Considering he hadn't put any heating into the house he was staying in quiet yet, it'd taken a walk down into town to figure out what was different about the place. He'd been a little surprised, considering that he'd practically come to believe that this place ran on magic or some high tech alien source from the future, but that didn't mean he wasn't going to do what he could to help...

...someone didn't get to go to NYC.

To be fair, the city didn't exactly hold particularly happy memories for him. Once you've seen enough people shot in subway stations on grainy security cameras, not to mention nearly had your teammate blown up, the place just didn't have the same kind of allure.

Surprisingly, the ambulance ride hadn't really been that bad.

Either way, he had work and the store was open for what few stragglers had decided to stick around. It even had a dog, since Morgan felt it was almost cruel to make Clooney stay in that cold old house by himself.

Morgan was in, of course. And he was there for your hardware needs.

...but mostly he was doing paperwork for the BAU in between rousing bouts of Ninja Ropes. He was up to 75 yards, in fact.

Morgan was in again after yet another job. He was starting to wonder if the crazies were coming out now that the weather was a little cooler. That just led to thoughts about decomposition rates and all kinds of things he didn't want going on inside his head, which is why he decided that he was going to look at his inventory today.

...and actually make it around to see the angel, if the guy didn't walk in with his usual timing sometime today. It'd been too long and he wanted to make sure the plumbing work was holding up.

Morgan dropped his bag behind the desk and plopped unceremoniously into his chair at the back. This one... this one had been a rough one, rougher than most even if he'd come home relatively unscathed in the physical sense. He almost would have preferred a cracked rib or a gash or even a bullet wound to what he'd seen this last week.

It would heal faster.

As it was, he made a note to head to the church and see how the angel was doing, maybe try and talk to him about it a little to see if he could make sense of things. For the moment, though? He was going to make sure he had that estimate for the girl who wanted the paddock and check the inventory.

...Morgan was not a happy man. For one, he wasn't please to wake up with a full head of hair this morning. It was scratchy and distracting and it'd covered his face. For another, he wasn't a man which, all right, was the main reason why he was displeased.

Suffice to say there was quite a lot of work that needed doing that morning, psychologically and clothing-wise, and that Derek couldn't say he was comfortable but he was at least sane by the time he slipped out the door.

He did have work to do or a store to run, after all. It just meant he wasn't taking ANY video conference calls today ("my camera broke") and the usual jovial handyman... wasn't, so much.

Morgan was back at work, back at the hardware store, and pretty happy with the sketches he had up for the paddock he'd be building with the enclosure and all. Now he just had to finish the requested profile sitting on his desk and he would be good to start collecting supplies.

...he was keeping the crime scene pictures back and away from the main counter. No one needed to see that kind of thing.

Morgan was back at the store, back at work, and very much distracting himself from everything thank you very much. So if you needed the handyman, you'd have to shout or ring the bell on the counter because he was in the back workshop finishing up a trellis.

Morgan picked up the phone.

"Hey, Morgan. What's up? How you and Reid doing?"

He hadn't wanted to ask this, but with the dreams he'd been having and the falling asleep for two fricking hours apropos of nothing yesterday (around powertools, no less, he was lucky to have fingers!), he was pretty damn sure it was necessary.

"All right, I guess. But, uh, couple of things have teamed up on me lately, so I was wondering if maybe I could take about a week off. Take some leave."

"Uh... sure, Morgan. Are you all right?"

"Yeah, JJ, I'm cool. The kid's doing fine. I just need a little time to cool off."

"Okay, just... if you need anything, let us know, okay?"

"I know. And, uh, make sure my goddess doesn't worry too much about me." That got a laugh.

"I'm a miracle worker, but that is beyond even me, Morgan. Look after yourself."

After he assured her he would, he put up the sign to open the store for the day.

Morgan liked to think he was a reasonably intelligent man. He liked to think that he had a reasonable temper, that he was friendly and decent, and that he had a good understanding of how computers worked.

"Mother !@#$ing Vista!"

...Morgan's printer did not agree with him on at least two of these points.

"What do you want? You want me to sing? You can sing, and not save any of my files, but you won't recognize my printer. Great. Just great."

Morgan was back from his case to open the store Monday, not that he looked like he should be doing anything but sitting in bed and recuperating.

Suffice to say, Montana (and a particular rocky incline there) had not been kind to him this time around.

So despite bruises and bumps, a few still-healing cuts and a very uncomfortable scratch from a shelf of rock along his arm, the handyman was in. The store needed to be open and Morgan needed to be there to accept the shipment of purpleheart wood he'd ordered, which wasn't to say he'd hadn't downed what felt like half a bottle of Tylenol this morning. Hopefully, the day would be kind to him.

Morgan was going to scrub his face clear off. The hardware thing, sure, that was going well but the paperwork was going to eat him alive. That's why, you know, when all the windows on his screen closed and a new one popped up, he cursed.

And that was before the DOS window opened and the soft, child-like (passive aggressive) singing started.

...the cake is a lie, after all. )

Morgan stared at his computer for a few minutes before pressing his laptop closed and blinking a couple of times. He didn't want to move, mostly because he was 1. supremely creeped out and 2. completely confused.

He actually knocked over his chair when the phone rang. Then there was scrambling and grabbing and flipping open of his little cell before he practically slapped himself with it.

"...wheels up in how long, JJ?"

"Three hours."

"Thank God."

"Morgan? Are you all right?"

The agent eyed his laptop once more before starting to unplug the damn thing to get packed up in his bags. All right wasn't exactly the right word, but it's not like he could explain what was going on to JJ. His laptop usually didn't close all his documents (oh god, he hoped it'd saved them) (but no, it hadn't) and sing about cake.

"Yeah, just fine. See you in three."

...he was going to have to break the whole 'friends with an angel' thing to Reid soon. He didn't want to, he was pretty sure it was going to be a mess, but not saying anything at all kind of felt a little slimy to him and he figured forewarned was forearmed, right? As long as Morgan broke it to him carefully, it shouldn't be a problem if they bumped into each other somewhere.

Like the store. Or the house. Where they both had at least some reason to be on occasion.

The problem was 'how', since he'd only have one shot at this. Which was why he was muttering to himself as he worked on his laptop behind the counter.

Morgan stared at his phone.

...he was just about done with Reid's room, the angel had his room, and he knew that Murphy's Law should require that his phone ring since he'd gotten zero sleep last night.

"Yeah, you just try it."

Of course, the lack of a case to fly off on didn't help him with all the reports and paperwork and--crap, he had to call Ino today to let her know he had her design done. Ugh, it was going to be a long day.

Having gotten things settled with Reid had made Morgan considerably more comfortable about his place on the island; knowing that he'd have him in the house was a little weird even for him, but also something of a relief.

Then there'd been last night, with the 'angel' which... hey. He was still a little shaky when it came to his faith, Garcia or no, but the guy had been all right if a little weird. Definitely no creepy unsub vibes coming off of him. Of course, they'd all been fooled before but while Morgan knew he was fallible, he was pretty certain on this one; it wasn't that there hadn't been weird vibes off him, just not homicidally weird vibes which, as far as he was concerned, was all right. After all, he was going to have to get used to the weird if he was going to stick around, wasn't he?

...now to finish up his shelving design and then, figure out how to get around the Reid Effect when it came to Clooney.

Morgan was starting to wonder if he shouldn't get out sometime tonight. After all, he'd been working on the house and his casework for what seemed like, hell, seemed like an eternity. He needed a beer, some dancing, a bit of music...

Maybe meet that Constable Day from the police station, if he was lucky.

That said, he was currently in his store, half working on BAU business with his laptop behind the counter and half sketching out the designs for the shelving unit he was going to make for that Ino girl. And he still had to get clearance for the shooting range and oh yeah, drag Reid there. That boy better have remembered to bring his sidearm or Morgan was going to give him trouble.

Well, whenever the cat came out of the bag, anyway.

Morgan had spent most of the night listening to the podcasts as he did his paperwork and dealt with the house which left him with one conclusion:

Either the island and it's inhabitants was regularly exposed to hallucinogenic gas every few hours, or this place was fricking insane. His first instinct, to dismiss the craziness entirely out of hand, just didn't work when he thought about Constable Day or even Dinah and Ino. They'd all been too resigned, too earnest, Dinah especially. It had left him a lot of thinking to do before he finally got to bed, but in the end he'd come back to the store and opened up just like he'd planned to.

...which wasn't to say that his sidearm was at home. Oh no, man. His gun was staying in the same building with him at all times, preferably in the same room. He'd be wearing it if he didn't think it would scare away customers.

Morgan was damn proud of his work, since he'd spent most of the weekend when not driving friends here on fixing up the shelving, displaying the merchandise properly, and cleaning up the shop... which was why he put up a few of decorations from the Fourth of July, as well as a banner proclaiming it the 'Grand Opening!'. Of course, right below it was the more important information. There was the thought that maybe he shouldn't be so damn blatant since who was to say if Reid would be wandering the town, but he figured he wasn't really undercover, so why give a damn?

He wasn't sure if he wanted to kiss his little technical analyst or kill her as he directed the NPCs guys he'd hired off the street for the day to bring in the merchandise. It was amazing that she'd managed to get everything bought and delivered at exactly the right time and on the right day, but there was still so much to do. Thankfully, the interior had already contained most of what he'd needed to set up shop and the place was clean; repair enough old houses and you get a certain appreciation for a bug, rat, mice and feral-cat free place.

Now it was just a matter of installing the sign and getting the merchandise stowed. The guys were taking care of the latter, so the former fell to him.

"Fun times," he muttered, if only to himself, as he started up the ladder.
