#Alex & Ben Daniels

[stormsthatrage]

Idea: Ben and Yassen both arriving at the same time, from opposite ends of a cement corridor, at Alex's cell to rescue him.

Ben and Yassen regarding each other with deep suspicion and perplexity. The dual thought processes of 'You're MI6 but you actually bothered to come extract him this time? What mission do you need him for now...' vs 'You are an internationally wanted assassin, affiliated with the organization that tried to assassinate him, and you assassinated his uncle. There is no way you are here to help him.'

Both of them having to work together anyway to get Alex, who is unconscious, safely out of the terrorist compound. Both of them staying in the same safe-house while Alex is fading in and out of consciousness, because they don't trust the other with Alex.

Alex waking up, and it becoming immediately apparent to both Yassen and Ben that Alex trusts -- and, to a certain extent, emotionally relies on -- both of them.

Both of them getting angry at Alex for trusting the other, because, again, the dual thought processes of 'He is an assassin, Alex' vs 'He is with the organization that has abused you since you were 14, Alex.'

Both of them eventually coming to respect the fact that the other wants what's best for Alex. This respect eventually morphs into teaming up to take care of Alex. This, in turn, eventually morphs into what very much resembles the co-parenting of a teenage superspy.

okay do we think ben celebrated alex's birthday on the correct date or, not knowing exactly how old she was when he kidnapped her, that he celebrated the day he took her, instead? (which was the 12th of april. by my calculations alex should have been born in the 4th/5th april therefore)

also i wonder if danielle even knew when exactly her daughter was born or if, being lost as she was in the jungle, she celebrated it wrong, too

Ben: Cub, I know you think you're helping, but you're not

Alex: I wasn't helping. Nor was I trying to

What if we wrote characters reading thirst posts like on Jimmy Kimmel

Yassen knows how to cook like a Michelin chef. He learned it at Malagosto. But that level of food takes time and effort, so he only does it when he's on a job that requires it or when he feels like it.

So, if Yassen is cooking, Ben and Alex have no idea whether they are getting a 3-star Michelin meal or frozen pizza.

if danielle had survived and was told it was keamy who killed alex, would she have enough self-restraint not to kill him because of his pacemaker-bomb or would she help ben stab the guy

Like many musical theater fans, I am fully obsessed with that Lie Detector Interview for the leads of "Merrily" and now I'm so salty we never got one for "Regina Comet" because you know full well Ben would have gone Full Jonathan and it would be up to Alex and Bryonha to keep him in check.

[ratboycrutchie]

Alex: okay, let's check the suggestion box "asshole," okay, next one "eat shit, asshole" okay, ignore that too. "I hope you choke on a bullet"

Ben: good thing these are anonymous

Alex: no, Wolf signed that one
