kristen999I wanted to thank ![[livejournal.com profile]](https://www.dreamwidth.org/img/external/lj-userinfo.gif)
shinysylver, powrhug, and gaffsie for their virtual B-Day gifts! Those were such pick-me ups!
esteefeewrote me a H50 gift fic "The Situation" which I adore!
neevebrodycreated this stunning “Steve McGarrett wall paper!” andsaphirablue put together this awesome H50, SPN and SGA pic spam "here!"
Also big thanks to those who PMed me and left me LJ messages!
You guys are so amazing!!!! You have no idea! I'm normally a low-key gal when it comes to this stuff, but wanted to share some of the sweetness!
I spent Friday night with my partner in crimeeverybetty where we ate Mexican, drank margaritas, and watched many episodes of Supernatural. I forgot how much I loved season four! And of course the Jensen directed eppy this week packed quite a punch this week. WOW.
We re-watched the premiere of H50 and um..saw “The Backup Plan” where we made fun of a really bad movie while enjoying the eye candy of Alex O'Loughlin.
We saw the premiere of “Person of Interest" which left me luke warm on the characters, but intrigued by the writing.
The biggest surprise was watching “Catch and release” which I thought was a heartwarming story with Jennifer Garner, Timothy Olyphant, and Kevin Smith.
There was lots of fun to be have and it was nice to check my brain at the door for a couple of days :D

Date: 2011-10-09 11:38 pm (UTC)If you're bored I had two thoughts running through my head.
I love Joe White, but if Danny ever wanted to catch up with the man and gently remind him who Steve's parnter is, that would be fun.
Or anything that involves Steve and Catherine and lazy leaves from duty.
But seriously, you don't have to!!! I'm really in a rare good mood and you've made my day by just asking!!!

Date: 2011-10-10 12:12 am (UTC)But that was before Hawaii and before Five-O. Steve is different now, lighter, more laid back, at least on the surface. He's still wound tight at his core, that will never change, but he can relax now. He takes time off when she comes into port, meets her at the ship with the other Navy spouses, even brings her flowers. Catherine doesn't know what to call this thing they're doing. Its not dating, exactly. It's not a relationship in any normal sense. She doesn't have the heart to ask him if he sees other women when she's not around and won't ask him not to. Her heart is in this thing more than she'd like and it's not that he doesn't care, it's just that he's Steve fucking McGarrett and who would say no to him?
He even has a hammock now and she's lying in it, partially shaded by palm trees and he's making something lethal and icy in the blender that he brings out to her in tumbler. It's slushy and bright green. She sips and closes her eyes. He's remembered she likes mojitos and he's somehow made them into a frozen drink. He climbs into the hammock with her, sloshing frozen mojito on her leg and then licking it off and laughing because her legs taste of sunscreen.
She might kind of be a little bit in love with him, if she let herself stop and think about it. But the thought is too heavy and drops through the light and warmth and settles at the bottom of everything where she can ignore it like a stone dropped into the ocean.
They sip their drinks and sway gently in the breeze and the world is perfect for that moment. There is no schedule to keep to, no tasks that need to be done, and no one barking orders. They'll eat and sleep when they feel like it.
All her tension has melted, all her stress fallen away leaving her easy and sweet and full of laughter. She doesn't wish to stay in this moment always, to never go back to work, because she knows this moment of paradise is only possible because of the hard work that came before it and shored it up. It's the catalyst. She doesn't fool herself that they could settle down and have children and a minivan. She doesn't want those things and she can't imagine that he does either, but she can't lie to herself and say that she doesn't ever imagine a small dark haired infant lying on his chest, peering at her with deep blue eyes. It's just biology, she tells herself, but it's another rock dropped to the bottom of the ocean.

While I never thought of them as a steady couple, I think they have this special relationship and I adore her POV throughout this. She's not naive, but is also willing to dream.
Thank you!
