Person of Interest
Sorry for the radio silence... I don't really have a good reason, just not feeling very sociable this year (ha!), and tumbling head first into a new fandom. neery introduced me to Person of Interest, and while I don't really go for that kind of show, I must admit I really like it.

You are FAST with the watching. Leave a few for watching together! ;)
But then, I ship everything that moves with Reese. Finch, Carter, Zoe, you name it. Maybe not Fusco so much, but I could be convinced of that, too.
I you want to be convinced of that, I recommend livenudebigfoot's Harmless Observation. Her Reese is kind of even more fucked up and broken than he is on the show, but then, he does tend to let his craziest side hang out around Fusco in a way he doesn't with Finch.
I'm happily addicted, since I still have more than a dozen episodes to watch.
Lucky you! Having to wait weeks between eps is killing me.

What, no! I mean, how? ;) Honestly, stopping is not really possible right now.
But I am looking forward to showing you the shirt I made (see the icon)!

He does, doesn't he? I pity Fusco lately, because he's trying so hard to be good, and John keeps shooting him down. But then it's just that we're getting used to the characters as we're getting to know them better, and tend to like them all. Fusco did try to kill John in the beginning, after all. John is not sympathetic towards killers, ever.
Thanks for that rec. I'll take recs anytime. I did read the amnesia fic yesterday. Good stuff. ETA: I feel the need to add that I'm talking about the POI amnesia fic, not the DS ones you recced me. Those have to wait a little longer. ETA2: I am only about a quarter through the Fusco rec you gave me but have to tell you how awesome I find it. Men not talking to each other ftw. Thanks!

You know, when I was whining to Martha about how I'd probably never have anyone to watch POI with, because I didn't think you'd like it, it really didn't occur to me that I'd never have anyone to watch POI with because you like it so much you can't stop.. ;)
He does, doesn't he? I pity Fusco lately, because he's trying so hard to be good, and John keeps shooting him down.
I pity him too, but on a meta level, I think having John be constantly kind of a dick to him is the best thing the writers could do for Fusco's character. Because he did try to kill John, and probably killed other people, and he's not actually a very good person! And if everyone was nice to him, I'd actually have to remember that. But as it is, with John being a dick to him all the time even though he's trying SO HARD to do better, I can really enjoy his redemption arc.

Well, it doesn't mean that at all, does it? It just means we can choose the actual good ones to rewatch. I'm very much for rewatching.

You're right. It is painful to watch, but it makes sense. OTOH, Carter is getting on my nerves (by 1x21) because she lets herself get walked all over by Reese (that construction doesn't sound right, but you know what I mean). She is constantly threatening him that she can't let him go vigilante all over town shooting people, but she never follows through. I am angry at the writers about that, because she isn't as toothless as that.
I really love all of bigfoot's fic.I'll need to check out the rest. I've only read her first one, the one with the collar, and did not like it at all. It was ooc all over the place (and I just don't like collaring at ( ... )
