Their declarations were clear. Romance should be easy for Jane & Lisbon. But old fears die hard. It takes a little work to set two lives on a shared path. But commitment and love can make it a lot easier if they let it. 1-shot. Bit of angst followed by hot fluff. Strong situations. Don't like that? Then don't read this! Disclaimer: I own nothing about The Mentalist.

A short experiment with Wiley's point of view. Just guessing at his "voice." He's watching the night from the bullpen window wall when something even more interesting unfolds before his eyes. Suggestive mostly. (Not sure Wiley could handle Patrick and Teresa in full action. ) ;-) One-shot. Disclaimer: I own nothing about The Mentalist.

Developing intimacy as man and woman is the happy job of a new couple. The crushing number of cases to work made Teresa & Patrick's first months together frustrating and disjointed. Finally they had a week away to enjoy, alone together. Multi-chapter. Strong situations throughout. Don't like that stuff? Don't read this! Disclaimer: I own nothing about The Mentalist.

A tag for 6x22 'Blue Bird.' We have to wait 8 months to find out what happens after the TSA office, so I just invented part of the tale for now. Something lasts awhile, need a big glass of iced tea along the way and need a cigarette for afters. (JOKE) 1-shot, AU. Strong situations. Exit now if you don't like that. Disclaimer: I own nothing about The Mentalist.

A bit of fluff as we await the finale. The love Jane has for his gift of socks from Lisbon is a small phenomenon in the show. It's hard to laugh when we know how much they mean to him. Lisbon talks socks to Jane, on her goodbye visit. One-shot, AU. Strong situations. If you don't like that, stop now. Disclaimer: I own nothing about The Mentalist.

Short fluff imagining Teresa and Patrick in the garden of their lives. Simple family scene with a couple of more earthy real life elements. One-shot. AU. Probably a mild 'M.' If you don't like that stuff, then don't read this. Disclaimer: I don't own anything about The Mentalist.

This is a rough write, needing to post today before 6x20 'Black Hearts' tonight. A challenge from two other writers, it 'fixes' the porch scene again, but uses the cannoli in a different way this time. The seven? I'll explain that in the author's note. One-shot. Strong situations. If that displeases, don't read! Disclaimer: I own nothing about The Mentalist.

A tag to 6x20 'Il Tavolo Bianco.' Teresa realizes she gives Patrick no time to say what's on his mind. Pike is always there. She has to make time for her best friend. A best friend would want him to have that much. Lisbon's POV, then Jane's, then both. 3 chapters. AU. Strong situations. If you don't like that, don't read this! Disclaimer: The Mentalist? Don't own it.

Canon is closing fast, restricting the options for a believable story line. So this one is kind of crazy, I guess. Lisbon finds a way to test her fantasies. Jane senses painful fall-out. One-shot. AU. OOC? Whatever. Strong situations. If you don't like that stuff, don't read this! Disclaimer: I own nothing about The Mentalist.

A revision tag to the ending scene of 6x19 'Brown Eyed Girls.' Jane and Lisbon call each other on their lies. They meet after her date with Pike for an important talk and some unexpected bonding. Mild 'M'. One-shot. AU. OOC? IDEK. Warning! Strong situations. If you don't like that stuff, don't read this. Disclaimer: I own nothing about The Mentalist.

I have to warn you. This is not like my other stories. It's dark, with violent imagery, and there is no romance. Just a desperate man. At least it's very short. One-shot. AU. OOC I'm sure. Rated 'T' for the dark theme. Disclaimer: I own nothing about The Mentalist.

Lisbon wanted to ask Jane what he thought about her moving to D.C. As calm and accepting of her relationship with Pike as he seemed, she meant to ask the objective opinion of a friend. Her unconscious wanted to know if he would truly let her go? 1-shot. AU. OOC? IDEK. Strong situations. If you don't like that, don't read this! Disclaimer: The Mentalist? Don't own it.

Just a bit of Jisbon excitement to brace ourselves for the ongoing angst between them in the show right now. Thanks to Anon for the suggestion! One-shot. There's no excuse for this. I hope it's fun anyway. Strong situations. If you don't like that stuff, then don't read this! Disclaimer: I don't own anything about The Mentalist.

Suppose Lisbon did speak up first? Would it have to be awkward, or does she have some skills, too? Is he ready for her? Taggish: Scenes in "Silver Wings of Time" lead to a different outcome. One-shot. Surely AU. Strong situations. If you don't like that stuff, don't read this. Disclaimer: I own nothing about The Mentalist.

Patrick Jane seemed to be fading like a wraith before their eyes, withdrawn and locked away from anyone who tried to draw him out. Thin and drawn as leather, several serious mishaps made some wonder if he was actually trying to kill himself. A very angsty one-shot, very mild 'T.' Probably AU, maybe OOC, who knows? Disclaimer: I own nothing about The Mentalist.

A revision tag for the couch scene in 616 "Violets." So much potential there. Bring Jane and Lisbon together. Bypass dates with Pike. This is pretty much hot fluff. AU. One-shot. Strong situations. If you don't like that, then don't read this! Disclaimer: I own nothing about The Mentalist.

Patrick Jane has never been able to love Teresa Lisbon like she deserves. His memories and deep romantic love for his first wife could never be replaced. But he knew he was Teresa's one true love. She should have him. He knew he could make her happy, care for and love her in his own way. 1-Shot, AU. Strong situations. Disclaimer: I own nothing about The Mentalist.

The tension is unnerving, excruciating. Jane can't let Lisbon go, not without telling her how much he loves her, what he wants to build with her. But she is shut, not a crack open to him. Until one night, he pushes until she explodes. One-shot, AU. Strong situations. A bit violent. Don't like that? Then, don't read this! Disclaimer: I own nothing about The Mentalist.

A tag for the 6x14 Gray Water promo. Born of fun on Twitter with some crack accounts. A bit of undercover fun. Probably would never happen but it's fun to fantasize. Strong content. If you don't like that stuff, don't read this! Disclaimer: I own nothing about The Mentalist.

A dialogue between Jane and Lisbon, who have loved each other for a very long time but have wandered lost, maybe finding each other again. One-shot first posted on Tumblr, but re-worked here. K with one bad word. Disclaimer: I own nothing about The Mentalist.
