The clock is laughing in my face
-Brain Stew, Greenday




1985


"But I solved it!"

"That's right, Shawn, but it wasn't fast enough. Do it again."

"But Dad!"

"Shawn, no buts. As a police officer you will encounter situations where merely figuring something out won't cut it if it's you against the clock. You have to stay focused under the pressure of time. Never forget: Your life or the life of others could depend on it. Now. Do it again."



Present Day


"I placed another bomb and you are not going to find it!"

Two hours left.

Well, not anymore, since Lassy had been in the interrogation room for at least twenty minutes now. Shawn had only seen glimpses and boy, he'd have told the head detective after two seconds where the damn thing was hidden. Lives were in danger here and Shawn knew that whenever Lassy's protective instinct kicked in he could be terrifying.

( Still, no luck so far. )

Take a look at the muse list for the community. Pick a muse that your muse does not have interaction with now (unless it’s casual meta) who would fit in each category, thinking about your muse and their basic personality, lifestyle, normal behavior and interests. Go with a first reaction. Remember, it cannot be anyone that your muse has played with in anything but the most meta of interactions.

1. A muse that your muse could conceivably date.
2. A muse that your muse could conceivably hate.
3. A muse that your muse could do business with.
4. A muse that your muse could hang out with in a bar.

Talk about the reasons why.



1. I think he might be able to have a nice date with Evie from 'The Mummy' movies (timetravelevie). Due to his lifelong friendship with Gus he is used to that certain kind of geekiness in a person so I think he might feel comfortable and relaxed around her when she turns all "excited librarian talking about history and stuff he doesn't know anything about".

2. Someone Shawn could hate... that's difficult. Shawn's not the 'hating' type. He might state that he learned he hated his father in the pilot but it's obviously something he's really uncomfortable with. To him everything in life is about fun. Hating someone is just not fun at all.

3. Business? Hmm, I guess he'd do business with almost everyone. He's a private investigator after all. But I could definitely see him offering his services with a fake recommendation from the SBPD to other police institutions, like the CSI, NCIS or Law&Order muses, maybe munchsvu. Come on! Who doesn’t need a fake psychic from time to time? Call him! :D

4. Hang out in a bar with? Wes Janson, I suppose, aka lt_wes_janson! I mean, come on, with Shawn making movie references whenever he can and even whenever he can't, they could have the crackiest talk about Earth's version of the whole galactic timeline and history of the Star Wars Universe. Over a beer. Which Shawn will shamelessly call Ale for no apparent reason and also try to order in Bocce. Because he has the STAR WARS Galactic phrase book and travel guide.
