OTL + Zodiac- I'm telling you guys, happy and fluffy fics can be found by Caster at either WMTDB or ff.net. Especially "Strategies" where poor Greg is strategizing how to pop the question when things just keep getting in the way. By the end, no matter how many times you read it, you'll be laughing and crying at the same time. It's a beautiful piece with a surprise that has to do with Hodges. I can't promote this story enough! lol.
As for death stories... I watched Rent last night (for the millionth time) and I got this wild idea when Angel meets Tom Collins after he's been beaten up. I could easily see Greg as Angel and Nick could easily be Tom. I tried to fit the rest of the csi cast into Rent roles, but it kinda hurt my brain cause the rest of them don't fit quite so well. I could only see Gil as Benny who sells out to everyone, so Gil would change sides and be with Ecklie and the Sheriff. Odd, I know. But it hurt my brain, so I stopped thinking about it. lol.
As for songs, I definitely think "Hide and Seek" by Imogen Heap is a Greg song, especially since someone did a Fannysmackin' video with that song that's just amazing. And of course, when I heard "White Flag" by Dido on the radio one day, it hit me that it's for our ship. And that's how it got to be on the front page of the wiki, and how Twins got the idea for the video...love that song! lol.
