Disclaimer: None of the characters are mine, and neither is the show.
Author's note: The episode "Throwing fire" had some great lines in it. These five drabbles explore five of these lines, each from a different character's perspective. Hope you enjoy them.
(Apologies to anyone who's read these before, but I needed to change something and couldn't get the edit feature to work, so I had to pull the whole story off and re-post it.)

Patrick happily ignored the emotional sting. So she dragged her thoughts from Sam Bosco again, focusing on the case. Learning to move on.
