(no subject)
My calendar and DVD came! Yay! All... well, more is right with the world. Now I'm just wondering about my Microsoft Office software. Would've expected that to get here real quick. Anyway, reviving a meme, because it's a very fun one:
- Write a list of characters and number them.
- Input the number of characters into this random number generator as the maximum and generate two numbers.
- Ramble about how the corresponding pairing/partnership/general interaction would (or, indeed, wouldn't) work. Perhaps write a snippet/one-sentence fic for it if you're feeling brave.
- Repeat to your heart's content.
MM & Peter Burke
Well, it might depend on how much trouble the FBI has given MM in the past, but I think they’d get along famously...
Neal wandered out of the warehouse, still riding high on success- hands in his pockets, smirk on his face. Solving a crime was honestly better than pulling off a con, not that he’d ever tell Peter. He spotted the agent talking to someone sitting in the driver’s seat of a sleek black Ford Fairlane. Definitely not government-issue. Peter was leaning on the window sill, body at ease. Neal heard him laugh before he stepped away, and the car roared off down the street.
Frowning slightly, Neal approached, “Hey, where’s the statue?”
“Hm?” Peter turned to him, “Oh, the statue, yeah. Uh, an expert came to pick it up. For authentication.”
Neal blinked, “Peter, I know it was real, okay? You don’t need anyone else to look at it. Who was that in the car?”
“Nobody. Look, it’s procedure, okay? Don’t worry about it.”
When Neal realizes days later that he hasn’t seen the statue since that night, the memory of Peter’s small smile fills his mind’s eye.
Jack Harkness & Carlton Lassiter
Oh dear. Well, Jack would naturally flirt, and Lassiter might punch him. That’s worst case scenario somewhat. I mean, Lassiter’s probably so used to Shawn’s flirting he’s inured. Probably just roll his eyes and get on with the weird case that brought this equally weird, though undeniably charismatic man into his life.
Angua & Danny Butterman
Heh, oh, Danny would not leave her alone about the whole werewolf thing. Like, ever.
“So, will you ever turn into a wolf and not be able to turn back?”
“No.”
“Can you only be killed by a silver bullet?”
“No.”
“Have you ever eaten anyone’s gran?”
“No!”
Topher Brink & Hiro Nakamura
Nothing but comic book, television, and movie references. I’m not nearly enough of a geek to transcribe it.
Roxy Wasserman & Sam Axe
You know what? I think this happened. One night stand, maybe in the late ‘80s. Roxy leaning over Sam’s somnolent form, all set to do her succubus thing with her eyes glowing and fangs out, and- for whatever reason, Roxy probably couldn’t even say- she stops. Gives a soft smile, and slips back into bed.
Bertie Wooster & Carrot Ironfoundersson
Hee, considering Bertie’s history with policemen... He would definitely steal Carrot’s helmet, he couldn’t resist. I think Carrot would keep a sense of humor about it, though, and they’d become great friends. Probably Bertie’s first friend in uniform.
Nicholas Angel & Neal Caffrey
Oh dear, Nicholas would not like Neal AT ALL. Somebody who just gets away with things, all the time? No.
“Agent Burke, I demand to speak to your suspect.”
Peter paused to take in the fierce gleam in Inspector Angel’s eyes. The whole of the other man’s body was tensed, begging to mete out justice. “Okay, hang on just a second here. Firstly, he’s not my suspect, he’s a consultant, graciously offering his services to the FBI.”
“So he says.”
“I feel compelled to mention the twelfth century relic Mister Caffrey played a critical role in returning to Sandford Abbey this afternoon.”
That made Angel deflate slightly, “That’s as may be. But he’s got other crimes to answer for.”
Peter’s eyebrows lifted, “Does he? They’re not in his file. And, trust me, I’d know.”
A slightly more tempered determination came over Angel, “Would you like to, Agent Burke? It shouldn’t take long.”
Peter considered, and stepped out of the way, “Sure. Have at it, Inspector.”
Badger & Adelle DeWitt
Assuming you bumped Dollhouse up to Firefly’s time, um, maybe? Adelle could have a wild past in her- you don’t get to be a badass HBIC by staying in your room all day.
