2. Out of Sync – post S4 Liv, redverse team dynamics - "These Rituals of Mine" by A Choir of New Believers
There are protocols to follow.
Liv isn't good at following though, unless it's a lead. It used to drive him nuts when she acted without regard, prompting lectures about how she should at least try to act like his subordinate. Sometimes she gave him hell to see if she could get away with it. Testing the boundaries and all. Linc would grin and give back as good as he got.
Now Lincoln is following her, letting her take the lead and it throws her off. He's still a stickler for rules; they're fresh in his head from retraining. Every time he gently reminds her of one she claims a mix of ignorance, irrelevance and simply knowing better because it's her world, her job, her team. Nothing about it feels right and it makes her feel like she isn't herself, despite the fact he's the one out of place. She's managed with that before though, molding herself into another Olivia Dunham because she had to. She'll manage again.
