Leverage isn't a procedural.
Spike: I'm not a monster. Xander: Yes! You are a monster. Vampires are monsters! They make monster movies about them! Spike: Well, yeah. Got me there.

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

Every now and then, I think I might actually be a little odd.
looks around
Where am I? Who... who are you people?

“Not dead yet!”
Not sure if this should be in here or in Cable Drama but The Glades just went a LONG way towards winning my heart with the authenticity factor in tonight's episode. They had a scene with a Cuban store keeper that was so authentic in terms of setting and dialogue, I almost brewed up a colada of café.
It's definitely growing on me.

Ion's doing S1 of Criminal Minds again, and "Derailed" was on last night. I'd forgotten about Reid's monologue about the unsub's voices and his unseen friend; talk about giving us tons of backstory on Reid without being obvious about it! Of course, they had to make sure we caught it by having Elle question him afterwards, followed by having Reid read the epigram of Einstein questioning his own sanity.
Oh, and I'm thinking about committing CM fanfic, which means I've been firmly sucked into the fandom. Thanks a lot, everyone!!

Danger is my middle name, only I spell it R. u. t. h. - Tina Belcher.
I liked the convo between Elle and Reid in the car trunk after the incident was over. When she thanked him for saving his life, and he says he totally did and it's on tape!
Anymore, I'm watching eps that I may have already seen just for the team interaction moments. I couldn't care less about the unsubs.

I did that with The Popular Kids last night, just watched it for the team, not the crime itself. I liked the Reid/Morgan discussions about nightmares resulting from the job. Although there was a continuity error--in the beginning, JJ says that it'll only take the jet 1/2 an hour to get there, but on the way home, everyone's got time to fall asleep.

Maybe they were all that exhausted?

Oh, and I forgot the whole thing with Elle calling Gideon "Dad". Even though she is no one's favorite character she does get some good interaction stuff.

Got a question on Reid's timeline for my potential fanfic. This is what I've put together for his post-high school, pre-pilot timeline:
12-16: Gets bachelors degree
16-17: Gets first PhD (both dates from the article in "Memoriam")
17-22: Gets second two PhDs and one BA/S (I'm thinking this one is the psych BA, since the others were all hard science degrees)
22: Gideon gets him into BAU
Early in his BAU career, the flashbacks for "Tabula Rasa" happen. No Gideon around, Hotch and Morgan only for team members, and Garcia was new to the BAU. Was Reid on Hotch’s team or Gideon’s? Were Hotch and the others on Gideon’s team and Gideon was just not around for those flashbacks? And did they say how long Reid had been with the BAU in the flashbacks?
