Posting un-anon because this is basically copy/pasted from a comment I left elsewhere after 2x13 (not that it really has anything to do with the events of that ep...)

Okay, I know I'm the ONLY ONE WHO WANTS THIS, but I want Reese to be
like, "You know what? We have a GREAT LIFE. I'm really happy. *Harold*
thinks we walk a lonely road & etc., but he's wrong, it's possible to be
REALLY HAPPY in the batcave. 'Cause I'm really happy." And he constantly
thinks about going to Grace and filling her in on everything, and giving
her the choice, because obviously she would want to be with Harold, and
then bringing her to Harold-- like, thinking about it all the time,
imagining it fifty different ways, how best to break it to her, and what
would be the best way to spring it on Harold, because Reese is happy, and
HAROLD SHOULD BE HAPPY. (And there are things Reese can't do for him and
that's why he got Bear for Harold, because Harold needs AFFECTION, Harold
needs to feel connected to something, Harold needs to feel safe, like
there's someone who will ALWAYS be around to look after him and *depend*
on him and *need* him in a happy, uncomplicated way-- but, on the other
hand, a person would be better than a pet, a person could love Harold
like Harold DESERVES TO BE LOVED OMG REESE WANTS IT SO BAD-- so, yeah.
Grace! Reese just thinks about Harold and Grace all the time. ALL THE
TIME.)

Can end up being Reese/Finch, Reese/Finch/Grace, or Reese being happy for Grace/Finch, whatever the filler thinks...

Subject line says it all?

Finch loves baseball and Reese knows Finch loves baseball. So - something? Reese takes Finch to a game? A number comes up involving baseball? Anything, really?

In a universe where everyone knows about werewolves and they exist as a minority group among humans, Reese is a werewolf. There are positive and negative stereotypes about being one, loyalty and protectiveness but also co-dependence, tendencies toward violence, etc. Reese is used to people treating him like a dog, but then he meets Finch. At first he thinks Finch is just another person who sees only the wolf, and not the man...

Do the timelines match up to make this possible? DO I CARE? I do not.

For reasons, The Machine needs Carter for something that it can't or won't let Finch and Reese know about, whether it be saving them, getting them to hook up, or just playing the most epic April Fools joke on them EVER.

Will comes back to NYC, meets Reese (maybe while he is gleefully spending Finch's money), and is instantly suspicious. Because his uncle is awesome, alright, and he deserves better than some trophy boyfriend who wants him for his money and doesn't appreciate him. So he sets out to find out all he can about this John Rooney/Wiley/Reese/Warren person. Hijinks ensue.

Shaw and Carter, meet, hit it off, have epic sex, and drive Reese and Finch crazy.

This time, Bear is the one who solves the number and saves the day.

Finch sees that Grace is going out with somebody new... and upon investigation, realizes that The Machine set her up with this person. How & why? And what is Finch going to do about it?

Based on this gif & tumblr commentary, the one where Finch has to go undercover as (or impersonate) some sort of super evil Lex Luthor type crime lord and Reese is his creepy right hand man bodyguard/enforcer. (Andthentheyhavesex.)

THE ONE WHERE REESE IS AN ESCAPED/DEFECTIVE GOVT-ENGINEERED AI BUT FINCH IS THE BETTER ROBOT. Human robot. Better at being a robot, even as a human. >___> I just want Finch to tinker with Reese's insides okay, and Reese to have so many feelings for his metallic soullll. [Kara is probably a robot, too! I love Kara! Go anywhere with pairings/ratings/etc. BE FREE, robot prompt!]

The Machine's coming-to-terms with it's inhumanity (and humanity's irrational response to that), and/or other people's realisations of and reactions to that non-human sentience issue.

John never left the CIA. His new mission: Spying on the mysterious Harold Wren, who's keeping some secrets the CIA really wants to have...

Bonus points if both John and Harold are a little darker and a little more damaged here than they are in canon - John, after years of working a job he hates, forced to kill people for reasons that are never explained to him. Harold, after years of trying, and often failing, to save the numbers with only the help of a bunch of unreliable mercenaries who can never know what's really going on.

Extra bonus points if John tries to seduce Harold to gain his trust.

Reese starts rubbing Finch's back for him, and Finch both loves it (because Reese is so good at it, and Finch needs it so badly, because he should be getting regular massages with his fucked-up back but he's not because trust issues) and hates it (because it's embarrassing and kind of humiliating and sometimes he can't help making noises and he's perfectly aware that Reese is using this to fuck with their power balance) but for Reese it's really just about the fact that no one ever touches him, and he's completely starved for touch.

Bad guys force them to fuck.

Generally, I want a Finch as a seemingly boring medieval low level crippled landlord, who actually is the BFF of a beloved earl/duke/whatever Nathan. However, he's actually a recluse wizard whom created the omniscient 'Machine'.
Anyways, he's forced out of his cover when news reaches him that Nathan was beheaded in the Capitol.

Meanwhile, in the slums of the Capitol... ex-Knight Reese continues to get drunk at 10am.

These two meet, proceed with the mystery of Nathan's execution. All the while falling in love!

The intimacy of nonstop phone contact - Finch's voice is in Reese's ear ALL THE TIME.

Would love to read Finch just dropping in little porny lines at random moments & pretending it didn't happen.

Like Reese could get stuck in a closet having to listen in on a couple having sex and Finch could do the commentary.

"what are they doing now, Mr Reese? Has he wrapped her in his manly arms? Has he reverently touched her most private places?"

"Finch, I'm going to murder you."

"What's that, Mr. Reese? Finding it a little HARD to concentrate?"

Finch listens to everything - and Reese knows it, and uses it to tease and ultimately seduce him.

So we know that Caviezel is a) super self-destructive in pursuit of his ~art (how many times did he get whipped/have his shoulder dislocated/hypothermia/punched in the face by now? and b) a homophobic fundamentalist Christian.

I just really want a fic where Caviezel finds himself in love with a guy, and has to deal with this new horrifying thing he's learned about himself, and basically his entire self-image crashing and burning. Especially if the guy has no idea what's going on, but can tell that he's somehow off and really unhappy and maybe a bit more self-destructive than usual on set, and decides to take care of him, because he's not going to take care of himself.

Could be Caviezel/Emerson? But really any pairing would work for me here.

Instead of trying to have Reese killed in Ordos, the CIA disappeared him by selling him into slavery - somewhere like a brothel or the mines, somewhere unwanted slaves are sent to die.

By the time he goes back on the market, he's been hurt and abused for years, half broken, angry and distrustful. That's when Finch finds him (either in an auction just by chance, or because he's been looking for him since he disappeared.) Of course, Reese isn't really capable of trusting anyone by that point, and he keeps waiting for Finch to turn on him somehow even while Finch is trying to fix him by giving him a sense of purpose.

Fusco gets captured. He's not really expecting anyone to come for him. Meanwhile, Reese, Finch and Carter are tearing the city apart trying to get him back.

There's only one bed in the hotel room (again). This time, it's really too cold not to share.

Any time, any place, any pairing!

holding hands! can be platonic or slashy, either way
