Fics like paws and claws

It’s not that Sasha doesn’t love what he does, and that he doesn’t look forward to coming back to work, it’s just that everything is so dramatic on Monday mornings. Burky’s on the phone when Sasha walks through the door, and turns a pleading look on Sasha that Sasha ignores as he passes straight through the reception area and into the back. There’s half a pot of coffee left for Sasha to avail himself of before the meeting, which means he’s not the last one to arrive, but a lot of the regular weekday crew is there before him. Sasha is finishing pouring his cup of coffee when Dr. Backstrom comes through the doors. “It’s Monday,” he says by way of greeting, and Sasha nods, sipping his cup of coffee. He salutes Sasha with his travel mug as he heads into the office he and Sasha share. Sasha trails after him. “One morning we’re going to come in here and he’s going to be curled up under his desk crying.”
