A. and i have started watching White Collar, due to the promise of Diana coming back for next season, yay. mostly we spend the hour discussing Neal's lovely, gorgeous clothes and Neal's pretty, pretty face and how the power of fandom essentially transformed him into peter and El's pet after the mid-season break. FANDOM REPRESENT!
and then we also spend a large amount of time laughing at what passes for "FBI procedure" on this show. like, the simplest things, even. why isn't a soldier getting caught stealing under NCIS's purview, show? no, really. WHY. and then Peter's "this is totally illegal but i shall look the other way while my pet does it because his eyes are so very blue and i don't want to upset my wife." and also ahahaha how Peter tells Elizabeth EVERYTHING and okay i get it, pillow-talk exists, but everything, really? also if i suspect a jewelry theft in my shop can i just call the FBI and expect them to show up to investigate? is that how this works?
and then we decided that White Collar totally exists in the same universe as Leverage, in which you are to assume that every plot is nonsensical but that's not the POINT, the point is how cute the characters are and how they interact with one another and isn't Neal the prettiest princess EVER because he is. well, that and deciding whether Neal should sleep with Peter or Mohinder (we settled on Mohinder, because Peter/Neal is kind of awkward, not just because of him sharing the same name with FBI!Peter. but also Mohinder is so very beautiful, and possibly as tall as Matt Bomer, so hey. (we also want a fic in which Neal meets fifteen year old pickpocket Kate - possibly somewhere in Rome? and then they flirt by pulling off harmless little cons/leaving clues for one another to find, both of them trying to outsmart one another and falling in love at the same time. this is how future criminal masterminds court!)
but also, check out my favorite Neal coat:

it is so amazing i want it, i don't even care if it's for boys. pretty sure it's burberry, from the collar.

so pretty! *dresses nathan in it*


and maybe this as well.

this i feel though is something i'd like to see peter in.

or this.

or um, this.

OR THIS OKAY I SWEAR I'M DONE NOW.
