Why this must be read:
Classic Alias fic, set around the time of the first season episode "The Coup." This story...makes me uncomfortable in all the right ways. It's an amazing glimpse into Jack Bristow's head, even though it's entirely from the narrator's POV.
"Have you been here long?" you said politely, extra politely, because he'd fucked with your routine and you didn't like it but you needed the money--you needed the car, you needed something to keep you interested, and he said,
"Not long," just as politely, his eyes glinting, and that's how you knew he'd been there for a while.
That's how you knew he was almost as good a liar as you.
