A few Without a Trace links for [livejournal.com profile] carolinecrane

Yay! [livejournal.com profile] carolinecrane has seen Danny/Martin! Woo, a chance to pimp one of my fave rare fandoms! Yeah, it is a wee little fandom, but it does exist. There's the requisite Yahoo group, and there are a few (very few) authors writing Danny/Martin, though there isn't anyone writing long, plotty stuff yet, just little fluff pieces and vignettes. [livejournal.com profile] sarahchica has a few on her site (a few Nick/Greg ones, too)- it's a pity she's redone her layout again, actually, since the last one was Danny/Martin and very snazzy. Perpetual Motion has a few ficlets too, though her site hasn't kept up with her list postings, so there will be more (they're the fluffiest of fluff, though, and I don't know how you feel about that). Julian Lee has just started writing WaT- her "Secrets Vignette" done for [livejournal.com profile] therealjae's challenge is good, and I assume her next update will include the series she just posted to the list, three little vignettes that intersect with Perpetual Motion's "Just" series. Calysta Rose started a story (continued here, with cliffhanger) back in January, but I don't know if she ever finished it (and it's been so long since I read it, I forget what it was like. Oh well). And I have a few of [livejournal.com profile] lucy_fic's tagged in my fic memories- though again, I forget what they are. I suppose I should reread before posting links, but I have more enthusiasm than patience right now.

Also, keep an eye out for the repeat of "Are You Now or Have You Ever Been"- it's a good episode anyway, but it has the slashiest, sweetest scene at the end. I was all a-squee back when I first saw it and had to post the dialogue, but it was the acting that made the scene so great. You should see it (there are dialogue spoilers in that link, but no real, major plot ones- depends on your spoiler fear, I guess). "Victory for Humanity" (repeats on 7/17) has a great D/M dialogue scene too- just a little throw-away thing, but it has the same flirty, comfortable vibe that Nick and Greg have.

Hm, I wonder if I have anything else bookmarked? Off to hunt some more...

They lean in towards each other when they're fighting, flirting or just chatting. They don't seem to have any personal space issues, like most guys- they're always rightontop of each other. Their eyes are never far from each other.

Yes. And the camera helps with that. I know that during AYNOHYEB there's a lot of Danny watching Martin, when they're around the tape at the beginning and especially at the end. There are also times when one of them is just LOOKING at the other.

I hope, hopehope, that CBS is doing this on purpose. There's just something there, something that's missing with a lot of on screen couples. And if you watch Sam and Jack, you can see their chemistry, too. It's so subtle that it makes me hope that there's something between Danny and Martin.

but I'm never that physically conscious of them. That's behavior for lovers.

Yes! Or people who are attracted to each other and aren't quite aware of it. Which works for me, up until AYNOHYEB. Which, for me, is a defining Danny/Martin episode. There are things earlier, but the chemistry in this episode (which, as we already discussed, was hinted at through most other eps) just makes me think that, perhaps, something happened or is about to happen between the two of them.

I know I've written an 'already established' post-ep to Fallout I&II, but I think that, perhaps, there might be something happened before or after those two eps.

Of course, maybe it's just wishful thinking.
