B99 + Bartender AU: in which Amy makes a habit of ranting to the bartender (about her terrible day, her last awful date, the patriarchy), and Jake takes it upon himself to try to make her smile.

“What’ll it be?”
“Ugh, surprise me. I’m drinking to forget.”
“Bad break up?”
“I got an 89 on an exam.” 

That’s how it starts. Jake’s so intrigued, and the bar’s empty enough, that he sticks around to chat. He tells himself it’s just for a couple minutes, just enough to find out if this girl is for real. – Turns out she is, and turns out he’s smitten.

the only proof that i need is you on ao3 by elsaclack is this exact thing
