'we all walk this earth feeling we are frauds. The trick is to be grateful and hope the caper doesn't end any time soon"

Did anyone get a whiff of Casablanca at the airport scene?

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

Damn, you just made me go back and watch the ending. Again. And again. And again. Theirloveissopure.

We still have absolutely no idea why the music box is so important.

My gut instinct is that Alex provided Matt with a fake when she "returned" it.

(Yes, I DID get to watch the finale last night.)

Sometimes I trip on how happy we could be.

I've read people on TWOP describe it as brotherly, but seriously, people.

Brothers like on Supernatural?

Either that or Heroes.

Totally!

I must obey the inscrutable exhortations of my soul—Calvin and Hobbs

My gut instinct is that Alex provided Matt with a fake when she "returned" it.

I would not be surprised. And then the rest of it was a way to get Neal and Kate somewhere away from their handlers/friends so they could be killed, thus covering the BigBad's tracks.

"Cry havoc and let slip the boobs of war!" -- Miracleman

I've read people on TWOP describe it as brotherly, but seriously, people.

You mean like Wincest?

I rewatched last night trying to imagine what he would say besides "I love you" or "I can't leave you" or something similar.

I was thinking "please let me go"

Did anyone get a whiff of Casablanca at the airport scene?

No, but I did get a hint of Bodyguard. I'm a little ashamed of it, though.

My gut instinct is that Alex provided Matt with a fake when she "returned" it.

Yes, I think so. And we'll never know because the FBI seized the one that Fowler had, which means it will probably be returned to the Russians. Until they need a plot bunny in season 4.

vanguard of the socialist Hollywood liberal homosexualist agenda

I did an impromptu survey of a friend who watches White Collar, and is aware of the existence of slash but is not an active slasher.

me: what's your opinion of Neal and Peter's relationship?
him: what are my choices: a) gay b) hot c) forbidden d) YES

So... yeah. He also observed that he doesn't think there's authorial intent, and that "they're gay like hobbits are gay."

Not even directorial intent? Because, dude.

Matt Bomer was tossing around the L-word to Tim before DeKay even auditioned, if memory of the interview Jesse linked to serves.

Perhaps it's just a different estimation of the depth of friendship, but crying, really? Pleading? They have to know the subtext is rapidly subsuming the text.
