The Mentalist: My gateway fandom to writing allll kinds of things I hadn't pondered before. OT3 for the win!
Playful establishing of his boundaries. Yes, this! "I will amuse myself by being AWESOME and ATTRACTIVE in your prescence, and you can feel free to glory in the WONDER OF ME, but bare in mind I won't be sleeping with you." Though, in another lifetime, maybe.
but in this part I hope you won't hate me for confessing that I saw a bit of Wrong here Nope, you nailed it ( :-) smile of writerly vindication). I was writing that with Jane's summertime trauma in mind, it's just Walter doesn't have the context to understand the reaction. So *he* jumps tracks onto slight D/s fantasies... which, when I write it out that explicitly is an opportunity for Great Wrong and Epic Miscommunication D-: but I console myself with the fact that Walter is a perceptive man, it wouldn't take him a moment to correctly interpret Jane's signals and back the hell off. Plus, it's Lisbon with the power in that particular scenario, and she understands the differnce between Jane's co-operative moments, and his fear.
I can finally swallow the lump in my throat and get you that email Ready when you are :-D
