sailor's delight," Derek whispers, leaning over the ferryboat railing.

Addison smiles. "Tomorrow's going to be beautiful."

Derek smiles back. "Yeah. Shame we have to work."

"It is a shame." A thought occurs to him.

"You know what we should do?"

"Oh no," she groans.

"No, this is a good idea." No hope appears in her eyes. "Let's have lunch tomorrow. On top of the Empire State Building."

"Derek, do you realize how windy it'll get?"

"Always the naysayer, Addi. Come on. They have these cute little viewfinders somewhere on the way, I know it." Her head is buried in her hands, and she doesn't speak. "Please?"

A muffled voice replies, "Are you sure they have viewfinders?"

Reference: Red sky at night, sailor's delight; red sky in morning, sailors take warning. Old saying, very accurate. And it sort of backstories that line in the first few episodes of Addison, when she meets Derek for lunch on top of...I know it's not the Space Needle, but some building. "It's not brown-bagging it on top of the Empire State Buidling, but it does have these cute little viewfinders."
