Fun to see Pros reviews coming up in my flist again...

I'm seeing a pattern of hot-headed young men ignoring directives suggestions and being forgiven because they're successful. Wonder if there are stories where they screw up doing that...
- Bodie in Where the Jungle Ends, where he doesn't tell Cowley about Benny's family and they go after him alone - and he gets away (Bodie held to account)
- both of them in Rogue, when they lie to Cowley about being alone (cos it's only Barry Martin) and Doyle is told off for it in no uncertain terms
- Bodie in Runner where he goes in overly-heavy-handed, despite Cowley's doubts, to question old Organisation members, and Cowley lets them go (though he's not strictly going against orders here, more against Cowley's thoughts/advice)
- when they go and question Coogan's girlfriend in The Rack, despite surely knowing it'd be against legal procedure, and Cowley tells them both off ( ... )

That's a good list there - my angsty soul desires serious consequences, and plot and maybe some comfort sex. *g* I could always ask at Prosfinder, of course.

I guess it also depends what time of the day they were filming too, re the stubble. Not that I'm seriously complaining, but I hope that their girl-friends didn't get too much beard-burn.
