Crazy Thoughts and Plot Bunnies
Hi there! I'm a long time lurker, but rarely post anywhere, so I hope I get the cut right for spoilers. Please let me know if I don't! I just had to share an idea that came to me on the drive home from the theater, as well as two plot bunnies which are looking for good homes. Sadly, I have no talent for fiction.
When we find out that Letty may be alive, I started to wonder just how that could have happened. Then it occurred to me that if Letty did in fact survive the crash she probably was in no position to fake her own death. She had to have had help. Her most likely accomplice in convincing the bad guys that she's dead? Well, that would have to be someone who was contacted right away when she was found, someone with access to the resources to help her disappear and the authority to have her declared dead without a body. In short, her FBI handler-Brian. So...has Brian known all along that Letty is alive? Does he know how to contact her? If so, how will Dom react when he finds out? Am I nuts, or is this a possibility?
Plot bunny #1: Run with the spoilery speculation under the cut. I think it could work well as slash, het, or a combo.
Plot bunny #2: I'd love to read about Brian's time at the FBI Academy. I'm pretty sure he'd have to attend, no matter how special the circumstances of his acceptance into the FBI. Surely rumors would circulate about the trainee who used to be a fugitive. How would Brian be treated? The Academy probably has specialized driving courses-what would those be like with Brian as a classmate? Would Rome, Tej or Suki have driven up to Quantico to visit?
Thanks for letting me squee to people who know what the hell I'm talking about!
