Subtext is everything

S9Ep08 Young Man With A Horn
Even if you haven't seen Season 12* yet, here is your opportunity to squee about canon, because we're back with a classic episode full of Nick/Greg goodness \o/

Our two favorite CSIs are sent to the outskirts of town to investigate an old casino. Now we all know how much Greg loves to share his knowledge about Old Vegas, especially when he has Nick's full attention, so of course he goes into fanboy mode and Nick lets him :-)

( But first there is a bit of a bittersweet moment, ahw.... )

So. What do you think? Wasn't this a nice set of moments? Which one did you like best? The one where Greg comforts Nick with just a look? The one where Nick indulges Greg's babbling? Or the one where they totally forget that Grissom is standing next to them?

We loved all of it :-D

S9Ep19 The Descent of Man
We're kind of continuing with the food-theme from last week's classic episode. Nick and Greg once again share a scene with the rest of the team, but look at those glances between the two of them. The others may as well be invisible;)

( Does anyone wanna grab some breakfast? )
*Hey, was that a reference to Greg's book? Did he sell the movie rights? Discuss. Or just chinhand and happily sigh about those looks between them, Nick's tight pants army haircut or Greg's fancy jacket.

There will be a new poll this weekend, but before that there is a new episode to talk about this Thursday! Catch up with Season 11 here! (Or preview and discuss SPOILERS for episode 14 here)

S9Ep10 One To Go & S9Ep12 Disarmed And Dangerous
This time we picked two moments where the guys are definitely not as explicit as in last week's classic. But we thought these scenes in the dark A/V lab could be inspirational;) Can you spot the difference between the one where they have company and the one where they are alone together?

( It’s not gonna get much better than this. )

Can you come up with dialogue or subtext for one or both scenes? Want to make slashy icons with the limited amount of screencaps? Share with the group! Or, you know, just discuss the pretty:) Have fun!

There is no new episode this week. Which is actually a good thing, because a lot of you are still talking about the latest Season 11 episode... We think S11Ep12 set a new record for comments;)

S9Ep05 Leave Out All The Rest
There is no new episode this week, so we're offering an extra dose of moments from the past to enjoy. This Season 9 episode contains all the familiar ingredients: Greg talks about his kinks, Nick gets flustered. In short: classic stuff *grins*

( What does it say about me that I always find the smut? )
*Offers cold drink*... So. Want to talk about these scenes? Got a follow up fic? Share! What's going on in Nick's head? It's rather obvious what Greg is thinking about, but feel free to give us your own interpretation;) Also: "Tuning forks"? Really? Discuss!

This episode is of course nominated in our search for The All Time Favorite Nick & Greg Moment. We'll start the polls for Season 9 this weekend.

S9Ep9 19 Down...
On request we are going to extend our Icon Challenge and this means we will postpone the second part of the Season 6 poll, as to not distract you with too many projects;)

For those of you who are in the mood for a trip down memory lane, we offer a classic from season 9.
This is the episode when we hear Greg is promoted to CSI Level 3! \o/ And then the guys go on a roadtrip to celebrate. At least that's what we think;) How about you?
Here are four moments to reminisce...
( I promise not to abuse my power over you. )
We hope these scenes offer plenty of inspiration for fic, icon-designs or a comment-discussion: Smug!Greg, Teasing!Nick, ROADTRIP!, Excited!Greg, Challenging!Nick and of course those glances in that last scene. Let's talk:)

Already know of follow up fic? Link us!
Want to join the Icon Competition? Go here!. We'll set a new deadline this weekend. Be creative!
