Susie opened Tumblr on her phone as surreptitiously as she could. A new DM! From RizzoliOnIsles! Yes! She pumped her fist, then looked around to make sure no one noticed how excited she was. She propped herself against a wall, trying to steady her heartbeat. 'I'll be there' was all it said.
RizzlesCon was next week, and Susie was more than ready for it. She hadn't told Doctor Isles or Detective Rizzoli about the fanbase their documentary had garnered for itself, that everyone (mostly sapphists, for some reason) had been watching with baited breath to see if they'd ever - finally - kiss. Susie had been working on a fic - an explicit fic - with RizzoliOnIsles, and she knew it was only a momentary infatuation, but she couldn't help anticipating what could be the start of something great. She'd been talking with her for months - years now, and she'd always wanted to meet her to see if the chemistry carried over.
RizzoliOnIsles was awesome, even if she thought Jane was the top. She clearly wasn't; Maura was obviously the more dominant one in their relationship. But then, Susie worked with them. She was struck by a moment of anxiety; she hadn't mentioned she worked at BPD, and she wondered if RizzoliOnIsles would be mad that she hadn't disclosed that she not only know both Rizzoli and Isles personally, but had also appeared on the show. Only sometimes, and maybe she'd been in the background enough that RizzoliOnIsles wouldn't notice. No, she'd mentioned how cute she thought Susie Chang was, and it always made her smile.
Two sleeps to go - not that she was going to sleep until they put this murder to bed. She slid her phone away with a little smile and went back to her microscope.
Susie adjusted her RizzleSwanQueen tag nervously. She'd heard that some of the people from BPD would be there - other than her. Once she found RizzoliOnIsles, she'd have to discard her nametag - if Jane ever found out she'd written the one about Maura putting Jane on a literal leash in the station, or the one where Susie walked in on them going at it and was invited to join in, or the one where Jane got absolutely railed on the autopsy table - well, her life wouldn't be worth living.
Oh God. Doctor Isles. She looked pale, and Susie tried to hide her tag, but it was too late. She'd seen it.
She hadn't thought about what would happen if Maura found out who she was, but she was the scarier of the two. Not that Susie had been mean about it, but she'd described her boss's nude body in excruciating detail. Accurately too, since she'd seen it at work. Multiple times.
"You're RizzleSwanQueen?" Maura asked, and Susie blushed, looking down, wondering how she'd ever find another job without a reference. Her eyes caught on Maura's name tag. Wait.
Wait.
RizzoliOnIsles.
Holy.
Holy Motherfu-
Holy Moly.
Maura gave her a shy smile, and Susie thought back over the cyber sessions they'd had where she'd role played Maura and - what? Maura had role played Jane? The virtual things they'd done to each other. Susie blushed again, but Maura just reached out a hand and took Susie's.
Jane strode on stage, all confidence and charisma.
"Okay, I've just had a crash course in Rizzles fanfic, and you're all sick little freaks. And I couldn't be in better company!"
Susie's heart sank. She loved Maura - who didn't - but she loved Maura and Jane together. And if Maura was RizzoliOnIsles, and Jane knew about the fic, the smut, all the kinky things Maura and Susie wrote about wanting to do with Jane - then -
Jane jumped off the stage into a crowd of cheering lesbians and crowd-surfed her way over to Susie and Maura.
"Oh. So you're RizzleSwanQueen. Maura and I share a Tumblr account," Jane told Susie with an arched brow, before kissing Maura thoroughly.
The crowd went wild, and Susie had a feeling that things might work out after all.
