thespatz was right, the back half of Mag7 season 2 is awesome. The show is uneven but much smarter than it looks, and at moments it's outright great, truly gritty, or atmospheric, or heartclenchy even though it isn't wanting to go too dark and stays mosty in the escapist mode. Also some truly incredible performances, from the leads and the guest stars

That ep is so shippy, it's wonderful. I really wish there could have been more eps to follow up on Chris and Vin's epic trust issues. Are you planning to dip into the fic at all? If so, I can rec some astounding work.

I would love some recs.

I adore Chris and Mary, even while I waffle on whether they're a good idea for each other or not. Great friends, possibly a disaster as a romance. And then there's Vin. *laughs* The slash just writes itself. Luckily, this show reminds me a bit of NCIS, in the way you can pair almost anyone with anyone else and it'll come out plausible.
Recs! I haven't thrown any of my bookmarks up yet, so let's prioritize: you looking for gen, slash, het, casefiles, epics, etc, etc? If you just want to dive right into the deep end, there's a massive compendium of recs at Death Dogs (skip to the bottom for index). Variable quality and it hasn't been updated in years, but all at minimum readable and usually good.
Are you familiar with the AU/shared universe situation in the fandom? It's kinda unique.

As for authors, for Chris/Vin you cannot do wrong with true_enough of course and then maygra though she mostly writes/wrote in the ATF AU universe (it's like a parallel AU where the seven are in modern time members of the an ATF unit in Denver, Colorado). I also wouldn't miss Painted Eyes's epics, For Faith and Moved by Silent Hands.
Happy reading, bb.
