Author's Note: Well, okay so the last time I posted was almost 2 years ago, and that's completely unforgivable. But I've recently ended up with more time on my hands, and am feeling a need to write - especially for In Plain Sight since it has now ended... and not in the way I wanted it to. So if anyone has a suggestion for a quote from an episode that I haven't done yet, I would love to hear them! I do intend to do a chapter for the finale, but that will be the last chapter in this story, so I am not quite ready for that one yet.
Anyway, here's another chapter. If there's anyone out there still reading this, then I hope you enjoy it.
-Death Becomes Her-
She has a new witness. One who is levelheaded, funny, smart, and no trouble whatsoever. The kind of person she would be friends with. Unfortunately, her new witness is also dying. She has been looking for information on an old witness to help keep her in the program. Information you provide for her.
What she says: "Oh, praise Jesus, you have no life."
What she means: "I am very glad you were able to remember this case. I can hardly believe the sheer amount of information you are able to keep in that brain of yours. I may tease you endlessly about it, but I am grateful you have such a remarkable memory and are so well-read. It has helped us to protect our witnesses on many occasions, and even helped save your own life when you were shot. And I also end up learning a great deal of, admittedly mostly useless, information from you. However, right now, this information is exactly what I need to help my witness, whom we both know I care about more than I should.
"On a side note, I am also genuinely glad that you have no real social life, because then I would have to get one of my own. And art shows are really only fun when you drag me to them, you geek."
You watch her walk away and turn back to your computer on which your witness's painting is still displayed. You realize it has been a while since you last went to an art show, and you both did have so much fun when you dragged her to that last one. Maybe you should see what shows are open this weekend.
