OOM: The Verdict in the Story

[bugsandslime]

Angela is missing out on some serious courtroom drama.

Granted, Angela has also been the cause of some serious courtroom drama, so maybe it all balances out.

Still, even Angela's refusal to testify may be trumped by the fact that it looks like the prosecution has the wrong murder weapon. What looked like an open and shut case has now been opened up for reinvestigation.

Hodgins is practically radiating I have news! when the officer shows him into the jail.

"As long as I need to, Jack."

Not comfortably, or happily, maybe, but she can do it.

Hodgins shakes his head slightly.

He definitely doesn't look happy. Or comfortable.

"I'll keep bringing you cupcakes."

[bringonthewonder]

"Thanks."

She smiles slightly.

"I'll keep sharing them with you."

"Hey, maybe I can stand up and disrupt court the next time it convenes. Get tossed in here with you."

Hodgins can be very disruptive when he puts his mind to it.

"We'll get Zach to bring us cupcakes."

Angela gets up and crosses to the cell door, reaches out and lays her hand against his cheek.

"I think it's a plan.

"A terrible plan. But a plan, nonetheless."

Hodgins turns his head enough to plant a kiss in the palm of her hand.

"Hey. As long as we have a plan. Right?"

[bringonthewonder]

"As long as we have a plan," she agrees.

And then remembers who she's dealing with.

"Well, as long as we have a plan, and nothing blows up."

Hodgins laughs.

"No explosions," he promises.

"I love you. And you'll be out of here soon."
