I’m on my first full watch of Justified and loved seasons 1 through 4, enough that it’s already in my top shows ever. Now, season 5 is… well, let’s just say I’m finding it a bit weaker than previous seasons to put it nicely. So I figured I’d try to compile some bright spots as I go to help me (and anyone else who might like/need them) reach season 6:
- Raylan’s still handsome as anything (as Rachel said in the first season, it definitely helps him get away with things). Sigh, I like to watch him walk. Also, his accent is a little heavier in this season (in my opinion), which I think is a great acting touch. Side note: Raylan remains a disaster but I love him anyway.
- The comedy duo of Boyd and Wynn
- Loretta McCready, I adore you.
- Wynn’s interrogation with the BB gun
- Raylan and Boyd being Raylan and Boyd in episode 4. “Raylan Givens, are you flattering me?” They dug coal together okay, their flirting and intricate courtship rituals are incomprehensible to anyone but them. Though I love how all the characters are like you're not fooling anyone. The way they leaned back against the bar and looked at each other — Boyd try not to look so fond of the lawman who keeps interrupting your criminal activities.
- Tim Gutterson and Rachel Brooks
- Tim and Boyd playing Scrabble. I loved the little glimpse of this and wish the scene had been longer. Like what word did Boyd play that he asked if Tim wanted to challenge? Who was winning? Inquiring minds want to know.

From the body of the beast
Raylan sees them, blurry and gray. He realizes Harlan—Harlan who has been created from the blood of those living there—doesn’t have eyes, but sees them all the same. There are so many, and Raylan falls into only a few.
Harlan wakes up.
Two girls, late teens, huddle together in an abandoned shaft. They wrap their arms around each other, and they’re obviously scared, but Raylan can’t tell of what. They wear clothing that doesn’t make sense to Raylan, fashion that hasn’t been invented yet. Thick red travels down one’s leg into the dirt. The other sports a bloody nose. She wipes her lip with the back of her hand, and it comes away red. She lets her hand rest against the floor of the cave.
Harlan wakes up.
A man backs away, his arms are up, he keeps shaking his head in dissension. These flashbacks don’t have audio, but Raylan can read No and I’ll get you the money on his lips. Raylan can’t see what corners him, but the man’s back hits the mine wall. Red splatters up the rock where his head used to be, as the man crumples to the ground.
Harlan wakes up.
A Bennett—he has the look, the face, the same stupid grin— a bullet scratches through his shirt, spilling over the dust, and he smirks, smoking gun in hand, twirls and holsters it.
Harlan wakes up.
A woman in an old fifties house dress claws into a rubble pile. She wails, and full sobs shake her body. A cave in, Raylan suspects, and she breaks her nails in a futile attempt to dig out the rocks. She’s not like a widow in an old miner’s tale, Raylan thinks, she is the widow in an old miners’ tale. The wreckage cuts deep gashes across her palms, and Raylan sees bright red bleed out of the wound, the only color in this gray scale memory. Hazel.
Harlan wakes up.
An old memory. Raylan knows this one. Boyd pulls Raylan up the mine shaft, the two of them running from the rocks falling behind them. Blood snakes down each of their forearms, meeting at their hands, forming one drop before flying to the floor, left behind in their haste.
Harlan wakes up.
Loretta McCready stands too close to the edge of a mineshaft. A minor scrape Raylan hadn’t even guessed at now glowing red and dripping just into the black.
Harlan wakes up.
(I might also send you a bit from your omegaverse if I can fucking narrow down 500 words)
Raylan! Thank you for the ask about "The Body of the Beast"! I'd also love to answer about "The Soil in Your Belly" :D
Ohhhh, this scene. I'm glad you picked one from Harlan's point of view, because all of it was soooo fun to write. Harlan has her little blorbos (something I couldn't write in the fic, but you know know in your heart to be true).
To be honest, Harlan's scene is the second scene I wrote for this fic. I wrote the very beginning-- Harlan reaching up to grab them, pull them into the past, and them to wake up there-- and the very last. Writing all the sandwich in the middle was what took the longest. I think that's fitting, though, for Raylan's line to have been for this was always how it was going to end, and I, as author, knew it too.
This part had gone through some edits, of course, once I knew more about everyone, including Hazel-Virginia and how Raylan might feel upon seeing her. I'm happy to have included her, and I hadn't called her Virginia until her second appearance, because I thought it'd be fun for readers to have one chance to come up with the minitwist themselves, haha, just before the offical reveal.
The two girls and the man who died, they were to give more numbers to the different favorites Harlan has, while not making too many characters as we know them special. That said, I also used them to show that Harlan doesn't necessarily have a type, in that the man who borrowed money is a coward and unwise to be borrowing from those he shouldn't. The girls, from the future, show that Harlan doesn't pick from any time period either.
The blood that Raylan and Boyd spills is intended to keep them as a set, while also showing how united they were in that moment. They are but one blood, they are so close. I imagine it makes Harlan's blood magic easier to use than if they hadn't been, haha, though I also suppose she doesn't have concepts of "easy" for her to make decisions around.
Also, Loretta was fun for me as well, because Harlan has already changed the time line. Even if she does bleed into Harlan, it won't be in this way, as Raylan and Boyd have changed their futures. It's to show that Harlan has different responses to time lines than other characters, as she is a minor god, and they are not. I think it's also just to prove how lovable Loretta is. Even Harlan loved her so.
