    Summary

    The journey that is put into motion at the end of S3, when Dyson asks Delorme if she would cover for her while the DS takes some time off.

    --

    "It reminded her strangely of a phone call ages ago, back when Delorme had still been at CIS and filing in for Dyson while the woman took some much needed time off. Back then, Noelle had mentioned to her how strange it had felt, to be home for longer in the day, and how that changed the dynamic between her and her then-wife. It was so long ago now, that conversation, that it felt like it had happened in a different lifetime as Delorme looked back at it. They’d been such different people, back then, barely what one could consider friends. And now they were in a romantic relationship with each other, and pretty happy with it, as well.

    Maybe they should look into counseling, the former detective suddenly thought. Not because Delorme really believed that their relationship was in serious trouble. No, it was more, she thought that it could help them, with the transition. Make things a little easier, for both Noelle as well as herself."

    Summary

    Set post Season 4:

    He picked up by the second ring, the sound of the receiver clicking in the background. He didn’t even say hello - he didn’t know what to fucking say. He never did.

    The sound of her breath was heavy.

    “John?”

    “Yeah?” His voice was tired and quiet - afraid to say the wrong thing.

    “I miss you.”

    Summary

    As a big fan of a bit of jealousy in fics I figured it was about time that we saw that through Lise's fiery French Canadian eyes... with a very bemused John caught in the crossfire. I am sure we all know who will win this heart ❤
    Happy Belated Valentines!

    Summary

    Totally inspired by 'aeryn_sun' and 'lisedelorme' and their amazing 'sharing a bed' fics. I hope you guys enjoy my take on this trope and Thankyou for all the encouragement and inspiration.

    “We have a double murderer on our patch. I wouldn’t normally expect you to have to do this, but given the circumstances of the case and the M.O. of the killer I think this could be the only way to flush him out before anyone else gets killed. I need you both to go undercover as newlyweds. At least for the weekend and we can take it from there.”

    Surely everything will go totally smoothly and professionally for these two.............. :p

    Summary

    Just a little doodle to get back into the habit of writing ... what if they had not been interrupted in all those scenes in S4? Would their lives have taken a slightly different trajectory?

    I have every intention of making this into a series where they actually slowly and tenderly acknowledge their feelings.

    I haven’t been snowed in without power, but after basically sleeping my way through my Christmas holidays and needing a bit of a creative break after that full-on advent calendar, I’ve been super busy seeing as how I’m the PRO in procrastination and now scrambling to meet all my deadlines and pretty much starting the year how I ended it: overworked and exhausted. And with my precious free time, had to make sure my favorite girl had a very special and very late Christmas present and my favorite kids’ birthdays were very special - seeing as how I know from personal experience that being a December (or January) baby kinda sucks.

    But there’s light at the end of the tunnel and I hope I’ll be back more regularly again soon.

    Summary

    This will start as some emotional fluff and a look at what we should have seen in the hotel room if I had my way. It will work as a stand alone few chapters but I hope to stretch it out after that to a bit of angsty cannon action beyond that night in Toronto if it goes well.... With a more satisfactory ending than the final episode for these two!

    This is my first venture into this kind of writing so be gentle. I don't own the characters or the basic plot line (although I wouldn't mind a John Cardinal)

    Summary

    A Christmas love story that accidentally starts with more angst than should be allowed in December but I promise will quickly descend into fluff and a little bit of smut as these two remember why they need to be together in amongst as many Christmas cliché's as I can shovel in - with a very big clumsy snow shovel I might add! I hope you enjoy and that I can update a couple of times a week up until Christmas.

    Summary

    So ... I was telling our favorite lisedelorme how I'd been getting my godsons, nieces and nephews advent calendars and I was busy "delivering" them this weekend. And she was like "I want one." and it was a bit too late to ask for her address and send something. But guess what you can do last minute? Fic advent calendars! Maybe throw in a vid or something. And yeesh. We have so many freaking ideas flying around ... this seemed like an excellent way to start ticking off stuff on that list :-D And I was planning on watching all of Cardinal as my personal advent calendar starting today. And figured - or I could just write some missing scenes and drabbles to go along with that. And then started watching S1 Ep 1 and it gave me all the feels and I was soooooo emotional.
    Honestly don't know if I'll be able to really do one a day, because crazy busy and still trying to finish True North, but it's the thought that counts, right? So ... this may end up being 24 parts, just might take a bit longer. And the angst fest is going to hit an all time high next, so a little light fluff and smut was in order anyway.
    If anyone feels like pitching in, let me know and I'll add you!

    Summary

    Don’t kill me ☺️ I’ve had a bit of writer’s block and I swear I tried writing something light and fluffy and … just couldn’t find the right footing. Ugh and this one has been hiding in a dark, terrible corner of my mind and somehow I had no problems with this angstfest. So here goes nothing … welcome to ‘Bright shiny futures are overrated anyway’. No, I’m not actually that messed up… this might have a silver lining somewhere. After generous helpings of massive angst and whump.

    So what if … they didn’t figure it out at the end of S4? What if they went their separate ways, John going down that dark rabbit hole and all of Kelly’s warnings thrown to the wind? What if he let her walk out of his life? What if he’d kept doing that job that grinds him down? What then?

    Summary

    What happens after they say goodbye in the final episode? How does John cope with the reality of losing his partner?
    It's going to be a little angsty because it is catching! But mainly fluffy and soppy because I just need happy fluff right about now...oh and just a little smut (wet john smut to be precise)

    At least we can always count on Kelly to save the day.
