Disclaimer: Not mine, no money made, don’t sue.

Don Eppes leant against the wall of the toilets.

Fuck. He couldn’t believe he’d let Edgerton do that to a suspect..

When did the hell did the end start justifying the means, Eppes?

And just to make matters worse, he was hard. Rock fucking hard.

His hand drifted down to the bulge in his jeans. Shit!

A noise behind him brought his head round sharply.

Edgerton lounged in the doorway, watching him. Looking tired.

Don had rarely seen the sniper with his guard down. It felt uncomfortably like spying.

The barest of smiles on Edgerton’s face told the same story.

>The barest of smiles on Edgerton’s face told the same story.<
Love this line <3

Side note: Had to google Edgerton, because I'm THAT out of Numb3rs ">.>

[fredbassett]

I'm a total Edgerton whore so you must sooooo make his acquintance!

[master-kogane.livejournal.com]

Then make me do it with pr0n! ;D

[adafrog.livejournal.com]

ooooh. I don't watch this, but like the story.

[fredbassett]

You must watch it! I got into it wholly and completely via reading the fic first, thanks to munchkin, then bought the DVDs and I was lost. Totally lost. The men are just drop-dead gorgeous, the stories are great and there is so much lovely, lovely fic.

[adafrog.livejournal.com]

I've watched a few eps, but hadn't since the first season. Will have to check it out again.

[munchkinofdoom.livejournal.com]

Don't forget to post this over at Numb3rs100!

*would love to be a fly on the wall for what happens next*

And on that note, I'm off to bed! *hugs*

[fredbassett]

I did, sweetie, about 30 seconds after you saw it here :)

It was Emma who prompted me into writing it in the first place.

mmmm, what happens next? I could be tempted, I really could, but it depends if I can keep my nerve over something longer :)

[munchkinofdoom.livejournal.com]

but it depends if I can keep my nerve over something longer :)

Says the woman whose plot bunnies chant in unison, 'Epic! Epic! Make it an epic!'... *g*

[fredbassett]

AAARRRGGGHHH!!!!

Don't mention Epic in front of the little sods, they might hear you!

[deinonychus-1.livejournal.com]

I think that Fred is trying to shoo all her epic fic bunnies in my direction. Possibly in the hope that 3Y will be even longer than it appears it's going to be.

[fredbassett]

If you recall, sweetie, I drove all the Epic Fic Bunnies into your field with tanks and rocket launchers, but shuuuush, one crept back and has brought with it just the most gorgeous possibility for a Primeval/Numb3rs crossover with a plot that might actually work, in a scenario more fitted to the US than here, involving all my favourite characters, but it needs a) time b) research c)gentle nurturing ...........

I MUST BE MAD !

[elysium1996.livejournal.com]

welcome to our lovely fandom!

I am pleased with my #2 (munchkinofdoom) for bringing you over. Must give her some kudos but she always ends up in trouble so I easily forget...

Any whoooo.. love this fic the last 2 lines are like gold.

[fredbassett]

Thanks, it was high time I came over the play properly, rather than just reading, but I had to finish a long epic first and have been a bit obsessed with that, but I am totally Numb3rs addicted as well :)

100 words is a bit scary but it sure does concentrate the mind. Glad you liked it!

[irena-adler.livejournal.com]

Yay, fred numb3rs fic! Such strong, interesting characterization in 100 words!

[fredbassett]

Thanks so much! Coming from the mistress of strong characterisation, that's an awesome compliment :)

[dana-serenity.livejournal.com]

Number only just aired over here, so I'm pretty sure I don't know Edgerton yet.

Other than that: kick-ass writing!

[fredbassett]

He's a wonderful character and soooo hot :)

Thanks.

[neur0vanity.livejournal.com]

Awesome! Very good work here.

[fredbassett]

Thanks :) It was scary making a debut in Numb3rs!

[telperion-15.livejournal.com]

Ooh, Numb3rs fic! Yay!

For rather obvious reasons, Edgerton is the character I feel I know the least, but you captured him (and Don!) really well here. Lovely.

[fredbassett]

Certainly a new field for me *grins*

Love your Don icon BTW !! Pure neck and hand porn :)

[deinonychus-1.livejournal.com]

Ooooh. I don't have a clue who Edgerton is, but Don sounded right. Interesting little drabble.

[fredbassett]

Thanks. For Edgerton you need to start with Sniper Zero, towards the end of S1, if I remember right. You'll like him, I'm sure :)

[munchkinofdoom.livejournal.com]

Lou Diamond Phillips... *drool*

I really need an Edgerton icons...

[entangled-now.livejournal.com]

Yes! Dirty spying Edgerton is made entirely of win! Filthy little drabblet, and I love it.

[fredbassett]

I must admit to being inordinately pleased with having written Numb3rs fic! I am just sooooooooo in love with this show that I've been quietly sobbing into my gin at my lack of ideas ...... oh and my lack of nerve!! But I've done it now!!! *drinks gin*

[entangled-now.livejournal.com]

I know what you mean, I felt quite accomplished when I wrote numbers fic for the first time too! It's such a nice place as it turns out!!

And like you I've been quietly adoring the show for a while without doing much about it damn scheduling mostly to blame for that! But also the fact that poking into new fandoms is always scary, and I find Charlie excruciatingly hard to write even though he's my favourite!

But now you're in the fandom! You rock! You deserve your gin!!

[fredbassett]

Well my maths teacher told me to stop wasting the examiners time, so I've no chance of tackling Charlie in anything other than the most blatent PWP scene! But the hair, oh the hair .........

*drinks gin and swoons over hair!porn*

[deinonychus-1.livejournal.com]

This is the voice of your evil subconscious, and it is telling you to write Charlie porn.

[fredbassett]

Oh help, I started with an Evil Twin, gained a Morally Amiguous Cousin, since promoted to an Evil Triplet *points finger* and now I have an Evil Subconscious.

[entangled-now.livejournal.com]

*bemoans lack of evil familial connection*

*puts more rum in the tea*

[fredbassett]

I too like run, in tea, outside tea, with other things ....

We can develop and Evil Alchoholic Hair!Porn Conjunction.

It even sounds dirty ............

[entangled-now.livejournal.com]

Evil Alchoholic Hair!Porn Conjunction.

Sounds like some sinister phase of the moon/planets...we better hurry up and write some hair!porn then I suppose!

[entangled-now.livejournal.com]

Yeah I got a C in GCSE maths, my brain just does not work that way. It's afraid of numbers! I would love to do a blatant hair!porn PWP I think I might just eventually have to throw myself into it!

*brings own rum to the party, bemoans current lack of hair!porn*

[fredbassett]

I failed O level maths twice and nevr passed, so you're more qualified to write hair!porn than me!!!!

*drinks tea with whisky and joins the bemoaning*

[entangled-now.livejournal.com]

Oh, god we're going to break mathematics if we try Charlie pov, this in no way qualifies me to write the math parts.

I think we should just both write hair!porn and if we screw up any possible maths then smart people can point and laugh at us and we will not share our alcoholic beverages!!

[fredbassett]

Good plan!!

As a sop to clever people, we will remember to remove the s from the end of maths, when talking to our transatlantic chums. GO US!

I've already trained myself to do this, I think. Since the only reason I mention maths usually has to do with Numbers! Probably the only reason I'll use the word 'vector' as well...and that totally hasn't developed an air of slight dirty-ness....

[emmademarais.livejournal.com]

*cough*Hair porn*cough*

Just in case some inspiration would poke the muse a bit... /evil grin/

[entangled-now.livejournal.com]

It's always a good day for hair!porn, and I'm always up for inspiration via fic!

[leda_speaks.livejournal.com]

Ooh, very nice! And those last two lines are *killer*!

[fredbassett]

Thanks, glad you liked it :)

[byrons-brain.livejournal.com]

Mmmmmm, I love the angst!

[fredbassett]

So do I and Don lends himself to angst so beautifully *drools* God that guy is so hot I get reduced to puddles of goo every time I watch an episode.

*wanders off to decide which ep to watch later* I need my daily Don-fix!!
