    Summary

    Lisbon thinks Jane loves the work, and she’s half-right. He loves the work, sure, but only because he loves doing the work with her. The banter, the satisfaction, the way they get to play together. He enjoys pushing the boundaries of what Lisbon is willing to do to catch criminals, and he can now admit it makes him hot to watch her brilliant brain whirl as she draws her own conclusions.

    Summary

    Jane and Lisbon have been sleeping together.

    Not dating. Not together. Not saying what it is.

    At least, that is what Lisbon keeps insisting.

    It starts after a case, the way too many dangerous things do: exhaustion, grief, adrenaline with nowhere to go, Jane at Lisbon’s apartment making tea like he has always belonged in the quiet corners of her life. One night becomes another. A stolen kiss in her kitchen becomes his jacket left over her chair, her tea cabinet rearranged by hands too careful to be casual, his body in her bed, her name in his mouth, and both of them pretending they are not building something fragile in the dark.

    To Jane, it has never been casual.

    To Lisbon, calling it casual is the only way she knows how to survive wanting him. Jane’s grief has teeth. His love comes with ghosts, revenge, vanished rooms, and a wedding ring that still catches the light. She is terrified that if she lets herself call this love, truly call it love, she will spend every morning waiting for him to disappear.

    So she makes it smaller.

    Jane lets her.

    Because some of her is better than none of her.

    Until it is not.

    Summary

    “Who are you?” She could barely hear her own words as he gave her a gentle smile, the one which reminded her of 1998 when he had saved her and refused to let her go alone. But it was somehow more affectionate if it was even possible. 

    No, Leon did not look at her like that.  Not anymore. 

    “You know who I am, Ada. I am just not from around here…” he shook his head, trying his best to explain himself.

    Or, after a job leaves Ada injured, she runs into Leon in the middle of nowhere, except this version of him is nothing like the man she remembers from Spain.

    Summary

    Another day at the office has Patrick Jane on an important investigation. What lingerie is Teresa Lisbon wearing today? That's it, that's the plot. Set in season 7. Established Jisbon.

    “Your excitement originates in the assumption that your little secret will excite me,” Jane said. Studying her, he grinned and gave a tiny nod. Something in her face must have told him he was right.

    He traced her body with his gaze, and suddenly, recognition and a different kind of excitement flickered in his eyes; an Eureka moment. Damn, he already had it. She had known it would only be a matter of time—but this fast?

    “It’s something that you bought for yourself, but that the two of us will enjoy, yes?” he asked, obviously fighting to keep his voice down.

    Teresa subtly licked her lower lip. “Maybe.”
