All White Collar, (Nearly) All the Time

this lovely spoilery post with Season 2 Episode 10 and 11 stills on
whitecollar_tv!
Also, "forging bonds" has two meanings when it comes to Neal. One is decidedly criminal and the other makes me go AWWWWWWWWWWWWWWWWWWW when it involves Peter.
I LOVE NEW MATERIAL, SO:
I love this picture! I love it so much.
I was looking at this picture and the "Forging Bonds" title and then I REALISED it could mean:
1. Neal counterfeiting bonds (as in, the financial instrument); and
2. Neal forging bonds - with special people in his life. AWWWW.
3. Neal faking close relationships with people!
I will focus on the AWWWW. LOOKIT THAT! I call it Dinner with Peter. ♥
I just really like looking at the two of them together.
Back in the early days! Peter and his Caffrey Shrine. :D
You know, I've always heard the Peter-and-Neal dialogue when they talk about the days Peter was chasing Neal with a distinctly "hee hee hee" mentality. No, seriously? With lines like these:
Peter: [speaking to the prison warden at the supermax]: "I know I spent three years of my life chasing him, and you let him walk out the front door."
Neal, to Peter: "When you were chasing me, you knew my shoe size, what time I woke up in the morning."
Peter, to Neal: "How did you stay ahead of me when I was after you? And don't say good looks and charm."
My version of
half_sleeping's
See Neal con. Con, Neal, con has always been "See Neal run. Run, Neal, run. See Peter chase. Chase, Peter, chase."
Yeah, there's a reason this stuff is behind a cut.
I think that may be Neal meeting Kate for the first time. I also thought that was a younger!Elizabeth and did a major double-take.
I love this girl! If Neal had to end up with one girl that's been currently introduced in the series, I would pick her.
She really looks a lot like Gabrielle Anwar. O.O I keep thinking, "Alex" when watching Burn Notice.
NOW FOR GRATUITOUS SHOTS OF NEAL... PAINTING. WITH HIS SHIRT ON.
(from Jeff Eastin's Twitter, that time.)
I just find these shots of Neal so much sexier than any of the shirtless ones.
I got this off Tumblr, it has no relation to the upcoming episodes.
2. Check out
wc_no_spoilers: the community name is self-explanatory, really. I am loving the
Daily Dose of White Collar, in which White Collar screenshots are paired with quotes from other TV/film/media. One of my favourites is the one that
matches Neal to a Zaphod Beeblebrox quote, and
Peter harshing Neal's buzz - seriously, Peter's relationship with Neal can be summarised as follows:
Neal: YES.
Peter: NO.
Anyway. My favourite, which Neal does not appear in, is
this one (Jones and Peter). (Okay, fine! It can be construed to be All About Neal, and it's why I love it, really.) A realllly close second is
this one, matching Peter to a Dr. Who quote.

THIS FABULOUS January 2011 SEASON 2 PROMO. WITH PREVIEWS FROM THE FLASHBACK EPISODE WE'VE ALL BEEN WAITING FOR.
1. The first time Peter arrests Neal! To borrow a quote from
tzikeh:
Arrested Neal is Arrested. :D
2. That intense look in Peter's eyes when he asks Neal, "How did you stay ahead of me when I was after you? And don't say good looks and charm."
3. Con vs sting: Oh, Peter, don't glare at Neal like that. It's only semantics.
4. Neal to Peter: "Come on, admit it, you enjoyed yourself."
Oh, Peter. That is exactly the kind of line that would fit beautifully into any Peter/Neal story. *grin*
In fact, it reminds me of this scene in canon: it's in The Portrait, when Peter and Neal are talking the day after their escapade with the Criminal of the Week's French girlfriend (and her friend). Peter says he'll tell El the truth about what happened that night.
Because of
Exquisite, I've never been able to watch that scene again without automatically slotting it into Exquisite canon, because that story fit that canon piece in so beautifully.
5. Hee! They used that lint-dusting Peter and Neal moment to close the clip.
THIS ONE:
