Joss Carter was tired of being alone, and also of boring blind dates cooked up by her family or friends. Joss was looking for someone who would love her for who she was, not who they wanted her to be. John Reese had always found Joss devastatingly beautiful, and now he had to find a way to get close to her...to protect her. His idea might work, but it could also destroy him... A/U

Joss Carter had been through a lot in her young life, but she came through smarter and stronger. A new product she's developed, however, has put her life in danger. John Reese received a beautiful new number, but the threat to Joss Carter may not be all there is. The Tapestry of their lives has been woven in time, but will it fray in the face of danger, or grow stronger. A/U

Elena Cassidy is in the park one day, playing with her dog and minding her own business, when a couple walks up and looses their dog on her. And that's just the first of many encounters she has with John, Harold, and Bear. Reese/OC slow burn. Episode tags and missing scenes. Updates every Sunday.

For 31 Sundays, I'll be posting a drabble here in this initial collection - some will be as is, while others have been revised, expanded and/or updated with notes regarding what inspired them, etc. To kick things off, here's a new drabble, inspired by an e-card.

Joss Carter was on top of the world with a great job, a great son, and a new man in her life until it all came crashing down in an instant. John Warren had started a new life with a wonderful woman...and a new name until a mysterious stranger turns his world upside down. A/U

P2 is the continuation of the series that started with Saving the Saviors, followed by Pointillist. In this third book, we join our Team just after the shoot-out. Greer's Team is gone, and Harold's Team is hurting. After some much needed time to recover, events take them out of Manhattan, to chase Greer wherever he tries to hide.

John Reese doesn't particularly believe in honesty. Lies of omission aren't lies, they're just omissions. Lies can be white. Assumptions don't always have to be corrected. Honesty is important, but it doesn't have to be absolute. And, finally, knowing about someone isn't the same thing as knowing someone. All the things, important or not, that John never said.

Shaw has stopped working for the Machine, but finds herself lured back in by Detective Fusco. She doesn't know where it will lead, but on the way she gets to deal with the drama she'd hope to leave in the past.

When Brandi Finch's mother dies she goes to live with her Uncle Harold Finch. This is a reboot of "The Lost Child" where she lives with Finch from the pilot to now. Rating will stay the same on account of violence.

The Machine makes a friend. [POV: The Machine. Set in S2e02: The Contingency]

La Machine envoie un numéro. Ils le reçoivent, ils enquêtent, ils passent entre les mailles de Samaritain, ils sauvent des vies. Ce schéma, ils le connaissent et y sont rodés. Mais que peuvent-ils faire quand ils sont unanimes sur le fait que leur nouveau numéro désigne quelqu'un qui n'existe pas ?

Everyone lives. No one (except Samaritan and all its truly evil associates) dies. And Root and Shaw will have a LOT of kissing to catch up on.

Joss Carter interviews Henry Peck, meets Grace Hendricks and finds out about the Machine. [Updated on 7th Dec 2021, with a fix it for 3.09: The Crossing in this 'verse]

Shaw and Root are arrested on a minor weapons charge; Shaw is hostile and they put her in with Root to 'manage' her.

When Evelyn decides that five years of square-dancing with John is enough, she reveals her plans for her daughter Joss's future in the place she feels safest in the world; Summerville, South Carolina. Rated T for adult humor and sexuality. Probably contains shade-throwing.

John Reese gave people second chances everyday, but never thought he deserved one until a recent case gave him new hope. Joss Carter believed in second chances, too, but would she be willing to give someone like John Reese with such a dark past a second chance...which included her? Slightly A/U

POI & Daemons Admitting this now. This is a mess and I don't really know why I wrote this but here you go for anyone who wants to read it.

AU - No Machine - No Numbers - No Finch & Reese - A little ficlet I imagined of Shaw and Root if they met when Shaw was still an intern. Control is everything to Shaw. If she can't fit into the world, then she will control it, mold her life and every situation to fit her needs. Only, Root isn't so moldable. And she likes to be in control, too.

John Reese was a Fugitive, plain and simple. To even think that he could have a life was wishful thinking. Especially when he wanted a life with the very detective that was hunting him down. Detective Joss Carter was determined to find the Man In A Suit who had caught her interest from the moment she had met him as a drunken bum. Now he captured her imagination and her dreams...

Set in the Hogwarts/HP universe: Win the game, get the girl. They'll live happily ever after. The End. That's how most movies work, right? Well... After a big win against Martine's posse, Quidditch captain Sameen Shaw, surrounded by said friends, kisses the girl she'd been pretending to be annoyed of for so long. And now she has to face the consequences.

The small woman in the fancy suit says to call her "Finch," and proves to be quite the linguist. "Mystery" in that Reese is trying to figure her out. Basically a montage following the S1 sequence of events. Prequel to "A Conversation with Miss Kittiwake" (see note at the end of that fic for info about borrowing my female Finch).

Struggling to complete the mission despite the limitations of his body and mind, Harold gets a little advice from the Machine. Set near the very end of the series. Also a bit of a message to my readers.

Five scenes with Bear interacting with Team Machine.

Shaw's been downhearted baby, ever since the day Root left...

The New Numbers that the machine has given to Finch, John, Shaw, and Root belong to the kids of an orphanage and their caregiver. Who is a danger to them? And why? P.s. I own nothing
