laceymcbain, this Three Times Fic, is a wonderful insight into Colonel Decker on one of his pursuits of the A-Team and how he tries to use Murdock to find the other three.
The author shows Murdock in an array of characters and 'how crazy' the pilot can be.
It hooks you in within the first paragraph and you lose yourself within the story immediately. I know I read it and re-read it at least five times when I first found it.
"And how is Captain Murdock today," asked the woman. "Still a Roman poet?"
"Indeed."
"We were all forced to take Latin in school when I was young. Oh, how we hated it. I remember scribbling derogatory things about Cicero on my notebooks. It's sort of nice to hear Murdock reciting lyric verse, though…"
Decker stared at the woman, and she colored slightly and ceased her rambling.
"Will Captain Murdock be likely to return to modern times today?" Decker couldn't help the impatience coloring his voice. This whole thing was an apparent exercise in futility.
"It can be hard to judge. Sometimes these things only last a short while, and other times they can go on for weeks. I certainly prefer Catullus to the time he believed he was a skunk."
Decker wanted no more of this terrifying reminiscence, so he grunted his goodbyes, and turned to exit. As he passed Murdock's room, he could hear the man bellowing through the closed door.
"Siqua recordanti benefacta priora uoluptas est homini cum se cogitat esse pium…"
