Fics like just let me in (before the day is over)

Peter and Morse have accidentally moved in next-door to each other, George Fancy is annoyingly new enough for them to set their differences aside, and the "Quartet" case takes their interest. Peter shakes out a new cigarette. “Bets on this new DC taking your spot as bagman.” Morse scowls. “He won’t.” “The gaffer has a soft spot for newbies.” He hopes he doesn’t sound as jealous as he thinks he does. “I think I know Fancy from when we were both in uniform,” says Strange, unsurprisingly, because Strange knows everyone. “Nice guy.” “If he turns out to be some annoying little twit you can take him then. I’d rather suffer opera boy than some new twat.” Teaching anyone the ropes sounds like Peter’s worst idea of hell. At least Morse knows what he’s doing and does actually follow Peter’s orders, even when he doesn’t want to. “I’m right here,” says Morse. Peter shoots him his best withering glare. “I noticed, opera boy. You haven’t stopped clicking that fucking pen for two hours.” Morse lifts the pen, keeping direct eye contact, and starts to click it again.
