All pairings have a theme song. For example, Sheppard/Atlantis = “Number 1 Crush.”
And as I was pursing this line of thinking as I was — I’m not joking — on my knees scrubbing out my apartment (God damn moving), my iPod kicked in with Melissa Ferrick, “Drive,” and I said, out loud to my roommate’s conditioner: “Oh my God. That is totally Gibbs and Tony’s fucked up sex song.” I love the idea of multimedia and intertextuality, so if I could program songs to cue up in stories, I’d do it, and if there was a scene where Gibbs was shoving Tony up against a wall and pinning his wrists to the wall, whispering in his ear, I’d totally be playing this song.
Hi- I’m usually the world’s worst lurker, but I had to thank you for the awesomeness that is your bruno & boots fic. It’s gorgeous and hilarious and perfectly in character. I basically exploded with love, not just for the stories, but for how they made remember exactly how much I love those books.
(Also, my inner twelve year old is totally convinced “Bitch” is John and Atlantis’s song. Because he WOULDN’T HAVE IT ANY OTHER WAY, no matter how many times her galaxy tries to kill him.)
this line? “I know how you like it when I tease you for hours” made me think of John/Rodney. Hmm mmm.
