This is freaking awesome. I really love this 'verse. I adore the relationship you've written between Neal and Jones, and to add Mozzie - THIS side of Mozzie - is perfect. Moz may be quirky and conspiracy theory-driven, and orderline alcoholic, but he does have depths of feeling and a seriousness that we rarely see, and you've brought that out wonderfully. Your last line says everything.

Thanks so much for posting this.

I have been wanting to write the scene where Jones confesses how much Neal means to him to Moz for MONTHS, and I also realized there wasn't all that much Moz in this 'verse either, so I combined those two things to write this tag. I'm so happy it worked for you.

Mother hen Moz is absolutely perfect for so many reasons.

“If either of us had hair, it’d be white,” Moz agrees. <-- Love this line!!

Moz helping Jones for at least some selfish reasons makes sense, like him letting Ellen win at cards for dirt on Neal :)

The last line, awww!!

Loved this :D

Aw thanks! That hair line was one of those happy things that just occur in your brain and you laugh out loud at the ridonk, but I had to use it

Freakin' awesome barely begins to scratch the surface of my feelings for this fic. First, to wake up and find a timestamp for my favorite 'verse, and then find it to be THE timestamp I didn't know I was needing, is made of utter win. And even better, that it's told from Mozzie's POV, so unexpected in this 'verse.

I somehow get the feeling the Moz arranged for Doctor Oncology and his entire staff to be out, just so Clinton could have a place to sleep without leaving the hospital.

Beautiful, just beautiful.

Thanks! I've been wanting to write this for ages (and parts of it were already a WIP), so Ficmas was the perfect excuse!

Suitlings - always love new terms for members of the establishment.
Mozzie actually paying for his own booze.

[rabidchild]

Moz can and will pay for his own booze, of course, but it's much more fun when he doesn't

This was just chock full of win. I love this 'verse and this was an amazing addition.

You wrote Mozzie perfectly. His voice, his words, 'suitlings' 'staple gun' his version of Kate, his protectiveness toward Neal.

This is a beautiful gem.

Thanks so much!
