Turning Tide by Em_Meredith (PG-13)

Turning Tide by Em_Meredith (PG-13)

Fandom: ALIAS
Pairing: Sydney / Weiss UST
Author on LJ: [livejournal.com profile] em_meredith
Author Website: Under the Sink
Why this must be read:

As the companion to Steamy Conversation, the author once again eloquently captures the dynamic of Sydney and Weiss, but this time, their bubble bath isn't so innocent.

"Weiss?"

"Yeah," he says again, staring intently at her bathrobe, which is lying on the floor.

"You're quiet tonight."

Weiss drops her hand and pours himself another glass of wine. He takes a long sip before answering. "I'm not sure where this is leading, Syd."

She suddenly feels very naked. She's been nude in the same room as Weiss a million times now, but she's never been so aware that only a few small bubbles are concealing her body from him. She's hyperaware of every inch of skin that peeks above the water and every inch that's hidden just below. They've been in this situation more times than she can count, but she's never felt vulnerable before.

"I don't --" she starts, but he cuts her off before she has a chance to feign ignorance.

"The way I see it, there are two reasons why you're doing this. Either you're pissed about Vaughn and you think that seducing good old Eric will make you feel better, or you've forgotten entirely that I am, in fact, a man. I hope it goes without saying that neither of those options is very appealing to me."

As someone who lives in Ireland and who is about 3 hours, give or take, from seeing the second episode of season three, and who is completely spoiler free for the remainder of the season, but who loves the idea of Syd/Weiss, can I just ask?

Will this spoil me for anything in season three, and please bear in mind, I didn't even read the summary, just in case!

A yes or no will do fine, and thank you for your indulgence! {VBG}

Yes--there are spoilers up through the third episode.

So I shall return at this time next week!

Thank you very much for your answer - I don't do the spoiler free thing much, but I'm trying to be good!
