Okay, so Tamuril2 gave me some prompts a long time ago, and one of them was to do a crossover with MacGyver and Person of Interest! I finally got around to writing it, and it is done! All the chapters will be posted basically at once, let me know what you think!

Tamuril2 and I also thought that it would be cool to have the story told from both perspectives, so the first few chapters will be from Mac's perspective, then the last few will be from John's :)

Okay, so for you MacGyver fans who don't know POI, only-some-loser asked for a brief explanation of what it was, and I just thought I'd also include it in this if you really want to read this story so you can keep up :)

There are several Characters to start out with:

John Reese: Ex-CIA agent, presumed dead by the gov't, very good at hand-to-hand combat, doesn't like killing people, but since he kinda has to use a gun, he shoots out people's knees instead of killing them once he starts working with Finch.

Harold Finch: Eccentric Billionaire, also presumed dead, very good hacker

Shaw: Ex-gov't agent, sociopath

Detective Carter: NYPD Homicide Det.

Detective Fusco: NYPD Homicide Det.

So the basic plot is Harold Finch created a machine that basically listens in on all conversations through any electronic device (so basically what everyone is scared and convinced the NSA does), and he programmed the machine to detect the probability of violence against someone by listening to conversations, stuff like that, etc. The Government uses The Machine to detect national threats, like terrorism and such, but anything else was disregarded, deemed irrelevant. Except Finch's conscience wouldn't let him live with the fact that innocent people were dying/getting hurt and he might have been able to do something to stop it, so he recruited John Reese, who is presumed dead to help him save people.

Basically what happens when The Machine deems something as a potential "irrelevant" case, it contacts Finch and gives him a Social Security number, but nothing else. Finch and John don't know if the person is the perpetrator or the victim, so they follow them around until they can decide which one they are. Detective Carter was trying to catch John, but when she found out what he and Finch were doing, she felt like she couldn't bring them in (Okay, that's a really bad explanation of that, but it's kinda complicated to explain), and Detective Fusco was working with a group of dirty cops that tried to have Reese killed, but Fusco really didn't have his heart in it, so John basically blackmails Fusco into helping he and Finch for a little while, then Fusco realizes he likes it when he helps prevent crimes instead of trying to solve the murder cases.

Reese takes on a lot of different roles and jobs to get him closer to their numbers.

Shaw comes in and she's basically a sociopath, but she's basically like a female version of John.

So they run around NY and find whoever The Machine tells them to find, and they try to prevent a crime from happening.

They also have a dog named Bear, and John is known as "The Man in the Suit," since he's basically a vigilante, but no one can get a good picture of his face.

If there are any POI fans out there who don't know what/who MacGyver and friends are, let me explain

MacGyver: In the reboot, he's former EOD for the army, now he works for a covert government organization called the Phoenix Foundation. It's cover is a government think-tank, but they're really spies basically. MacGyver takes ordinary objects around him and turns them into weapons that don't kill, because he doesn't like it when people die, and he doesn't like using guns

Jack Dalton: Mac's best friend, partner, and bodyguard basically. Also works for the Phoenix Foundation

Patricia Thornton: Director of the Phoenix Foundation, queen of spies and totally amazing. Cares very much for her team. *coughcoughwriterscoughcough*

So there you have it! Let me know what you think!
