Christmas at Work

Continued from: X @goldenedtriangle

There had been something troubling Tubbs all day. It was the prospect of being alone for Christmas for the first time in her life. Gone were the days where she and her elder brother decorated the pine-trees with lights, tinsel, and ornaments. But Raphael wasn’t coming back- there was no car that could drive the distance between them. It was too long a road to travel to reach  eternity. Santa no longer left gifts under the tree- not even a small one for being good all year. Even the lack of snow and frosted widows wore upon her usually cheerful soul.

This year, her tree was barren- a blank canvas waiting to be painted. Truthfully, she hadn’t the heart to decorate or even get into the spirit of Christmas in her down time.The laughing, joking, and singing of carols all died upon her lips the moment she walked through the door of the apartment. A twinge of pain came with every reminder that New York was 1,285.6 miles away. 

Doleful hues of evergreen and coffee shift to fixate upon her boss. She’d practically do anything to avoid going home to an empty apartment even if it meant inventing work to do on top of her fairly heavy load.A weary smile appears upon her face when the dark-haired Lieutenant spoke of needing her to work the case and keep an eye on Lombard. 

She rubs her fingers long wise across her lower-lip. ”Where would you like me to start with Lombard?” Her gaze travels to his empty desk.

The clicking of typewriters provides a soundtrack for the things falling into place in Tubbs’s life. For a moment, she listens to the chaos stirring both outside of her boss’s office and internally via her thundering heart-beat. Her fingers delve into her suit-jacket’s sleeves, one at each of her sides. Her front teeth ghost across the edge of her lip as she prepares spill a heavy secret to him.

She closes her eyes and for a split moment, Tubbs is back in the  Bahamas. The sun beats down on her face till she can practically still feel the heat even inside with the air-conditioning running. In the fluttering of her lashes as they pry back open, the tropical vacation land disappears, transforming back into the spotless office of her boss.

Tubbs slowly crosses the room and glowers out the window for a brief moment. “I...” she starts, her voice nearly swallowed by the noise of the rest of the precinct. The detective clears her throat and glances back around the room. There is no place to run and nowhere to hide. The truth would eventually have to come out. It might as well be now.  “Remember when Sonny and I chased Calderone to the Bahamas?” She internally kicks herself for having lead with such a lame line. 

Arms fold slowly across her chest. “I accidentally slept with a suspect.” No! She corrects herself “a school teacher. To her, he had been more than a suspect. He had swept her off her feet. I didn’t know who he was until I woke up in his bed the next morning... he was Calderone’s son.” Her eyes turn away in shame. Swallowing thickly she continued. “I think.. I might be ...” She allows a deep exhale to fill in her silence. “I might be pregnant.” The last word is hard to get past her lips for it could and would eventually change everything.

Turning towards Castillo with an expression of determination, “I'm going to work for as long as I can. I need to work.” She felt violated by Calderone’s family. If only Angelo Calderone didn’t walk away. He was the one to abandon her once he found out the truth about his father. Now, she would be walking this road all alone.“Its not a mistake I plan on making again,” she mumbles under her breath.

On days where it's Shaun or Nate's birthday, does Quinn do anything? Avoid anything? How does Quinn feel when she sees other young children?

ask questions, get meta.

Quinn utilizes heavy compartmentalization and suppressing or avoiding negative associations. So, holidays and birthdays are usually days that she tries to stay as busy as possible -- in her mind, if she stays in motion and keeps working, she won’t have to dwell or be reminded of their birthday, of them. 

As for seeing other children, there’s definitely a softness that’s drawn out of her. She enjoys talking with them, enjoys their innate curiosity and how unabashed they are. I think while she loves infant children it can be very emotionally difficult for her; instinct will dictate that she reach out to them if she senses distress, etc. However, if Quinn’s holding one and there’s a private moment, the realization and grief how much she misses Shaun will hit her at one point, and she may become a bit emotionally distraught.

[Something more light... What physical attributes does Quinn tend to find more appealing? :)]

Yes…. In general, though? She doesn’t really have a “set” type. For her, she’s very much drawn to people that are more cerebral and capable of mentally keeping up with her than anything else – which I know isn’t a physical attribute, but let me live. I do think that people with certain characteristics that Nate had might earn her pause or consideration: seeing someone with features similar to their hair, freckles, the sharp cut of their jaw, their smile (sly, with dimples), or their eyes, which…. is not good, admittedly, as it can pave the way for some of her more toxic coping mechanisms. 

She likes lighter colored hair. Blonde especially. But again, Quinn prefers a strong personality and sharp mind first. The packaging that it comes in comes second.
