Title: We Build Then We Break
Fandom: The Mentalist; Patrick Jane, Teresa Lisbon
Prompt: Five times Lisbon realized Jane was more than CBI's annoying consultant.
Five times Lisbon realized Jane was more than CBI's annoying consultant.
I - Lisbon realized Jane was more than CBI's annoying consultant, Lisbon realised that Patrick Jane was always a showman. Him and all his ‘there’s no such things as psychics’ speech, and then he went ahead and show off his accurate guesses of whatever people were thinking. How was that supposed to put across the point of ‘no psychics’ anyway? All Patrick Jane wanted was the attention, the applause. After all, Patrick Jane was once a showman.
III - Lisbon realized Jane was more than CBI's annoying consultant, Lisbon remembered that Patrick Jane was a father. It was quite easy to forget that Patrick Jane had a child once before. The way he acted, like a five year old high on sugar. It was hard to believe that he once took care of a young girl, tying her hair into pigtails, kissing her scraps and bruises, telling her bedtime stories as he tucked her in. When she found him playing with the young child in her princess pink room, she remembered that Patrick Jane had a family once, he was a husband once, he was a father once.
II - Lisbon realized Jane was more than CBI's annoying consultant, Lisbon realised that Patrick Jane a man out for blood. Every time they encountered Red John, she would remember the conversation they had. The one where he told her what his intentions for the serial killer was. He was going to cut the man open, watch him bleed to death. It made her shiver to think about it, but it made her realise that Patrick Jane was a man out for blood.
IV - Lisbon realized Jane was more than CBI's annoying consultant, Lisbon realised that Patrick Jane was a best friend. If Patrick Jane was anything, he was her best friend. Next to Cho, of course. He knew what she was thinking before she herself did. He knew she was a bad mood just by the way she walked into the office that morning. He knew exactly what to do to cheer her up. Patrick Jane was her best friend.
V - Lisbon realized Jane was more than CBI's annoying consultant, Lisbon realised that Patrick Jane was a criminal. After he dropped the blood stained knife, Patrick Jane was no more a CBI consultant of any sort; Patrick Jane was a criminal. She cuffed him, read him his rights. Procedure was followed. No exceptions for him. Patrick Jane was now a common criminal, whoever he was before was nothing now.
Feeling tired now, I cleared some of them requests for the 'Five times...' meme! :D There's more to come, no worries. All I need now is something cold. And some sleep.
