They made it perfectly fine. I love their styles and honestly, it fits to them like it was meant to be.

Blindspot posting: starting to see why people ship Patterson and Zapata. Like, I do think it’s a bit of a stretch, but it’s a stretch that I am willing to make.

This is the closest to humour I ever get. Snippet from a Blindspot fic, zapatterson, "Triboelectric" after the iconic elevator scene of course. Slightly suggestive.
~~
Tasha needs to learn to listen to her own damn advice. The leather couch in her apartment squeaks in protest as she throws herself down onto it, but she can't be bothered to care. Memories of her morning infect her brain instead. It's karma, really, how she'd pushed Patterson to move on and get back on the horse, then gets called into Reade's office only to hear that he's gotten engaged to Meg. 
Her chances have been swallowed up with the ring on Meg's finger. And it's only exactly what she deserves. She rejected Reade, when he kissed her all those years ago after the hospital. She doesn't get to take it back. Patterson's face had gone all… soft and concerned when she'd said that, told her "things change." Tasha had tried so hard not to spit the next words out, not at Patterson who could never deserve that; "and people get engaged." There's finality in that, at least the suggestion of permanence.
Her body is heavy and aching, like the air full of pressure before a storm. She wonders if that's what a body feels like when you refuse to let it feel all its feelings, hold back the tears and suck in breath after breath only never to exhale. How do you breathe again when you know you'll be alone forever, when the only person in years to want you, to think the two of you <em>just make sense</em>, finds somebody better, somebody not afraid of themselves, not too afraid of loss to commit to anything?
Her doorbell rings, startling her. But it's Patterson, with a six pack of Tasha's favourite beer.
"Thought you could use this," Patterson says, holding out the case. "I can stay or I can leave you alone, no offence taken."
"Stay," Tasha says. "Thanks for…" She takes the six pack in her hand. "Sit down, I'll get ice."
Patterson nods and goes. Tasha walks into the kitchen, fills a bowl with ice in contemplative silence and mindlessly sticks some beers in it to cool. She turns and opens her fridge, grabbing her last already cold beer to start with and wishes Patterson were just here to hang out, the morning's events having never happened, never led to her feeling so bitter.
Because, well, Tasha has never taken a more interesting elevator ride in her life. She'd stepped into the elevator of the FBI, greeted by the flustered nod of her friend as she got hit on by the scientist from upstairs. Patterson was delightfully pink, turning a shocked look over to Jack and revealing the tiniest sliver of a smile when he called her magnetic, stuttering out that the charge was actually triboelectric. Tasha had only grinned wider, both at Patterson's awkwardness and just… 
"Tribo," Patterson had explained, waving the errant dryer sheet as she spoke. "The greek term for rubbing"
And oh, Tasha knew and absolutely delighted in the humour of it. Tasha looked down so her laugh wouldn't be obvious in the space of the elevator. To her surprise, Patterson shrugged off the prospect of a date with just about the worst excuse Tasha had ever heard in all her life.
And now Tasha stands barefoot in her kitchen, thinking that talking about that elevator ride would be much more fun had it not ended in Reade's office with a ruined mood, if it didn't leave her in her apartment conjuring alternate endings to that moment before Reade's announcement, endings which would not end in her being upset, thoughts that spark little embers or like sparks on livewire in her stomach.
Tasha shakes it off, closing that box off in her head and marking it with a giant, red letter X. Patterson was, in her own way, incredibly vulnerable right now, untrusting of dating, of connecting. She'd come here as a friend. Tasha asjusts her shoulders and goes to meet Patterson in her living room, passing her the already cool beer while she pops open a lukewarm one and sticks a few ice cubes into it. Common decency or hostess code or something, not chivalry. Not… of course not. 
"Do you wanna talk about it?" Patterson asks carefully.
"What's there to talk about?" Tasha said. "I can't change it. And I don't even think I want to. I want him happy and he is. So." Tasha shrugs. "I'll be fine."
Patterson's face scrunches.  "You will be. Okay, I mean. You'll find someone else," Patterson insists. "I fully believe the right person's out there. Maybe it's just not now."
"Patterson," Tasha says as she raises an eyebrow and inclines her head. "You're the one who's magnetic. Me, not so much. No one's hitting on me in the elevator."
Patterson blushes. And then laughs. 
"Okay okay okay," she says. "Fine. But it's triboelectric. And I'm sure one day someone will hit on you in the elevator."
Tasha snorts through her nose. "Yeah, right."
Then she starts laughing. It just sounds so dirty.
"Stop laughing, no!" Patterson says. "You're worthy of love, you're attractive, funny, it'll happen if that's what you want. Whoever it is will be lucky."
"Thank you. But I'm not laughing because… but, triboelectric?" Tasha lifts an eyebrow suggestively.
Patterson blushes fiercely in response.
"I didn't think you'd fully get what I meant," Tasha leaps. "Did you...? When did you—wait, nevermind. I shouldn't ask that."
"I didn't say it was ever, you know, successful. The.. uh… anatomy has to match up."
"Oh, I know, Patterson," Tasha agrees. 
Patterson seems to stumble, her mouth not knowing what shape to move in. "I…"

9, 10, 12 and 14 for Zapata
Woo woo woo more Zapata! :D
9. Could you be roommates with this character?
It might work out haha. Iirc it was implied when she was staying with Reade that she is not so tidy, and neither am I (although I draw a big distinction between "clean" and "tidy" - I do keep things clean beneath the clutter). So at least in that sense we wouldn't drive each other up the wall. However I think we're both fairly stubborn and while easygoing about many things, when we do have an opinion I think it is An Opinion, so there is a good potential for some butting of heads lol
10. Could you be best friends with this character?
I'm not sure about that. Beyond being untidy and stubborn I don't think we have a ton in common. We like different sports, very different professional interests and expertise, etc. None of that is deal breakers for a friendship, so it's possible. But I think it would only happen if we were forced to spend enough time, maybe by a mutual friend or some project or other circumstance, to get past the initial "I don't know how to make small talk with you" phase and into appreciating each other's actual personality, values etc.
12. What's a headcanon you have for this character?
Um so, my brain is about as robust as wet spaghetti recently. I spent a few hours mulling this in the background and I am 97% sure I had an interesting headcanon for Zapata (I think around season 3ish?), but hell if I can remember what it was right now. 😅 If I remember it or think of a different one, I'll reblog again lol
14. Assign a fashion aesthetic to this character.
I will be honest I know very little about fashion. She dressed well and wore it well, at least once she joined CIA. Maybe we could call it, business chic? In seasons 1 and 2 she and Jane were both a little more on the sporty side, weren't they? But that was cool for them, too. Very different show after season 2. Professionals instead of rookies.
Send me asks!

For the meme - Tasha Zapata, 26
Thank you, Amy!!!!!!
When do you think they were being "themselves" the most?
When she was with her friends, either one on one or in a group setting. Especially if it was just her and Reade bickering or her teasing Patterson about being too nerdy in an affectionate way or having a heart to heart with her. It was in those moments that Tasha seemed to let her guard down and relax a little bit. The witty one-liners and comebacks with a naughty, almost like a child who's testing their parents, smile showed her playful side and she was only ever like that with the group.
Ask me about a character!
