Running Up Eight & Eighty by Ryuuza Kochou, PG-13
So, I'm about a week late and I deeply apologize about that! I've been busy with a personal project and haven't had much time for lj and just finally noticed that I got tagged to drive The A-Team Van!
I'd ask BA to give me the keys, but you really don't want to mess with BA and his Van. :D So I'll just sit in the Van as a passenger.
It's been a couple of years since this fandom was rec'd and I'd like to get things started with a quick fandom overview posted by the wonderful![[livejournal.com profile]](https://www.dreamwidth.org/img/external/lj-userinfo.gif)

The A-Team Fandom Overview - Please be aware this only covers the tv verse and not the movie verse
Now! Onto the fic!
Fandom: THE A-TEAM, MOVIE VERSE
Pairing: No Pairing, but mostly a Team Centric Fic
Length: 7,500 Words
Author on LJ: No LJ
Author Website: Author Profile on FF.net
Why this must be read: It is a movie verse fic, but it was also one of the first few Movie verse fics I read about The A-Team Movie and it caught me up completely into it. I believed it all! The characterizations are amazing and it shows the team bonding after they escape from Mexico in the first 10-20 minutes of the film. They're all testing the waters of who each other are and what they can do, but you can see The A-Team in them, just very new.
The fic opens up with Hannibal defending his actions on picking these three men for his Alpha Response Unit, when he could have anyone he wants from a very long list. While the defending is going on, Face, BA and Murdock are under guard, bored and decide they need something to eat, it only acclerates from there with much anticipated glee in wondering what the boys are going to do.
I won't spoil the fic too much, but it's definately worth a read and a re-read, especially near the end.
Smith," one member of the board replied to him, aghast. "You cannot be serious! These...men...you have nominated for your Alpha Response Unit are the biggest disgraces in the armed forces!"
Lt Colonel John 'Hannibal' Smith just smiled at their stunned faces. "They're the best, sir. And I want the best."
"One of them is a con artist, Smith!"
"I wasn't aware of any such charges ever being levelled against Lieutenant Peck, sir."
"Not for lack of trying! For crying out loud, the man smuggled the entire playboy mansion onto the base where he graduated and a portable swimming pool and live music and a full catered buffet. We don't even know how he convinced the officers not to bust him to toilet scrubber after it!"
Running Up Eight & Eighty
Enjoy!
