Red Cap. So much glee.

I should've done a playbyplay of Payback, but I kept getting distracted.

Little things jumped out at me. Like, oh, Neve watching Roper and Jo being so very close together. And then Neve and Jo and dressing up--and Neve's comment about them having a great chat and such. Neve isn't jealous of Jo getting Roper. Neve's jealous of Roper getting Jo.

Swear on my grandmother's grave.

I also can't help it when I think Jo and Roper had wallporn after the club (not to mention: Burns has always had a worry that Jo and Roper would compromise each other, professionally. And he's right).

They're bad for each other, professionally.

But they do work so damned well together (Roper follows her around, smart man that he is, to keep her out of trouble).

ALSO. I now want to write Burns going home after the hospital stay and having torrid sex with his wife. Pity we've never met her. And his daughter makes them breakfast in bed, but the eggs burn and the toast is soggy, and they all end up giggly and in the food hall.

Where Neve is drinking coffee to wake up after her one-night stand with Lt. Col. Fox.

Eeeeeeeeee!! Do it!

*dances in a little circle*

And yes, Jo and Roper are bad for each other in terms of the military. If they worked in the private sector, I think things would be a bit different. Although, they do tend to get wrapped up in each other. Roper is okay when he puts Jo on a case and keeps involved focusing on following her around, but when they get distracted BY each other... er.

WHY DID THEY MAKE BURNS LIKE HER LIKE HER? ARGH. *throws up hands*

See the club scene, and LEANING AGAINST A PILLAR. Because you KNOW he was thinking about how GOOD she smelled, and how easy it would be to tilt his head just a little and nuzzle her right between neck and shoulder.

I DO NOT BELIEVE THAT HAPPENED.

Burns was actually having a mid-life crisis with his wife, because she was going through menopause. AND. She bought a motorcycle, and thus, there was Angst.

YAY ME EITHER.

And I like that theory. *pets Burns* Your wife will get over the hotflashes, dearest. Just hug her lots, mkay?

And yes. Mmm. Jo. Mmm. Roper.

OMG WALL PORN. *goes to happy place*

[lyssie.livejournal.com]

Wall porn.

And Burns kind of likes the hotflashes. ALTHOUGH, he says the sex in the middle of the day when anyone could walk into the office? Scary.

[aj.livejournal.com]

Mmm. Showerporn.

*SNORTS TEA* OMG. That's the BEST EVER.

Dude...you must write this at once. Is there anything I can do to help, because I really want to see this?

*nods firmly*

[lyssie.livejournal.com]

It will be fade-to-black fic. Also. Do we know her name? (I am tired of porn writing. I've written a titanic metric ass load, at this point)

[fallenbelle.livejournal.com]

We know whe's blonde...we saw a photo of her on the desk in I don't remember which episode...

It's possible we glimpsed her at the fancy dress ball as well I think her name might be Laura, although that could be fanon as opposed to canon.

[lyssie.livejournal.com]

Gotcha. Hrm.

*dies laughing at irony of her being named Laura*

Mom would kill him if he stepped out on her.
