A/N: Sorry this took so long. Life has a way of making me procrastinate. But at least I got this done before the next new episode?
Anyone else excited that they'll be seven episodes in a row?
If you're still reading, thanks for putting up with me. I hope this was worth the wait.
The Black Hole's Look at "The Blackout in the Blizzard"
Sid watched as the fanfic bunnies formed another conga line and wove their way around the tables, chanting "They set a date! They set a date!" He looked at the patrons of the mysterious place known as The Black Hole and saw they had finally gotten tired of the celebrations. So he clapped his hands. "Guys! Guys!"
He had ro raise his voice to get the furry creatures' attention. Once he had it, he said, "We still have to review the episode, okay? So give it a rest."
"Yeah," Sully said, rubbing his temples. "I'm getting a headache."
"But it IS exciting," Cam pointed out. "I mean, it looks like it's not a question IF Booth and Brennan will get together, but when."
The bunnies cheered Cam's statement and would've started up the conga line again if Sid hadn't glared at them. "Bunnies! Come on, people need food and drink. Hop to it."
With a groan, the bunnies came to the bar and picked up the trays that Sid had prepared. As they passed around food and drink, Sid said, "Okay. Bookwormlady is happy with that last scene as well, but there was other good stuff too. Who wants to go first?"
Michael spoke up from the large table in the back. "The science here was quite interesting. The ways the team found to get around no electricity were fascinating."
David nodded. "I wonder if it was all valid? It all looked pretty cool."
"Well, that was all well and good," Katherine said. "But can we talk a minute about Hodgins and Angela? I teared up when Hodgins started to cry. It was such a moving scene."
All the women (and a couple of the men) reached for tissues while they nodded. "I thought their last scene together was well done," Rebecca sniffed. "I like how Hodgins convinced Angela to take a positive outlook."
"Hodgela was great in this episode," Peyton agreed, "but there was also a lot of B/B as well. Stuck in that elevator, they had to deal with some issues."
"Seeley still seems pretty mad," Hannah said from her place at the bar. She stared into her pink lemonade. "He doesn't even want to hear my name."
The black angst bunny pat her on the back as he went by. "Well," Hacker said, "you did kind of break his heart."
"Sweets really needs to learn when to leave something alone," Mark pointed out as he picked up a slice of mushroom pizza. "Booth really didn't want to talk about it. And Temperance backed him up."
"They did try to face their feelings," Tessa said. "You can tell they want to be together, but it's scary for them to take that next step."
"What about the story behind the chairs?" Jared asked. "I mean, yeah, they didn't even mention me, which I don't get, but it was a really touching story about Seeley and our dad."
"They packed a lot in this episode," Tessa said.
"Anyone have anything to say about the case?" Sid asked as he wiped down the bar.
"There was a case?" Sully quipped.
"The disease made for a great ticking clock," Cam said. "Put us under the gun."
"So overall, another good episode, right?" Sid asked.
Everyone nodded. Rebecca held up a hand. "Before we close this out, anyone have a clue at what dates they wrote?"
People shook their heads. They knew the date in question was the subject of many a fanfic already, but no one was willing to go out on a limb.
"Seeley totally peeked, though," Jared grinned.
"Totally," Sully agreed. "I wonder how they'll interact in this next episode?"
"One way to find out," Sid grinned. "Okay, that's a wrap for now."
Some people went back to their food, while others stood and stretched. Sully was one of the latter. "You gonna go out, Hannah?" he asked.
She shook her head. "The fanfic writers are still after me. I might never leave."
Sully made a sympathetic noise. "It'll pass. Look at me – I can venture out now and then, without a problem. Just give 'em time."
Hannah sighed. She had no choice but to do as Sully suggested.
But how long would it take?
