Oh, God, he's goin' to sack me. Worse, he's goin' to make me spell out the reasons he goin' to sack me. Right before I find out he's gassed the room with retcon and... Shut up, Cooper, just answer the bloody question, yeah?
Holding her breath, Gwen slid the door shut and stood very still, wondering if she stood still long enough he might just forget she was there.
Or not. She might be a bit plain - well, not plain, that wasn't really fair, she thought idly - but she wasn't that forgettable. Unfortunately.
"Listen, Jack, I know I screwed up what with the rock and all of that but I think I made good in the end. I sorted it, didn't I? I feel really bad about all that happened, but it's not as if the damn rock had a warning sign or anythin'. I just really think you should give me another chance before you fire me."
The words spilled out of her mouth and she felt like she was trembling, which pissed her off more than anything else. But if he was planning on firing her, well, she had no intention of going down without a fight.
