Fandom: Jeeves & Wooster
Rating: Gen
Notes: Bertie waxes philosophic after an unplanned dip in a pond.
“What does that brainy chap, you know, the one who isn’t on your Christmas card list, say about abysses, Jeeves?”
“I shouldn’t care to repeat any wisdom attributed to Nietzsche, sir.”
“Well, if you substitute ‘Totleigh Pond’ for abyss, that about sums up my predic. I looked into it, too far, it looked into me, too deep, and—plop!— I went. I say, abysses are hell on the brogues, what?”
“Gentlemen’s footwear is rarely suited to complete submersion in water, sir. Shall I help you remove them?”
“I think you’ll have to. I’ll pull from my end, you from yours. On three.”
