He goes out of his mind, is what happens. Slowly and completely.

Summary
It isn't a decision George has taken lightly. In fact, when it had first occurred to him, he'd brushed the thought away, trying to bury it. But the tendrils of the idea kept creeping through and, before he knew it, had firmly taken root ‘til he couldn't ignore it any longer; he's made a mistake which must be fixed.
He's forty-three, rich as Croesus, and he's been so busy getting richer for the last twenty years that he quite forgot to get married. Something that he intends to rectify as soon as possible.

Summary
She doesn’t like parties without George at her side to murmur sharp little asides to, or bring her champagne, or dance with her when the song is slow enough. She doesn't like parties where everyone looks at her like she's a three-legged puppy because her husband- her ex-husband- stays glued to the opposite side of the room as though she's got a forcefield around her.
In which Bertha and George are divorced, and make it everyone else's problem.

"Once this contract is signed, I'll have boxed Gould out of the Pacific Northwest at last." George paused, grinning; the idea of it was simply too delicious not to savor. "But to do that, I'm afraid I may need your help, my dear."
"Name it." Bertha pressed herself up onto her toes to steal a kiss before leaning back in his arms again. "You know you need only to ask."

I'm trying to get back into writing RG so I started doing these little bits of story as they're easier to manage at the moment.
Little vignettes post-S4, because at some point they need to see each other again and who knows what might happen when they do...
