Wilderness Fic is Back!

Mac probably ought to keep his eyes on Giovanni and his gang, but he’s having a hard time holding his tongue. Under the hot anger that roils though his thoughts, his training tells him to keep his head down until he can come up with an actual plan. At the moment, they’re traveling away from his team and that’s the direction he wants Giovanni to keep going. 

If nothing else, he’s pretty sure that Giovanni won’t try to kill him yet. They’re still too far from their destination, and the leader is smart enough to know he can’t get there without help. There’s a good chance that he knows he needs Mac’s help finding his way back out, too. As long as Mac doesn’t piss him off too much, he’s got a day or so to work up a plan, which gives the rest of the team a day or so to get ahold of Matty and get an tac team here. 

“How much farther?” Giovanni asks.

Mac examines the map. “About two miles as the crow flies.” He doesn’t offer the map back. He could use it, if he can get away from Gio’s group. That’s feeling like a big ‘if’ given how closely Giovanni is watching him. “It’s going to be a one-way trip if we don’t stop to collect water.”

“When we get there.”

Mac can’t help shooting the man a scowl. “And if our muscles cramp from dehydration before we get there, are you going to shoot everybody?”

Gio presses his lips together.

Mac lifts the map again and pokes a finger at a smaller stream that the map shows to the north, which is the way they need to go to get around the steep slope in their path. “Look, you can send your people down here to this stream to collect the water. But we can’t drink it right from the stream, it’s not potable.”

“And you’re gonna make it drinkable?” Emma asks. Emma’s shivering, elbows tucked tight against herself as she rubs her arms. “How?”

(How indeed?)

"12-year old Angus learned that lesson the hard way."

MAC. You just spoke about yourself in the third person. Be glad Jack wasn't around 😂 Rule #2 is no one talks about themselves in the third person - WHO DOES THAT?!! 😂😂😜

Hello! Do you happen to have a list of all the "macriley episodes"? (with significant macriley moments) Especially in the first 3 seasons (4th and 5th are recent enough for me to remember lol). Have a lovely day!

That depends on your definition “significant”. Because that kind of stuff doesn’t really happen until the two most recent seasons anyway.

But I’ll list episodes I thought were cute for them.

Can Opener (1x07) - quintessential MacRiley episode

Scissors (1x11) – Not super significant, but him going after her with Jack was nice.

Large Blade (1x13) – Little interaction, but she worries about him which...cute.

Muscle Car + Paper Clips (2x02) – The first time Mac vocalizes his faith in Riley

Roulette Wheel + Wire (2x03) – She has him handcuffed to a bed and calls him ridiculous pet names. Need I say more?

Hammock + Balcony (2x16) – Mostly just cute glances. But the way he looks at her makes my heart happy.

UFO + Area 51 (2x22) – I’m just a sucker for MacRiley missions.

Improvise (3x01) – She just looked so happy to see him again. This episode absolutely does not need to be on this list, but...I’m soft for it.

Guts + Fuel + Hope (3x04) – Riley and Mac race to a get a tanker of liquid oxygen to a hospital. Brief possibility of Mac dying, so...worried Riley.

Revenge + Catacombs + Le Fantome (3x08) – Riley calms Mac down.

Wilderness + Training + Survival (3x13) – Riley [with the help of Bozer] races to save Mac after he’s taken captive. In my top three for MacRiley episodes.

Father + Bride + Betrayal (3x14) – Conversations are had that I think are important. And not only do we get to see him carry her, but we get to see him hug her out of relief. (“She’s okay. She’s okay” will never not kill me)

Treason + Heartbreak + Gum (3x21) – Riley breaks up with Billy, Mac comforts her.

Most of the MacRiley content in the first three seasons revolves more around how they act in general. The way they look at each other. The way he talks to her like he doesn’t talk to anybody else.

So it’s basically subtext.

But yeah. These are all good episodes to watch.

In which the kidnappers reach an obstacle 🌊 and Mac comes up with a plan...

Giovanni’s group arrives at the edge of the stream abruptly. The path the water has carved into the granite of the mountain is about twenty-five feet deep and at least thirty feet wide. There’s a thick, spiky bank of salmonberry bushes and ferns so they can’t get very close. Giovanni’s team isn’t prepared to climb over thorny bushes, so they hike upstream until they find a section where they can walk right up to the edge. It’s a steep drop to a raging stream. Exactly as Mac predicted. He unfolds the map, pursing his lips as he checks it again for a good spot to cross. Giovanni glares down into the ravine, hands on hips, and turns to one of the other men. “Anton. Get your rope out. You’re going down first.” Mac’s head snaps up, mouth dropping open before he pulls it shut. Surely someone else will say something before he has to. The idea is just so obviously a bad one. The man selected, Anton, looks skeptical even as he crouches to dig a coil of rope out of his backpack. It’s brand new, still wrapped in plastic. “We’re gonna get all wet trying to cross that.” “And you’re going to melt?” Giovanni’s tone is scathing. “It’s cold out here, Gio,” Anton complains, and Mac nods. “It’s not the damn arctic,” Giovanni snaps. “Get going or—” Mac can’t stop himself. “Anton’s right,” he says, already bracing for repercussions to speaking up. “That water is glacial melt. It’s going to be just above the melting point, and you don’t have any way to dry off on the other side. In weather like this, that’s asking for hypothermia.” Giovanni’s dark look is almost everything Mac expected, but the man doesn’t make a physical threat as he turns to argue. “It’s not freezing out here.” “It doesn’t have to be if you’re wet,” Mac points out. “Even dry, you can develop hypothermia in temperatures as high as fifty degrees fahrenheit and it’s not more than forty today. It’ll be even colder overnight.” And they’re all wearing cotton, which will be worse than useless as insulation if it gets damp. Giovanni’s jaw tightens as he clenches it. “Do you have a better idea?”
