Summary
"Lisbon," he said, "I wouldn't do that to you. I'm your partner." She laughed out loud. "Right. My 'partner' who ditches me for six months for an undercover op he can't be bothered to tell me about. My 'partner' who hangs me out to dry in an interview with our lead suspect. I'm a stepping stone to Red John. Just like Lorelei. Except you've had to stand on me for a lot longer."

“I think everyone deserves a second chance. Not a fifth or a fourth or even a third, but just one more shot at making things right. And I guess I’m sorta hoping she’s yours.” — or, if Jane hadn’t lost his entire family to Red John.

Summary
After the death of Red John - a rewrite of the last season and a half after 6x08. Jane and Lisbon's story, a slowburn Jisbon centered novel of episodes.
There were a lot of things that irked me in the series after the death of RJ. The lack of character growth in the 2-year time hop, the Pike-Lisbon arc, Haibach's role, certain plot holes and ultimately, how little we got to see of Jane and Lisbon's relationship.
This fic is the ramblings of a dreamer, how I wish things could've been in a show I adored so much, with the two characters and their relationship that had captivated me and left me wishing for more. This is it. This is the more.

“You know I don’t like tea.”
“Well, you’ve hardly let me make you tea. I guarantee you you’ll like mine."
Lisbon scoffs, ripping open a packet and pouring it into her coffee. “Right. I bet you say that to all the girls,” she says as she grabs a stirrer.
“Not all the girls,” Jane says, and she can practically hear the smirk in his voice. “Just you.”

Summary
‘A bloodbath lays before them, deep red liquid pooling on the sheets beneath the limp body. A spatter of blood decorates the standard-issued headboard, and the blond's gaze is pulled to the lifeless brunette, unseeing eyes staring straight back at him. Above the bed on the white plaster wall is a morbid smiley face, drawn in blood.’
Or, a couple 20-somethings in college vs a notorious serial killer.

Summary
“Jane, stop it, seriously! A woman is claiming to be your dead wife and you wanna hypnotize me!?”
He tenses. His eyes flicker from her left to her right pupil. “Is that who you're talking to?” he asks. Then she hears him say, “It must be the medication. It's causing hallucinations. I need to get a doctor.” But his lips don't move.
It freaks her out. Is there something wrong with her eyes? Her brain? Is that why she can't see his mouth move even though she heard him speak? “Yeah, maybe you should get a doctor,” she agrees shakily. “Unless this is one of your tricks. Jane, I'm gonna be so pissed if this is one of your tricks.”
In which O'Laughlin's bullet did more damage, psychic powers are real, and Lisbon gets to know Jane's wife.

Summary
The kiss wasn’t just a kiss; it was electric. Charged with every moment they’d spent pretending, denying, avoiding. The air between them buzzed, alive with the tension of years. Each brush of his lips, each shift of his hands, spoke of everything they had been holding back. The unspoken words. The night on her porch when she’d almost begged him to give her a reason to stay.
The first glance after two long years apart.
The soft touches that lingered longer than they should have.
It had all led here.
OR.... A troubled boy meets an angry princess.
He drinks tea.
She buys him socks.He finally stops being a dumb dumb and tells her he loves her.

Summary
“Don’t fret, Lisbon. I’m still not trying to seduce you,” Jane remarked coyly, his hand barely covering the microphone on his phone.
She smirked as she combed her fingers through a warm spiral before letting it fall softly around her face. His reflection in the bathroom mirror was impish, and the way he moved around her – hovering a little too close – was just plain bothersome.
“I’m not fretting, Jane.” She reached out, straightening the light grey tie he’d paired with his charcoal suit. “You couldn’t seduce me if you wanted to.”
