“what about y/n?” Lance asked, breaking the silence. Temperance looked between the boys confused. Seeley shrugged but couldn't help but smile at the mention of her name.
“what about her?” Seeley asked. Temperance smiled and started to quickly talk with her hands. “Dr. Montenegro is great scientist and one of our closets friends”
Lance shook his head with a small smile, he looked over at Seeley and nodded towrds him. “your always talking about her, maybe just tell me how you guys met... It'll help break the ice I think.”
Seeley took breath a rubbed his hands together. He looked down then back up with a smile. “I first saw her at Royal Diner, she had just gotten the job at the jeffersonian with her sister Angela...”
“-She's a Forensic Entomologist like Hodgins” Temperance butted in, Seeley held his hands and looked at his partner. “you telling the story or am I?”He made sure not to make it sound harsh, he knew y/n was important to Her just like Angela was.
Temperance set back in the couch and crossed her legs. “I'm sorry...continue, I actually don't think I heard the full story”
Seeley nodded and continued with the story. Seeley smiled as he thought about the day he first saw her, it still gives him butterflies. “the day I saw her, we were knee deep in a case... I was tried, stressed, I don't know what I was hoping for... But the moment I saw her...”
he stoped, feeling like he was getting too sappy. He truly didn't care and would talk about you for hours, but it felt weird being this open.
“continue Booth” Lance said.
“that afternoon I was walking to the Diner to meet Bones... Then I saw her” Seeley smiled. “I don't know why- well I do know but... The point is I stopped when he saw her... literally stopped!” Seeley let out a small laugh, Lance smiled softly as his friend continued.
“She hadn't notice me yet due to her nose being stuck in a book... Nothing new” he joked, he loved she had a passion outside of work, even if you 'ignore' him because she's reading.
“when I saw her through that window I couldn't help but see all her perfections, every one of them... I said to myself "oh my God that's the most beautiful girl I've ever seen"”
Temperance laughed lovingly at that.
“I wanted to talk to her so bad, but I'd never went up to a total stranger unless it was for a case... I don't know why I was so nervous”
“but your very good at talking to women...” Temperance said confused. Seeley signaled her to wait. “she wasn't some woman... This is y/n were talking about” Seeley said.
“Anyway... I started pacing back and forth in front of the window trying think of what to say to her, she still hasn't notice me yet...ya know I can still remember the book she was reading”
“what was it?” Lance asked. “The Great Gastby”
Seeley continued with the story after that “So I went in... The bell dinged as I slowly walked in, She had her back to me and hadn't notice me yet” Seeley said “she couldn't see me, but she was right there... Right there!” he chuckled. “I stayed silent as got closer... She was in arms reach and I could tap her shoulder if I wanted too, but then I chickened out and walked pasted her.”
“I walked up to the breakfast counter and just casually admired her while she was reading... I noticed how she would slightly nibble on her bottom lip when she read or she had a different expression for an event in the book.” Seeley slowly started to space out as he thought more about her “I could see all her tattoos... And I'll tell ya tattoos have never looked so beautiful on a women.”
He looked up at Lance and continued to explain every step “so, I quickly ordered a coffee and looked around... I don't why, maybe I was waiting for Angela to pop and tell me to get lost. I don't really know”
“it's okay to say you were nervous” Lance smirked. Seeley rolled his eyes. “Anyway... So I finally decided to talk to her... You only live once right? So I went up to her and said...”
“exuse me” she looked up slowly and smiled.
“oh, hey” her voice was so soft and gentle.. She's so cute when she's shy.
“why would an amazing woman like you even talk to someone like me?”
“I said it so bluntly I think both us was surprise, I don't know who was more shocked... But she just chuckled and her cheeks started to heat up... It was so cute and she says... ”
“why not?” she replied.
“I laugh and looked down. "would you like to set down?" she offered to my releaf, I nodded and sat across from her.
“I'm y/n” she gave him a childish smirk and held our her hand. He placed his hand in hers and smiled. “Seeley Booth”
“nice to meet you... Your Temperance's friend right?” he nodded and smiled at her. “yup”
“I looked down and saw another book… i think it was called Crime Scene Intelligence, or something like that but-”
Temperance interrupted again with enthusiasm. “I've heard of that book and its Crime Scene Intelligence: An Experiment in Forensic Entomology.. Its by Albert Cruz”
Seeley sighed again but at the same time couldn't be mad, even if she was interrupting and correcting him it showed she was interested and cared enough to listen.
“Anyway…this got me thinking, especially when I saw a case file so I asked her”
“Are you in Forensics? Bug girl?” She looked at me and chuckled.
“Now I didn't mean for it to come out the way it did … but she didn’t seem to mind, so then she said…”
“Yeah..me and my brother-in-law are, I actual got a job with him”
“Wait, you got a job at Jeffersonian?” I asked, she shook her head yes
“Back then I couldn’t tell ya how or why I was so happy to hear that” Seely laughed as he laid back on the couch. “So, we talked some more…you know how shy she is when she first meets someone” Lance and Temperance both nodded. y/n was the type of person to be really shy and quiet when she first meets someone but when she gets used to you, she is so open, joyfull, and goofy.
“Well she wasn’t like that with me.. I don't really know why but she seemed so carefree when we had our first conversation”
Lance and temperance were still invested in the story, even temperance couldn’t bring herself to interrupt again. “So we continued talking for about 45 minutes and it felt great But a moment can't last forever. Y/n phone rang, cutting our conversation short. She stood up as, who I’m guessing was Angela telling her to come to the lab. She smiled at me and said…”
“I'm sorry I have to met my sister"
She smiled at him and said “it was nice to meet you Seeley, maybe I'll see you around” she shyly waved him goodbye and headed out the door.
“I remember just kinda sinking in my chair, feeling like I lost my chance, I didn't even get her number.” Seeley stopped then looked at his two friends like there was hope. “But then… looked down and saw her tattered Forensic Entomology book. She left it on the table. I looked out the window and saw she was at a bench packing her backpack up, so I quickly grabbed the book and headed out the door.”
“Then what happened?” Lance asked.
“Well, I went up to her and said…”
“hay” y/n looked up and smiled at the brown eyed agent. He awkwardly cleared his throat and handed her the book. “You left this” she sighed in relief. “oh, thanks” she put it in her bag and slung it over her shoulder.
“I kinda regained some kinda confidence back and I asked her if she wanted to walk with me”
"You mind if I walk you to the lab? Busy city and all', we can pick up my car at the Bureau” he gave her a confident smile this time. She raised an eyebrow. "it's just down the street"
“I started to get nervous the way she looked at me..” Seeley said
"I'm head that way anyway" he argued. She playfully rolled her eyes and sighed.
“And she replied..”
“Why is it so Important? We're strangers.”
“So she let me walk her a couple of blocks, my car was at the Bureau so we picked it up, the drive was kinda silent …it was a good kinda silent, anyway after a while I couldn't take it anymore and i didnt know when i was gonna have another chance like this so i asked for her number”
"Can I have your number?" he asked suddenly. Y/n's eyes widened as she looked over to the driver's side. Both were surprised by the sudden question. She would have never believed a handsome man like himself would ask her out.
“I didn’t get an answer right away and I think rightly so, but it still made me nervous,” Seeley said. “Did she ever give you an answer that day?” Temperance asked.
“I'm getting there,” Seeley said. “So we got to the lab and I asked again, I was serious about it ya know and i think she started to realize that. Later on in our relationship she told me she thought it was a joke…she never had anyone interested in her before. I mean I call bullcrap on that…any guy would be lucky to have her,”
“So about that number?” he asked, she chuckled. “you could be some psycho killer for all I know”
Seeley let out a laugh. “there's always that possibility” he shrugged and gave a goofy smile. “come on y/n live a little”
“After I said that She smiled, I couldn't stop looking at her... She was so beautiful. She looked down at her Converse, she always does that when she’s nervous. Then she asked me…”
"Why are you looking at me like that?"
“cuz you're beautiful” she raised an eyebrow and let out a laugh. “wow” he gave her a questioning look. “what?” he asked.
She rolled her eyes. “You know flattery will get ya no where.” he nodded. “well how about I want to get to know you better”
“She sighed and thought about it for a bit and she said okay” Seeley smiled “then she took a post-it note from her bag and wrote her number and smiley face with its tongue sticking out.” he laughed, Temperance smiled when Seeley pulled out the famous sticky note out of his wallet.
“And the rest is history” Seeley smiled as he handed the post-it-note to Lance.
“She means a lot to you..” Lance smiled, seeley nodded with a smile. “She means everything… I’m gonna ask her to marry me…i just don't know how or when” Seeley said truthfully.
“You'll know when the time's right,” Lance said softly.
After the session Seeley left Lance's office and saw y/n talking with James Aubry and Caroline. He couldn’t help but smile as he watched her laugh and smile with her friends, he felt so lucky to have her.

4x21 The Mayhem on a Cross (Bones) is actually INSANE I’ve never given it enough credit
Gordon Gordon and Sweets - canon season 4 at least ONE of them ‘struggles with denying their attraction everyday’ STOP and then Sweets is just the most traumatised lil duckling ever he just wants to be loved and Gordon is so grandpa core and booth LOVES him
NOT TO MENTION the way that when their sharing their childhood trauma (so so rare) to make sweets feel like he’s part of a family and Bones shares a small snippet from an awful childhood experience in foster care and booth is just like ‘I was going to kill my self’ and then no one ever talks about it again
ITS ALWAYS THE UNSUSPECTING EPISODES
anyway go watch bones it’s the most unhinged found family, trauma, slow burn romance disgustingly lovely show ever it just also happens to be a for-tv crime drama 🥲🥲

Comedy short: who broke the coffee pot?(Bones)
Paring: reader x jeffersonian staff
Summary: cam wants to know who broke the coffee pot.
A/n: bones requests are open!
MasterList
Tumblr media
Cam called a staff meeting today... No one would have ever predicted that it would be about a broken coffee pot. Not a corpse, not a piece of broken bone, but a broken pot.
They all stood around the broken coffee pot confused, in the coffee maker it's self was large beaker from the lab in place of the pot. All of us minus Bones, she was aggravated she was taken away from her work for this.
“So...” Cam said crossing her arms “Who broke it? I'm not mad, I just wanna know.” she said softly looking at everyone.
Everyone stayed silent as Seeley and Lance walked in confused. Lance walked up next to y/n looking at the broken glass. Before he could ask what happened y/n sighed when she saw everyone's silent panic and spoke up.
“...I did. I broke it.” y/n said trying to save who's ever ass broke it.
Cam shook her head and sighed “No. No you didn't, you don't even drink coffee. Dr. Hodgins?”
Jack looked insulted that she would even mention him, did he not relize how many beakers he's broken in the Lab? “Don't look at me. Look at Wendell”
The blond look bewildered and gave Jack a dirty look before turning to Cam. “What?! I didn't break it.”
Jack hummed and looked at Cam like he cracked the case “Huh, that's weird. How'd you even know it was broken?”
Wendell started to get annoyed, he rubbed his fave then pointed to the broken glass “Because it's sitting right in front of us and it's broken.”
Jack shrugged “Suspicious.”
“No, it's not!” Wendell said shaking his head. Cam, who just wanted an answer sighed right back and looked towards Seeley who interjected.
“If it matters, probably not, but Lance was the last one to use it.” y/n and Lance both looked at him shocked.
“Liar! I don't even work here!” Lance said stepping away from the group.
“Oh really? Then what were you doing by the coffee cart last night?” Seeley asked in joking matter, he wasn't really trying to blame him.
“Because Brennan asked me to get her a cup of coffee while I got y/n her tea. They were both working late last Everyone knows that, Booth” Lance quickly said and his story check out.
Angela sighed and put her hands up “Okay let's not fight. I broke it. Let me pay for it, Cam”
Cam stoped her and held up the lose handle “No! Who broke it!?”
Everyone stayed quiet, they all shared glances just waiting for someone to crack. Jack's eyes fell on Bones who was now checking her watch.
Jack glanced at Cam “Cam Brennan's been awfully quiet.”
Bones gasped, shocked anyone would accuse her of such accusations “really Dr. Hodgins?!”
Everyone starts arguing after that, the squints and the scientists that is. Lance and Seeley stared, still confused on what just happened. Cam just snickered and walked over to the boys. “I broke it by accident. It burned my hand so I punched it.”
Seeley and Lance started chuckling when they saw y/n throw a hand full of coffee stirrers at Wendell and Jack.
Seeley chuckled. “I predict 10 minutes from now they'll be at each other's throats with warpaint on their faces and a skull on a stick.”
*Later at the Bureau*
“crap!” James sighed as the sound of glass shattering filled his ears, he quickly looked around for witness hoping no one saw him break the coffee pot in the break room.
Caroline sighed and pulled out her phone from a distance, James didn't see her dialing Cam's number. “Cam, tell me how you handled the coffee pot situation at the jeffersonian”

Bones: Patterns and Precedents - II
Tumblr media
Sweets was a great friend to Booth and Brennan, but a lousy therapist.
Tumblr media
One of my favourite scenes of Season 3 is in The Man in the Mud, where they are talking in the car on the way back from interrogating the father of the victim. In the context of not changing one’s mind once a decision is made, Booth refers to ‘no changies, no takebacks’.
Brennan: That whole business with changies and takebacks, that’s not true, is it?
Booth: No.
The implication of Booth’s line reverberates in the air, and my heart kind of breaks for Brennan. She accepted the barely leashed attraction much before Booth allowed himself to think of her that way. Despite Booth being completely reticent with his own dark past at this point, she understands the core of him better than he could have imagined.
My favourite example of this is in Player Under Pressure, when she staunchly refuses to let Booth place himself in the category of ‘stunted jocks who used women like playthings’.
Brennan: Even Cutler knew you were lying when you said you treated women like that, under the bleachers.
Booth: And you believe him?
Brennan: Yes, because you still remember that first girl’s name.   
Tumblr media
Season 3 Brennan is perhaps my favourite of the early Brennans – she had her father and brother back, she had Zack back, and she had Booth all to herself. She was beginning to loosen the reins on her boundless sense of empathy and letting herself feel again. Simultaneously Booth starts to realise that Brennan sees him, truly sees him for who he is, and that perhaps he can let some of his controlled façade fall around her. If their relationship was in any way analogous to an ordinary relationship between two average people, this would be the initial dating and courtship period. I whole-heartedly believe that without outside interference, the line would have started being erased.
Enter Sweets and ‘partner therapy’.
Tumblr media
I might be biased since I WILL be comparing every show therapist to Linda hereafter, but even within the bounds of this bias, Sweets falls short. I can buy the need for the FBI to require an objective evaluation for such a non-conventional partnership. But Sweets seems to have focused on their potential romantic overtones from the very beginning, rather than doing his job – evaluating the partnership. At the point he comes in, B&B as professional partners are solid and not a broken thing that needs fixing. Even when Sweets insists on a ‘double date’ to observe the partners in a non-work setting, it is his relationship which ends up being under the scanner, and the psychiatrist who ends up needing the help of his patients. Purportedly, he was there to ensure the professional boundaries would be maintained while B&B worked on opposite sides during Max’s trial, but once again, they didn’t need any outside help navigating that.
Sweets’ decision to keep Brennan in the dark about Booth after his shooting was frankly unforgiveable. That one decision unraveled all the emotional stability she had been shoring up in this season. With Zack following close on the heels of this incident, it’s no wonder she took a significant emotional step back in Season 4. Even though their partnership was intact, her banter towards Booth had an edge reminiscent of early Season 1. She’s just a smidge too snide, a mite too dismissive.
In Sweets’ defense, he was spot on with the ‘surrogate relationship’ observation in Man in the Outhouse. He noticed the utter, absolute trust displayed by Brennan towards Booth in Double Trouble. In Con Man in the Meth Lab, it was Brennan who fell short as Booth’s friend and Sweets who stepped up. In response, it is Brennan who steps up and fully assimilates Sweets into their makeshift family through the sharing of their darkest secrets.
This is all to say, Sweets as a part of the overall Jeffersonian-FBI family is perfect. But as a therapist? Booth’s coma ripped away the thick walls of denial he had built around his feelings for Brennan. Instead of gentling Booth through this upheaval, like a therapist SHOULD do, he casts heavy doubt on the validity of Booth’s feelings, only to then do an about turn and all but goad Booth into an impulsive gamble that almost destroyed things. Yes, Booth’s actions are his own – but dammit you expect to trust the advice of your long-term supposed therapist!
Tumblr media
You might argue that a personal relationship with his patients is what prevents Sweets from acting as an objective therapist, but again, Dr. Linda Martin has already set the benchmark on how to be a great friend as well as an exceptional therapist.
