anyways,,, when in s2e1 sheppard had his retire party and bill made a speech he could’ve just pick up a fork from his own table where he sat with wendy but instead he went up to holden where he chatted with some people and picked up a fork from his table,,, and honestly, if it wasn’t totally for the sole reason of disturbing holden & friends’ chít-chatting and making him turn and listen to Him ,,, then i don’t know why he did it like that. like seriously. bill literally walked up to holden and stole His fork to tap it to his glass when he could’ve stole it from wendy or literally anyone else. or just, yknow, use his own. in this essay i will
Imagine Holden not being able to let go of how well Wendy was able to think up of a “"story”“ about her being gay in order to get more information for their interview, and trying to do the same himself. Like he devises a ”“story”“ and practices it beforehand but when he goes into the room with bill and the serial killer, it’s no longer a story, it’s real. It’s his admiration, his love, for his partner that he realises isn’t anyone he’s made up for the sake of enriching research, he’s no different. He’s actually in love with Bill.
I wish there were more fics about this crossover, Holden fits Connor’s character so much! (also, I’m kinda projecting my expectations for Matrix 4 uhuh)
