Summary:Rebecca lifts one perfect eyebrow. "Those aren't exactly the objections I was anticipating. You don't want to deny it?"
"That I've gone and bagged Roy Kent?" Jamie stares at her like she's mad. "I want that on the first line of me Wikipedia page."
"I don't fucking care if they think we're fucking married with fucking kids and a fucking shih tzu as long as you tell them it's fucking consensual," Roy grumbles. "Taking advantage, Jesus shitfucking Christ."
"Well." Rebecca sits down at her desk. "I really should set up a meeting with the PR team to talk some sense into you, but frankly I find this far too entertaining to stand in your way. They're waiting in the press room, go on down and tell them whatever you like." She picks up her phone. "Higgins? Bring me popcorn immediately."

Podficcer's notes (tw for animal death) [click me!]
A year ago today, we had to say goodbye to our beloved Buttercup. More commonly known as "Grandma" or "Cupper(butt)" but she was an old lady shih tzu whose heart just couldn't keep going anymore. We took her in for end of life care and got years more than we ever expected. I'd saved this one to record because I watched Ted Lasso with her & I knew I wanted to honor her. It just took me a really long time before I could summon the courage to do so. Gifting it to my very best friend who loved her almost as much as we did, who sent me the sweetest photos of her with my husband, and whose basement I recorded this in after having a cry today.

Part 2 is coming within the next few days - I had the strength to record both but not so much to edit them both for fear of getting weepy again. This story is so so cute and I chose the song in honor of the dog I talk about in my top note!
