yunitsa: Sexby and Angelica from The Devil's Whore; 17th c. woman in dark cloak with man in hat behind her (tatiana)
[personal profile] yunitsa
Just a little something I wrote for myself last night, as a bedtime story - shamelessly fluffy, and only slightly more romantic than the episode itself, I swear to God. They are being so good to us. Also, I've felt for ages that this fandom needed curtainfic, and this was the closest I could get.

Shelter (850 words) by faviconyunitsa
Chapters: 1/1
Fandom: Person of Interest (TV)
Rating: General Audiences
Warning: No Archive Warnings Apply
Relationships: Harold Finch/John Reese
Summary: In which they don't get a beer. Coda to 2x03.

Incidentally, the culture of this fandom on AO3 seems to be for kudos to the exclusion of comments, which makes me a bit sad - I always enjoy getting the kudos in my mailbox, but this is my first time regularly writing fic in ages, and I've fallen so in love with this show that I'd love to have someone actually talk to me about it. But just the fact that I'm writing a bit is nice.

I'm really not qualified to write comments yet, but it's a lovely little story! And I'm glad that they continue to have FEELINGS about each other; I've reached the point where it's becoming evident. Episode... 1x14, maybe? is what I'm on, but as you said it got really clear at about 10, The One Where Reese Gets Shot, and Finch is driving, driving through the night... it's quite satisfying, and you want to hug him, but he wouldn't let you.

Aww, thank you so much!

Season 2 has been all about the FEELINGS so far, and now I love that it took them this long, because it feels earned in way a typical "look! we have bromance!" relationship wouldn't. Finch's face while he's driving to the rescue...! I'm convinced that's why Carter lets them go, because the Guy in the Suit can't be all bad if someone cares about him that much.

I read the other two while I was at it (I think I've been spoiled enough by this point, and it was great to see Root turn up in one of the eps I watched last night) and they're gorgeous, especially the one where Reese is a princess. :) I do like how you manage to get into his head, which I'm sure really contains a huge number of thoughts and feelings that never show on his face. He's actually a character meant for novels rather than for television, I think. Finch would work equally well for both, somehow.

Yay, thank you! Reese is totally a princess :D I was rather surprised at how everything I initially wanted to write was coming out from his POV, but now that we've established that he's totally smitten, I guess it was time to switch over to Finch.

You could say that Reese's inscrutability is partly because Jim Caviezel isn't that good of an actor, but he's been doing some quite subtle things as well as being Batman (that smile when Finch gives him the menu in the diner!). I think Reese is just really better at throwing people out of windows than feelings.

Shh, we're not supposed to notice that. :) Actually, I note that his character portrayal in the flashbacks is subtly different - sometimes more open, certainly more vulnerable and reactive. And I do like when he smiles.
