So, X dragged me into Mentalist and the Cho/Jane LOVE!

[kaytee4ever]

Hello all. I've been busy procrastinating doing homework and spending time with family and watching Mentalist. I have watched Mentalist since the pilot last year but somehow I didn't pick up on the Cho/Jane vibes and omg, it's so obvious in hindsight!

X, that sneaky wicked person who makes great manips and fics and Mentalist primers seduced me into the Cho/Jane Mentalist love!

Sadly, the icon is NOT canon but a behind-the-scenes pic. But I consider it canon for how I see them! :)

Love love LOVE Cho. And Jane. And Cho/Jane is the bestest of all!



X is the reason I got pulled into Cho/Jane. I was looking at her site (she does the BEST manips and great fic) and I stumbled on her Mentalist "Primers" about the characters. She had a Jane/Cho Primer and also fic. HOOKED IMMEDITATELY! :)

My good friend, SB (Strawberry Bisque) has created a series of Jane/Cho vids (was on youtube; it's now found here)

Would you let me know what you think of it if you watch at least that first one?

I sent her some fb and she was so thrilled that someone liked her Jane/Cho since the fandom's not that big or vocal.

My fav one to date:
When the Time is Right (Jane/Cho Mentalist slash) [aka the "Oh, Jane!" vid :-p ]
