Fic: Perspectives of Absence

My fannish interests have once again gone in an unexpected direction, and I'm currently very into Person of Interest! The past week has been great for that fandom and my fave ship, because it's been @rinchfest, with lots of lovely new content for Reese & Finch!

My contribution to the event is this little story, which fills the following prompts: Day 1 (dark), Day 3 (pets/animals), Day 4 (The Machine), Day 6 (Finch whump) and today, Day 7 (free-for-all).

Title: Perspectives of Absence Fandom: Person of Interest Rating: Teen And Up Audiences Warnings: No Archive Warnings Apply Word count: 7,462 Pairing: Harold Finch/John Reese Characters: Harold Finch, John Reese, Bear (Person of Interest), Sameen Shaw, The Machine (Person of Interest) Additional Tags: Hurt Harold Finch, Blood and Injury, Established Relationship, Light Angst, POV Harold Finch, Present Tense, Rinch Fest, POV Bear (Person of Interest), POV The Machine (Person of Interest), POV John Reese, Happy Ending

Summary:

After yet another case gone wrong, Finch is missing. While he lies in the dark contemplating his fate, no one else in Team Machine is having a good time, either.

Written for Rinch Fest 2024, each chapter corresponding to a different day, each with a different POV. Also fills the "Left for Dead" square on my @badthingshappenbingo card.
