Who's the Ray? Reflexively, I was wondering if it was Pros/DS.

Well not canonically, no, but this is transformative fiction.

Ray is Doyle's first name. It's rarely used in the series, but the fanfic writers like it-- from what I've read, which I freely admit is a fairly small sampling.

Cats to become a rabbit should gather immediately now here
Since I don't know Pros-- I was wondering if it was Dawson's Creek/Due South!

The only fictional Bodie I knew of was Lukas Haas' half-witted kid sidekick character from Solarbabies. I believe my brain went to a scarier place than anyone else's.

Depending on the Ray (can we have a war?) Bodie/Ray is a nice place indeed.
How weird to not use Bodie's first name, then.

Always Anti-fascist!
There's one in the Wire too(I believe it's his first name, but in a show with people named Wee-Bey, Bird, and Stinkum, who knows?) That's a funny visual.

What, you have a problem with futuristic dystopia underaged rollerskate sex?
IOW: your scary place is my scary place, now with added absurdity!
I've never seen an instant of the Professionals, but was exposed to their fanfic through academic studies. It's very difficult for me to give a shit about fanfic, or indeed the intellectual point being proved via fanfic, when I have no idea who the characters are. So in my brain, I called them Starsky and Hutch. Which, I gather, they basically are, with fewer Miranda rights to deal with, and possibly cooler cars.

Now that is a canon thing-- Bodie has first names about as long as your arm (all names of kings or princes or something-- there was a time when I could have quoted them, but I didn't spend long in the fandom, and that time has passed)-- but he hates using them. Everyone calls him 'Bodie', except in very occassional (usually formal) circumstances-- there's a very memorable episode in which Bodie and Doyle are accused of killing a suspect who died while in their custody. At their trial-- which is held in the room where the man died-- Bodie is forced to give all his names.
ETA: Google is a beautiful thing. His full name is William Andrew Philip Bodie.

I don't remember (and it's been a while) Doyle being called anything other than Doyle.
If I had some free time, I'd haul out the DVDs and refresh my memory ..
