la la la DEATH and DESPAIR

[schmerica]

Keeping up with my bizarrely morbid streak -- since my last viewing of the Pilot, I am now strangely intrigued with the idea of a story where, after Call of the Wild, Fraser has stayed up in the Northwest Territories and Ray has gone back to Chicago. Until, of course, Ray dies and Fraser has to go to Chicago and bring his killers to justice -- with all the deliberate parallels of the pilot, of course, la la la investigating, la la la Fraser versus everybody else, etc. Only I think Ray Kowalski's ghost could show up a lot earlier than Bob Fraser's did, because I'd want it to be a slash story, and I don't think this Fraser and RayK would have actually had a relationship. There could be lots of subtext-filled pre-slashy flashbacks on Fraser's end, too!

If only I could, you know, do plot or length of any sort. Sigh.

(On rereading, I realize this sounds very slightly similar to Kowalski is Bleeding, but it really wouldn't be; I think it's just the "stubborn Fraser" and "investigating" things that make it sound that way, but really, those are relatively basic elements.)

I also think there should be more stories where Fraser and Ray's really, really bad habits of wandering off to do dangerous stuff in different states and/or countries without informing anybody of anything gets them into trouble. Or just Fraser doing it to Ray. One of these days, he's going to end up naked in Wisconsin without money for a payphone, and then what is he going to do?

Heeeeee. You think Fraser would go the logical way, rather than somehow convincing a passing motorist to let him borrow ill-fitting clothes and beginning to just, like, hike all the way back?

Oh, I don't know, I think Fraser watched those 1-800 commercials with Alyssa Milano way more carefully than Ray ever realized.
