Relaxing in her office after a long day, Margo lets her thoughts drift to Sergei...

She’d left her office door open, confident no one would find themselves in the vicinity of the director’s office at this hour – until 7 the next morning, that deserted hallway turned her office into a space that was only hers.

Sergei would have no difficulty walking in.

Today, he would have a beard, she decided.

Sergei would shut the door quietly, cognizant of his welcome in her domain. She would stand by the liquor cabinet, as she did now, looking out into the night, while he would step towards her, his footfalls muted by the carpet. She would catch a glimpse of his reflection in the window, their gazes meeting, before he would rest his hands on her waist, over her jacket, the contact pleasant but that extra layer of fabric frustrating.

Of its own volition, her mind conjured up the image of him in his black turtleneck, sleeves rolled up. That night, she had had a little too much alcohol and too little sleep in her system; one more hour looking at his hands giving life to their design, at his blonde arm hair glinting from the overhead light, at his silhouette elegantly defined by the tight wool, and she would have fucked him right there on the table. Although she appreciated the solid blues and greys of his suits that never failed to enhance his eyes, the black turtleneck made much more frequent appearances in her fantasies involving him.

We have a choice right now to save human lives. Dozens of civilians, engineers, scientists, they could be killed. We have the power to prevent that.

What's so funny?

Came across this song randomly when I woke up early and it’s so heavily Margo x sergei coded I can’t

[tiltedsyllogism]

Happy Margo Monday! I’m not a gif maker, and so I thought I’d start contributing by pulling out some of my older Margo stories and maybe get myself out of my current fic slump. Here’s a Margo pov story set shortly after the end of S3. (Trigger warnings for uhhh all of that.)

[multiplicity-positivity]

Amasui anon just to say yeah thats correct! for me, I'm dating a double-- got kicked from a server for it but I'm happy with him yk

Gotcha! We’re so sorry you went through something like that - dating a double is not harmful in any way, shape or form!

We’re writing the post right now and will add it to the queue.

People interested in pursuing romantic relationships with themselves, doubles, duplicates, or other versions of themselves will always be welcome here, no questions asked!! We don’t see how identifying this way or dating a copy of yourself could be harmful in the slightest. We do see, however, how denying those people care and community could definitely cause harm!

Thanks for reaching out! We actually have two positivity posts in the queue right now, so you can expect it to be up Monday night at 8:00PM EST!

Masonry Monday: The Case of the Long-Legged Models

A young woman finds herself the target of a racketeer who killed her gambler father over an IOU -- which he now claims the daughter must pay. Shortly afterwards, the racketeer is murdered and the daughter is charged . . . but first Perry Mason must decipher which of three identical guns is the murder weapon.

Who’s Who

Perry Mason’s client: Stephanie Falkner, the daughter of a gambler who suddenly finds herself being threatened to pay his debts

The victim: George Castle, a racketeer whose attempts to make a big profit on a land deal lead him to be both murderer and murder victim

Suspects: Michael Garvin Sr.,  Michael Garvin Jr., Evie Elliott,  Margo Winters Garvin, Glenn Falkner, 

The Setup

It’s late at night at a casino in Las Vegas, and a beautiful redhead wonders around the tables with chips. She goes to the craps table where a man named Falkner is on a losing streak and bets against him. After a few tosses, he fails and loses the last of his money, leaving the casino. A hard-looking man with a cigarette watches him leave. Later, Falkner is writing to his daughter, Stephanie. He apologizes for breaking his promises and losing money at gambling again. There’s a knock on the door -- it’s the hard-looking man. His name is Castle, and he’s come to collect on $8,000 that Falkner owes him, complete with promissory note, payable on demand.

Falkner says he knows Castle saw him losing a big pot earlier, and he knows Castle doesn’t really want him to pay up. Falkner says Castle wants a plot of land that Falkner owns, upon which the “Marty Davis crowd” intends to build a new casino. He also knows Castle promised this crowd he could deliver the land by April 12. Castle admits he put up $50,000 as a guarantee, but Falkner won’t budge on selling, as he’s keeping the land for his daughter. Castle says the daughter will likely be easier to handle, draws a gun, and shoots Falkner dead.

Sometime later, in Los Angeles, Castle presents the same promissory note to Stephanie Falkner. She initially says she’d rather not sell the property, but agrees to give him an answer after discussing it with someone. After he goes, Stephanie makes a phone call. Later, a young man pulls up to the Lodestar Apartments, where Castle is staying and rings his apartment’s bell. It’s Michael Garvin Jr, whom Castle recognizes. He notes that Junior just got married to a long-legged model named Margo Winters recently, and seems amused when Junior tries to defend Stephanie. Junior was once engaged to Stephanie but no longer is. His father, Garvin Sr, is fond of Stephanie. Junior tries to throw a bunch but takes a hit and gets thrown out for his trouble.

Castle next goes to office of Garvin Investments and greets the secretary, Eva, whom he knows. He got her the job and isn’t happy that she apparently ratted out his location and intentions to Junior, the son of her boss. He reminds her that he’s got blackmail material on her for check forging in Kansas. The phone rings -- it’s Stephanie, who asks to speak to Garvin. Eva initially lies, saying he’s out of town. As soon as Castle leaves, she calls Stephanie back and says Garvin is coming back from Vegas and has arranged a meeting with Perry Mason the next morning. Castle overhears and threatens her again.

Enter Perry Mason, Attorney at Law

Stephanie explains the situation to Perry Mason, as Garvin hovers over her shoulder. She says the price Castle’s offering for her land is half of what it’s worth. Garvin also drops the bomb that he suspects Castle of murdering Glenn Falkner, Stephanie’s father. He was tracing Falkner’s movements in Vegas and said Castle was shadowing him the night he died. Perry says that proves nothing, and Garvin pulls out a revolver and says he intends to get proof straight from Castle.

Perry asks if Garvin is licensed, and Garvin says he is -- he’s a deputy. Garvin says he owns three revolvers -- one for his son, one locked in his office safe, and one on his person for emergencies. Perry reprimands Garvin for not just taking his theories to the authorities. Stephanie starts to cry, saying she’s still grieving her father. Garvin comforts her as she sobs and ushers her out of the office. Perry asks Della for her thoughts, and Della accurately pegs that Garvin is in love with Stephanie.

That night, Perry arrives at the Lodestar Apartments and meets Castle. The presence of a lawyer has the racketeer behaving in a much more conciliatory fashion, claiming the lowball was just an initial offer. Perry counters with an offer of $225,000, or $1,500 a front foot. He also gets Castle to admit the going rate is $1,000, which he begrudgingly offers. Perry bargains him up to $1,400, but says Stephanie still may not accept. He guesses that Castle, who is sweating, put something of his own on the line for this deal and mentions Glenn Falkner.

The phone rings and Castle says something about meeting in 10 mins and finally agrees to pay $1,500. Perry leaves, telling Castle to be in his office in the morning. Downstairs, he stops at a phone booth and calls Paul.

She could not bear to make him another promise she knew she couldn’t keep.

She could not bear to let him in again knowing he couldn’t stay.

She would not meet with him.

She consoled herself with holding actual memories of him safe, healthy and happy. This was how she wanted to remember him. Sitting in a diner, smiling, drinking coffee. And this would be her silver lining, yet again.

8) Small!

More Pokemon crossover. Refurb is just a little guy...

Rain pounds against her back, but Margo doesn’t pay it any mind. Her main concern lies with the small, chilly body cradled in her arms.

“Hold on, little guy,” she murmurs to it, soothingly, “it’s gonna be ok. We’re gonna get you fixed up.”

From inside her pocket, Jingles rattles nervously, and she soothes him with a gentle shushing noise as she ducks under the overhang, jacket leaving a wet trail toward the doors to the laboratory building.

She doesn’t have a swipe card; or at least, doesn’t have one YET. Technically, her first day isn’t until Monday, and she doesn’t even know if interns get the privilege of building access…

…but someone has to be leaving, at some point. And she’ll be able to use the opportunity to slip in and find a solution, she thinks.

She hopes.

The first two brush past her in a rush, ignoring her pleas and letting the door slam behind them. The third pauses as she starts forward, holding out a hand.

“I’m sorry, I can’t let you in…”

Trailing off as she notices the rusty Magnemite, she leans down to run a finger over the still hull.

“Ooh, he doesn’t look good. Is he yours?”

Jingles rattles a fierce warning at her from inside Margo’s jacket pocket, and she withdraws abruptly, hand still extended uncertainly.

Margo gives her pocket a little thump with her elbow, and Jingles goes quiet with a few mutinous clacks.

“Sorry, Klefki. He’s a little protective. But no, I… found him by one of the dumpsters behind the biotech building.”

Redoubling her grip on the little Pokemon, Margo swallows hard, feeling tears start up in the corners of her eyes.

Don’t cry! Don’t cry, you have to fix this.

“Please. I don’t have a way to get to a Pokémon Center and he needs power-“

Raising a hand to cut her off, the woman steps aside, clearing the doorway for her.

“He needs more than power. Come on in. I’ll call you a car, and we’ll get him a little charge to tide him over until it comes.”

-

By Monday, she has a new companion to register.

He’s not up and hovering yet… not with his strength so diminished. But he’s happy enough to nestle in her arms as she follows the rest of her cohort into the building.

Most of the introductory information is dull; rules for living in Faro-owned apartments, stern admonitions against partying too hard, the proper places to pitch a Pokemon battle… none of which apply to Margo herself. She drones through them, giving the newly-named Refurb gentle little strokes as she half-listens.

It’s when the potential mentors file into the room, ready to offer up projects and laboratory access, that she perks up, scanning the collection with eager interest.

One of them in particular catches her eye; a slight woman, situated toward the back of the group, arms folded tightly across her chest, as though just being in the presence of this many people makes her uneasy.

Is that…?

But, yes… everything about the woman matches the description of the reclusive engineer whose work Margo has admired fervently for the past three years of her college career; there’s no mistaking that flaming red hair, after all.

It is! I didn’t know she was taking interns!

And, perhaps most choke-slammingly, it’s Margo that her eyes turn to as the formal portion of the talks end, and the assembled engineers begin to break apart, seeking out their respective choices frown the group. As she approaches, an awkward half-smile stretches across her face, as though she wants to smile, but isn’t precisely sure how.

“Hi. Good to see you again.”

Shockingly enough, Jingles doesn’t rattle a warning at her; instead, he zips in her direction, taking a quick turn around her head before returning to his regular orbit around Margo’s.

“Your little friend is looking a lot better. I had a feeling he was going to be staying with you.”

Reaching down, she gives the newly-polished shell a little rub with her fingertip. Refurb buzzes cheerfully at the contact, the magnets at his sides wiggling up and down with pleasure.

Margo’s entire brain contracts Frostbite. For a moment, she can’t make the words leave her mouth. When they finally do, they come out as an embarrassing squeak.

“You…?”

The crooked smile widens a bit, and she nods.

“Me. Yeah. And I’d like to work together, for as long as you’re here.”
