The Duck Pond: Alden Parker x Reader

Tagging: @kmc1989 @mandy426 @caffeinatedwoman @elefrog25-blog @toheavenwmydrms

Companion piece to:

Pillow Talk - Alden realises he's a shitty husband.

Two Points For Honesty - Alden makes a confession about his time on the run with Viv.

Wild Flowers - You confront Viv about what happened with Alden.

You’re not in your office when Alden comes to find you at the end of the day, the lights are off and the door is locked. Through the glass panelling he can see the spring wild flowers sticking out of the trash can, a tulip wilting over the edge and he knows in that moment that Viv has been to see you.

This situation between the three of you, it’s becoming untenable. His case is no closer to being solved and the longer it goes on…

Well he worries about there being a marriage to come back to because as tortious as he’s finding her presence, it must be a thousand times worse for you.

He finds you on a bench by the duck pond the two of you like to visit on Sundays. You always bring a small bag of frozen peas because it’s nutritious and the ducks love to play with them.

There’s a pink pastry box from the Flamingo bakery by your side and your fingertips are covered in powdered sugar. He sighs because this is another one of your stress behaviours, if it’s not smoking it’s donuts and from the size of the box he knows you’re going to be bouncing off the walls when you do decide to come home, if you decide to come home.

“One of those days huh?” He says as he picks up the box and takes up residency in it’s space. He sets it back down on his lap, feeling the weight of one donut remaining.

“Yea.” You reply, gesturing towards the box. “I got you a Boston Cream, I was going to bring it home with me but...”

You aren’t quite ready to go home yet because the apartment you share, it doesn’t feel like the sanctuary it used to, it hasn’t since that whole mess with the Raven started. You’ve been working hard, trying to get back into that mindset but it’s hard when the place keeps getting invaded.

First by Viv after the Raven took her, then the FBI, Alden with his secrets and Kris with his letters. It doesn’t feel like your refuge anymore, the sanctity of it’s been broken and you’re not quite sure how to fix it.

“Can we stay somewhere else tonight?” You ask him, your cheeks colouring as you make the request. “I know it’s stupid, but I just need to be somewhere where it’s just us, where there’s no memories of anything else, anyone else. I just need…”

You need him, him to remind you that you’re a priority in this relationship, that everything Viv says isn’t true, that you’re not just a placeholder to their inevitability.

Alden’s jaw clenches as he looks out across the duckpond and you feel something inside you just die, because you know what’s coming next.

“I can’t, there’s a stakeout tonight…”

He trails off unwilling to say the next part and he doesn’t have to because you know he’s spending the night in a car with his ex-wife, talking about old times, rekindling that flame. She’s right because there it is, that inevitability.

“Ok.” You say, your voice barely more than a whisper as you raise to your feet. “I forgot I need to be somewhere…”

“Lisa…” He calls out after you but you don’t respond you just keep your head down so he can’t see the tears on your cheeks as you walk away.

there's just something about crime shows made in the early to mid 2000s man

Tony DiNozzo + Shoulder Holster

for @indestinatus ♥

[coppertophomegurl]

Every crime show has an episode:

A high school reunion murder

A killer with diplomatic immunity that still gets arrested through some outrageous loophole

There's always an episode where a psychic comes forward to help. Everyone will be extremely wary of the psychic except for one person. And the psychic will end up being correct.

Murderous twins. They're often separated at birth. All the investigators will make a joke about it being twins and then are SHOCKED when it actually does turn out to be twins.

Killer child. Literally just a little kid that kills (usually another little kid)

An episode that villianizes people with DID. (sometimes the writers do a 2 for 1 special and make one of the "alters" a different gender so that they can both villianize mentally ill people, AND make transphobic jokes 🙃)

Sleepwalking murderer

Murder by proxy via hypnosis. Similar to the psychic, most of the team will be very skeptical.

Someone finds a body in a time capsule

Some killer that just got like WAY too into Dantes Inferno

Murder victim that has multiple families/wives

Murder at a roller derby. This episode will usually give off big sapphic vibes

Feel free to add more!

NCIS 10x04: Lost at Sea

[lorelaiblair]

Wednesday: the mold is fascinating. did you know there’s over 100,000 species of mold, which is why it’s not very surprising that i haven’t identified it yet. See these little conidiophores? That means that the mold is in the sexual phase of reproduction, in a few days these little appendages will sprout out from the center and then, well, you know what happens next.

Enid: are you enjoying yourself, love?

Wednesday: *sighs happily* yes, but what did you need help with?

Enid: have you seen my pink studded bracelet?

Wednesday: left side of the second drawer in the bedside table

Enid: Thanks Wedns, you can go back to your mold now

Wednesday: my love, you say the sweetest things

Because Lizzie, you professional unprofessional, those shows are viewed by the correct age demographic who understand what they see on screen and also understand that the relationship between first responders will always be more meaningful and reliant on 100% trust than a High School Musical-esque ensemble.

Meanwhile, 90% of the buddie shipper population are all 15 to 26 years of ignorance, and think anyone over 30 is a "hag" and that Angela Bassett gets too much screen time.

There's a reason why you "cover" these other procedurals yet never post about them on your profiles.

I imagine your dying brain cells are screaming to be utilized.
