Comments

Kate was going to make a comment about his mother's acting pursuits - and the fact that she'd seen her in action in a play not all that long ago - but decided against betraying her true fanaticism. Instead she just shrugged.

"Yeah, but where do you get ideas for..." she lowered her voice. "Murders?"

Castle leaned in when she lowered her voice - the perfect excuse to do so.

"Newspapers. Real life stories that I just.. embellish a bit."

[stormfan1117]

"You embellish a lot," she reminded him, alluding to dead prom queens in swimming pools and zombies and all of the other things he'd written about.

"So do you like... Interview actual cops? Find out stuff about the real murders that inspire you?"

"Sometimes. I've shadowed a few before. They have the most interesting stories." Castle looked her dead in the eye and gave her one of his killer smiles. "What about you, future lawyer?"

[stormfan1117]

"How about what? Have I ever shadowed a cop?" She wrinkled her nose, almost scoffing. "No way." Not that wouldn't be interested, but her dad would have a heart attack.

"I meant," he said with a smirk. "Have you ever done any shadowing? You know, to decide what kind of big power attorney you're going to be."

sorry my inbox swallowed this

"Oh yeah, sure," she replied, shrugging nonchalantly as if it was nothing of any interest whatsoever. "I had an part-time internship at my mom's firm over the summer. It was probably a little more low key than following actual cops around."

"Could it have been as fun though?"

He doubted that, unless her mom worked at The Practice.

Katie finally cracked a smile, looking up at him because he already knew the answer.

"No, probably not."
