Courting Fire by 221b Baker Street (PG-13/K+)
Fandom: THE MENTALIST
Pairing: Patrick Jane/Angela Ruskin
Length: 3,678 words
Author on LJ: Not sure if she has one
Author Website: On FFnet
Why this must be read:
The first of two fics I'm rec'ing today that concern themselves with a major Mentalist character we never get a chance to meet in the show: Angela Jane (nee Ruskin) is killed five years before the events of the pilot episode, but it's obvious in every episode that follows that her life (and by association, her death) profoundly affected Jane.
Courting Fire takes place in the early carnival years, and the author does a fantastic job showing how those seeds of ambition that so influenced Adult!Jane may have first started in Teen!Jane.
