Because he won't stop asking questions...

[miss_lucy21]

I'm working on the case-fic. And a number of details are coming together enough that I can write the beginning, which involves G and Deeks on their own (not for any disastrous reason- everyone's fine). And it's the middle of the night and they're about to have a discussion with a person of interest, but they're waiting for some info first. So, Deeks starts asking G questions. First, about what's going on, but then it turns into asking G about what he's done before he was in NCIS. Which is fascinating, but I don't *want* Deeks to be stopping to ask questions right now. None of it is moving the plot along. So I said, "dude, it's like 3 am for you, don't you just want to take care of this and go on back to bed?"

Deeks looks at me like I'm insane and says "Hell, no! Not if Callen's *talking*. And Sam's not here to yell at me for being a pest. So I'm gonna ask away! Don't you want to know what he's going to say?"

I tried to tell him that I already *know* what Callen's going to say, given that *I'm* the writer. Which got me "Shyeah, right" looks from *both* Deeks and G.

So, payback time. I'm gonna ask *him* some. So, Deeks: about 35, 36 years old? Something like that?

None of it's gonna make it into the final story. It's all brain dump stuff, but hey, it might come in useful sometime. Maybe.
