For once Jane was actually sitting at his desk and clicking away at his computer. The team wasn't so delusional to think that he was sitting there actually doing work. They wondered how their boss would react when she came back from her meeting with Minelli. It was highly likely that their consultant was playing solitaire just to piss Lisbon off.

They wouldn't be half wrong. Jane wasn't doing work but neither was he playing solitaire. He was in fact, looking up animal personality types. He was trying to determine what type of animal each of the team members, specifically Lisbon, would be analogous to.

It was a thought he had entertained the other day while staring at Lisbon. He seemed to be doing that a lot lately, staring at Lisbon…not entertaining certain thoughts about her.

He had been absorbed in her facial features and came to the realization that she looked very much like a cat. The high cheekbones, gleaming green eyes, and the dark almost black hair created a similar look to that of a feline. She certainly had some of the feline personality traits though not quite enough of them to satisfy his musings.

Lisbon had the ability of the feline species to stare without blinking for long periods of time and glare with disturbing malice. She also had the tendency to strike and appear without warning. But that wasn't enough, she didn't quite fit into the feline personality category. So what kind of animal was Lisbon?

The question had nagged at him all day and this morning he had decided to do a little research…
