Drabble written for the [livejournal.com profile] 1_million_words word of the day prompt: Mediate.

Mediation

For all his training – and thank God for that training – Steve's never had to mediate between two parties in a dispute that is quite so sensitive or quite so important before. Because if he manages to persuade the warring parties to agree to a cessation in hostilities - or at least to an uneasy truce- then life will be bearable, whereas if he fails he'll be living in a battle zone for weeks to come.

He'll give it his best shot. If Danny and his teenage daughter need a mediator to sort things out between them, then Steve's their man.
