The Fate of the Earth Depends On It, Probably by![[livejournal.com profile]](https://www.dreamwidth.org/img/external/lj-userinfo.gif)

Okay, so technically it's a crossover with Black Books, and it's all in the Black Books style, but this story's a hoot.
“It’s nearly dinner time,” Bernard hissed. “I’m out of fags, I haven’t had my tea, there are people trying to buy books and being cheerful about it and…” He sucked in his breath, as if what he had to say was so horrible he had to work up to it: “There’s an American in the shop.”
Oh, God. If there was something Bernard detested more than the internet, it was Americans. They were only slightly below children on the all-time hate list. Only one thing could be worse:
“It’s not an American child, is it?”
“No.” Bernard’s lip curled. “It’s a man. All flashy accent and Mormon teeth.”
