jane x lisbon is so funny. imagine you’re hunting down the serial killer who killed your wife and child and turned your life upside down. over the decade it takes for you to kill the guy back, you’re working for the cops and you’re sort of partners with this incredible, smart, hot, awesome woman. so of course you fall in love with her, but you can’t really do anything about it because 1. not over your dead wife 2. she’s technically your boss. so you kinda flirt with her, you buy her a pony, but you don’t cross a line. you do tell her you love her in a particularly risky scheme to catch the serial killer but it doesn’t work so you walk it back later. finally ten years after your family got killed you get the guy and kill him back. except now you’re on the run because you murdered a guy. so you spend two years in venezuela, until the fbi tracks you down and offers you a deal: they will drop the charges if you work for them. you agree, but only if they give your boss/partner/crush a job. she’s thankful about it but she also (rightfully) is mad at you that you think you can just change her career like that after two years of near-radio silence. so you both work for the fbi now and she’s not your boss anymore but you both kinda need time to get used to the new dynamic before you can say “hey queen i’ve been in love with you for like ten years” even though everyone keeps mentioning how they thought you guys would’ve gotten together years ago.
and then she starts dating pedro pascal.
