Ohhh more fic title asks! May have stolen one of those from TayTAY....

Cat's in the Cradle

No Body, No Crime.

The Compass Points North

Oooooooooooooh oh boy. Oh. Hm. Okay, hang on.

Cat’s in the Cradle: In the wake of another frustrating whirlwind of a visit from Jack and a canceled visit from Ricky, Sharon contemplates the similarities between father and son.

No Body, No Crime: Following Billy’s death, Laura begins to collapse under the bodies that have fallen before her—starting with her mother—and the denial she protectively shrouds herself in.

The Compass Points North: Kobol’s magnetic field renders Colonial compasses useless, but Bill knows exactly where to find Laura anyway.

FF trope. The cliche hallmark-y bit where they are not friends, but forced undercover or on a trip together. Shandy

Thank you for the ask Anon!

In fact this isn’t a trope I’ve written but I would love to write it! I love all the pent up anger and spiciness between Sharon and Andy, in the Closer era anyway. During their stint in Major Crimes could be fun too…especially if, to make it more hallmark-y, they are pissed off at one another and it’s a complete misunderstanding 😊

Well, that was...

Anti-fucking-climatic.

Let me explain (lots of spoilers and not one bit of brevity):

- Okay, so the funeral was beautiful. And brief. Which is almost just as well because I could not have handled much more than that even though Sharon deserved whole episodes dedicated to mourning her. I wanted to see more familiar faces in the crowd. Pope. Brenda. Fritz. Morales. Jack. Gavin. Judge Grove. I know, I know, schedules and guest stars are hard, but it lost something without them.

- Emma Rios bit the dust. I’m not surprised. The foreshadowing was on point. Mostly, I’m glad it wasn’t Brenda. Sorry, Emma. ALSO, off topic, but homegirl is 35 and has that kind of house with a pool in LA? Man, I love subtle reminders about how underpaid my profession is. Also, this means she was prosecuting the Stroh case at 30 so damn.

- Andrea Hobbs losing her shit was all of us. That was the one moment that I nearly lost it. I wanted to hug that woman so badly.

- I did have a moment when I envisioned Taylor and Sharon greeting Emma in heaven and I had to start reciting multiplication tables to not cry.

- The wedding photos. God. Just make it stop. I want to be free of this pain. I think I said motherfucker about 50 times during these episodes and at least 10 of them were that scene. More on when I said the other 40 coming up...

- Was I the only one who disliked Sharon’s videos? I mean, I loved seeing Sharon, but...I was just like meh about them. I feel like those things are good in theory and bad in practice. It never sounds as heartfelt or genuine as an actual conversation and then that’s all you have left of your loved one. For me, it seemed very rehearsed and un-Sharon. Her last words to everyone just seemed so weird and not her. I also was a bit disappointed that Rusty got his own and no one else did. I almost feel like a letter to each person would have been more Sharon’s style (but of course not dramatic enough for TV or Duff).

- I’m glad Andy had a moment of actually showing minor anger towards Sharon.  I still think she put herself in harm’s way - #sorrynotsorry. To quote Brenda, “you didn’t have time to call it in, but you had time to take pictures?!” Sharon, you were too busy to go home even though you were sick but you had time to make videos in case you died? (And also, we later found out that Gus got the call about Sharon being in the hospital between 8pm - 9:30pm. So Sharon was working that late for that confession after being told to calm the fuck down?Great).

- I literally wanted to punch someone when Sharon called Ricky her firstborn. THEY COULDN’T EVEN GET HER POST-DEATH LEGACY VIDEO RIGHT? God, Duff, what the fuck. Do you even watch your own show?

- Okay - the Stroh case. I was almost glad to have something else to focus on instead of the grief, but what a fucking anti-climatic shit show. 

- I don’t give a damn about the hacking accomplice. I’m mostly mad no one’s caught onto him yet and the scenes where we had to watch him watch the squad annoyed the shit out of me. Are we supposed to feel bad if he dies? Because I won’t. 

- I really don’t give a good golly fuck about Stroh’s backstory. I would have, perhaps, if we’d gotten one on Sharon or Andy or even Amy or Tao or ANYONE or even Sharon AND Andy as a couple, but since we didn’t, then I don’t want nearly two hours of TV devoted to Stroh’s sociopathic past. Probably 20 of the roughly 40 remaining motherfuckers I said were directed at various parts of this storyline.

- Phillip Stroh became the “Red John” of this show (heyyy Mentalist people!), but instead of devoting seasons to developing the story line, we get it pelted at us in four episodes, on top of grief and wrapping up the series and the minor fucking relationship story lines. Joy. 

- Thank God they caught onto the whole “Gus saw Stroh at his restaurant.” That was perhaps the only redeeming thing in the case that happened.

- Chief Mason is a fucking idiot. It’s like literally everyone else in the free world is aware of the threat of Stroh BUT him. Half of the time tonight was spent with basically everyone trying to convince Mason to give out protective details. ARE YOU SERIOUS? The rest of the motherfuckers I said were devoted to Chief Mason...what an honor.

- I swear to God, the promos that ran during 24 Hours of A Christmas Story for tonight’s episodes had a part where it showed “Rusty is next” scrawled on a wall in what looked like Sharon’s condo. Or somewhere. And that did not appear once in tonight’s episodes so WTF.

- I’m over Rusty and Gus and Cami and Wes. I don’t care. DON’T CARE.

- Is Wes the guy on the motorcycle? Because Provenza clearly sent him uncover to do whatever the fuck needed to be done and I’m pretty sure that’s him and not Stroh on the bike in the episode and in the elevator with the helmet on in the promo. I don’t want Wes to be the hero of this story. I barely want Rusty to be the hero of this story and he’s been around since Day 1.

- Can we talk about how Tony Denison got fucked over? He said himself in his Facebook live that he doesn’t do much in the final 3 episodes except look in Sharon’s office and look sad and damn if that isn’t the truth. He said in the vid that most of his role lately had been about being with Sharon and since she’s gone, he has nothing to do. That’s fucking sad. Andy was a prominent figure on TC and MC and Duff reduces him to this? This is EXACTLY what we complain about with female characters. Tony Denison also deserves better. And I don’t think, from the looks of it, he’ll be a major figure to take down Stroh and that sucks. I’d love to see Andy take him out for Sharon and to protect Rusty for her dying wish.

- ALSO, Duff said we would know what Sanchez wanted to ask her AND IT WASN’T SAID TONIGHT. More lies. I can’t.

- And, finally, it KILLED me when they ran the opening credits for 6.10 and Mary’s name had been removed. Ugh.

So, in closing, I did not find tonight nearly as traumatizing as I did annoying and somewhat offensive. I want these next two episodes to be over. I need closure and good fanfiction in which Sharon does not die. And please, I need Brenda not to die so that I have something left to cling to when the final curtain falls. #PrayersforBrenda #YouCanNeverHaveTooManyAngels

112.) “I’ve never seen someone look so cute & ridiculous at the same time.” For Shandy. Please & thank you.

Also, adding your prompt to my ever-growing list of fic prompts. So, it may be a while before I get it written & posted. Lol!

Sharon had grown used to the silence in her condo and had quickly learned to value it. The silence only made the noises of her children more special when they visited. It had been an adjustment after Rusty moved in, then Andy, and now she had adjusted to the new normal in her condo, only for changes to loom in the new year as her and Andy prepared to sell it and buy a home together. It gave her one more Christmas in the condo with her family by her side.

"Ricky, if you steal one more piece of cookie dough, you won't be getting any done ones later!" she threatened, watching her sons from the corner of her eye as she rolled out the gingerbread dough and second-guessed her decision to have everyone in such a small space for the week.

The kids had gotten a hotel and Rusty had opted to stay with them, leaving Sharon and Andy alone at night. They had returned early the next morning and she had fought to get them out of the kitchen so she could tackle her baking.

"Mom," Ricky whined, hand already reaching for the bowl of dough she had foolishly left within his reach. "The dough is the best part!"

"You're going to get salmonella." She leaned over and grabbed the edge of the bowl, pulling it just out of his reach before his fingers could snatch more raw dough.

"No one gets salmonella from eating raw cookie dough." He crossed his arms and Rusty mimicked him, but Sharon only shook her head and returned to her task.

"They do," Emily corrected from across the counter. She stood on a step stool, Andy worriedly by her side. "With how much you've eaten in the past five minutes, you're probably well on you're way there."

Sharon hummed her agreement and looked up long enough to smile at her daughter.

"Hey, you've been eating some too, Mom!" Rusty leaned forward with his elbows on the counter and stared accusingly at Sharon.

"Someone has to taste it to make sure it's okay before they go in the oven." She shrugged innocently and turned around to grab the gingerbread cookie cutter.

When she turned back, she found Ricky's arm reaching out for the bowl again. She immediately gave it a gentle smack and shot him another warning glare. He obeyed and jerked his arm back with a dramatic yelp, but his hand caught the open bag of flour and knocked it over. White powder flew into the air, coating his and Rusty's arms, the counter, the cookie dough, and all down the front of Sharon's Christmas apron. She jumped back, hands held up in surrender.

The commotion made Andy and Emily look over and both burst into laughter, Ricky and Rusty soon joining in. Sharon glared at them all, but the layer of flour softened it and only made everyone laugh harder.

Andy quickly rounded the counter and grabbed a dish towel, but quickly thought better of it and instead moved to untie the apron so he could gently lift it away from her and try to limit the flour hitting the ground.

"I’ve never seen someone look so cute and ridiculous at the same time," he commented softly, his hand resting on her hip as he set the dirtied apron aside.

"You're not helping," she warned, but he could see the twitching at the corner of her lips.

"I'm not trying to." He grinned and that was enough to do her in.

She rolled her eyes but started laughing too, leaning back into Andy's arm after he fully wrapped it around her. She stared at the mess her kitchen had become, but shook her head and smiled happily.

There is something…. Insanely attractive about Sharon and Brenda Leigh reloading guns together.

#or am I just sick and horny? #mcrimes #The Closer #Lordy lord I’m gay #any chance someone has a gif of this scene bc damn

I stumbled onto an incorrect quote generator and now you're all going to spiral with me. 🤷🏻‍♀️🤷🏻‍♀️

[madamairlock]

The hottest thing Mary consistently does while acting is when her characters get really mad or intense and instead of yelling she just gets quieter and calmer. I specifically remember a scene in Major Crimes where she did it to Rusty’s mom in prison…it made me feel things.

Oh, you are so totally right. That and just existing with her hair.

2. What's your total AO3 word count?: 825,443 😅

3. What fandoms do you write for? Mostly BSG, Star Trek, and Major Crimes, but I'm diving into House of Usher and had some forays into OFMD, Star Wars, and long ago Harry Potter. We're not gonna talk about Sherlock.

4. What are your top 5 fics by kudos?

Ignoring my Tumblr Drabbles collection, they are:

ABCs of Shandy (291)

Don't Need Wings (227)

Flowers and Dinner (189)

O'Dwyer Dance Co. (186)

5. Do you respond to comments? Why or why not? I didn't used to and I honestly don't know why, but I try to respond to every comment now to at least thank them for commenting and reading!

6. What's the fic you wrote with the angstiest ending? Oooooh. That definitely Hours, when I killed off Sharon...... Is it too late to apologize for this?

7. What's the fic you wrote with the happiest ending? I think most of mine tend to have happy endings? But I suppose the happiest is Flowers and Dinner or In Among the Weeds. Hopefully Everything Professional, when we get there too.

8. Do you get hate on fics? I've gotten a few stupid comments over the years, but nothing too extreme. Just disgruntled idiots.

9. Do you write smut? If so, what kind? I am a smut queen, thank you, and I'll write almost anything and everything.

10. Do you write crossovers? What's the craziest one you've written? I'm not the hugest fan of crossovers, but I did an X-Files/Major Crimes one that still intrigues me to this day.

11. Have you ever had a fic stolen? I don't think so?

12. Have you ever had a fic translated? Nope!

13. Have you ever co-written a fic before? Just recently, actually! Thank you @lalalauraroslin!

15. What's a WIP you want to finish, but doubt you ever will? I like to think I'll finish all of my WIPs one day, thank you.

16. What are your writing strengths? I think I'm really good at plot and bringing things full circle, but also getting inside the character's heads.

17. What are your writing weaknesses? Editing, proofreading, catching errors. Finishing things.

18. Thoughts on writing dialogue in another language for a fic? I think it's a great idea and feel like maybe I've done it, but honestly I'm not sure.

19. First fandom you wrote for? Either Harry Potter or Sherlock.

20. Favourite fic you've ever written? I love all of my children equally, excuse you. Either A Sparrow's Warning or Everything Professional.

I tag: @allatariel, @bizships, @holy-ships-x-red-lips, @lalalauraroslin, and @mimine666 :D No pressure, of course.
