What if this fanfic was a book? - The Cursed Heiress (Desire and Decorum AU)
The Cursed Heiress by @noesapphic is a Desire and Decorum AU! with a powerful MC named Joanna Mills (though she is known for other names that are revealed in the series as more and more of her secrets come to light), mythological creatures, supernatural elements and crossovers with Choices' books such as Bloodbound and Nightbound. In this series, we follow Joanna while she learns the secrets that will change her entire existence, meet the five people whose destinies are entwined with hers and prepare herself not only for the role of the Earl of Edgewater's heiress but in the upcoming war that can destroy humanity.
If this series was turned into a book, I thought of a few ideas for covers inspired by Joanna's magic powers and the color red.
But I can already envision a special edition with hardcover and The Damned Daughter too.
You can read the A/N and have access to all the chapters of the main series and the series The Damned Daughter, info about the MC and lore, one shots etc
I hope you like it, Noe! ☺️
Tagging a few of you who might like seeing this: @storyofmychoices @princess-geek @lorirwritesfanfic @lilyoffandoms

Joanna "Fix" Harper
Age: 27
Height: 5'7 / 172 cm
Hair Color: Greyish brown
Eye color: Greyish green
Skin color: Fair
Specializations: Intelligence gathering/synthesis, Combat medic, Sniper
File:
Joanna 'Fix' Harper is a former army medic turned CIA operative under the direction of Station Chief Laswell, assigned to Special Taskforce 141 as their resident medic and intelligence specialist. Fix graduated with a bachelor's in international affairs with a certificate in counter-terrorism studies, and completed two deployments in Eastern Africa before being recruited to the CIA. The medic received her nickname for her record time in dressing field wounds and 'fixing' her teammates.
Much of Fix's file is redacted per her request, but sources say Fix is the daughter of a United State's senator, and is now estranged from her family which consists of herself, her father and mother, and her older brother. Fix's father hails from West Virginia, and is currently on the Senate Armed Services Committee. Fix grew up in Chevy Chase, Maryland, on the outskirts of Washington D.C. When Fix turned 18, she entered the pathways program with the US Army, and enlisted immediately after receiving her bachelors. She has not been in contact with her family since then.
Fix is known to be extremely resilient, determined, and focus-driven- often to her own detriment. Quiet and reserved, Fix spends time considering her words before speaking. Fix prefers quiet, intimate gatherings as opposed to loud outings, and is deeply and unfaltering loyal to her friends and allies. Fix's supervisors have noted that she tends to be overly self critical, a fault that Fix herself has admitted to. There are rumors of an undisclosed relationship between her and Lt. Simon 'Ghost' Riley, but these rumors have not been confirmed.

Hot Vintage TV Women's Bracket - List of the Ladies!
As promised below is a full list of all 130 women in the Hot Vintage TV Women's Tournament! Thank you to everyone who submitted their favs!
Just a brief bit of cleanup before the list. Thank you for all the submissions. If your submission didn't make it into the bracket or some of your propaganda isn't used know that I still appreciated the submission even if we weren't able to use it. Some things got cut for being outside the bounds of the tournament, some things got cut because the links were broken, etc. Anything I wasn't sure about got brought to family and friends for a second opinion. I did my best to keep as much in as possible but some things just ended up leaning too far outside of our criteria. If you notice some stuff that seems outside the criteria slip by it's because I tried to be very generous so as long as something wasn't obviously outside of our time period or rules I usually gave it a pass.
Anyway, I am working on the bracket as we speak and apologize in advance cause I don't think there's any way to make round 1 completely painless, as you'll see we have a pretty stacked line-up so I'm excited to see how things work out! Enjoy and see you all on Monday April 15th for round one of the Hot Vintage TV Women's Bracket!

Spn Ladies!!!!!
Okay, so there's this blog I really, really like called @bluelikesad and I love their art sm, and they have this one series called "Spn Ladies" that they're doing and I noticed there's no masterpost for it so I decided to make one for them a. so they have it and b. because I love the series and want it on my blog bc it's so good lol. I will update this as they post more to the series ig. All credit goes to Blue for the art <3.
Update: Okay, so I got an anon message saying that it's rude to do this even if you include the artist because it still brings less exposure for the artist, so since I will be removing the pictures for this post for that reason, just go to Blue's blog, and search the tag "#spn ladies" and you will see all the posts for it. Anyways thank you to anon for mentioning this, I didn't even really think about that, and I want Blue to get their full credit and exposure they deserve so thanks! And you weren't being a bitch by saying this btw.
Update #2: I figured out recently how to make links to posts (hence my masterlist) so Imma add the links to Blue's art. Once again, love your art gurlieee!!! (idk if that's your pronouns but I call everyone gurlie and gurl)
Cassie Robinson <3
Anna the angel <3
Joanna Harvelle <3
Rowena McLeod <3
Donna Hanscum <3
Meg Masters <3
Meg 2.0 <3
Ambriel the angel <3

would you be willing to rec books that have voyeurism in them?
Sure! This list includes voyeurism that involves the hero and/or the heroine but not necessarily both, and they may be watching other people while getting off on it.
Historical:
The Recruit by Monica McCarty: Mary watches Kenneth have sex with another woman in the stables after wandering in thinking a horse was in distress. Kenneth notices her and puts on a bit of a show.
Her Wanton Wager by Grace Callaway: Percy watches couples getting off through a peephole in Hunt's club, and when Hunt catches her she's sadly contemplating that she'll never be a good girl, but Hunt is like "HELL YEAH YOU AREN'T" and goes to town on her. Truly an affirming scene.
The Duke Who Knew Too Much by Grace Callaway: Ft. some unwitting as well as witting(?) voyeurism; the unwitting bit is when Emma accidentally happens upon some light CNC between the hero Alaric and his mistress at the time; the more purposeful voyeurism is when Alaric kidnaps Emma and takes her to a sex club to observe BDSM scenes to make her understand what he was doing with his mistress and then they make out.
The Prince of Broadway by Joanna Shupe: We love a good peephole scene; this one takes place during a police raid and Clay and Florence are in a tunnel and happen upon a couple having sex through a partition. Flo makes Clay turn around and they both masturbate to it.
The Bride Goes Rogue by Joanna Shupe: Katherine watches Preston masturbate in the French Ball scene, and later on, he watches her masturbate in front of him in a carriage.
His Countess by S.M. LaViolette: Gideon brings two prostitutes to his new estate and the widow of the last earl, Alys, watches them go at it (with snacks) for multiple nights and he is very aware of this and puts on a show.
You'll find voyeurism in most of the books in LaViolette's Victorian Decadence series, but this is the one that stood out to me.
Contemporary:
Praise by Sara Cate: There's a great scene during the opening of the kink club where Charlie and Emerson are in a dark room watching a couple having sex through the window and he fingers her while they watch.
Eyes on Me by Sara Cate: This book is allll about voyeurism; from what I remember, Garrett hasn't had sex in a decade but he has done plenty of watching. The heroine, his stepsister Mia, is a cam girl on not!OnlyFans and he's a regular viewer. Later on, there's plenty of great exhibitionism scenes as well set in the club.
Give Me More by Sara Cate: Hunter's original fantasy is to watch Drake with his wife Isabel, and this does happen a few times initially (in a kink club, and during a "there was only one bed" hotel room sitch).
When Heroes Fall by Giana Darling: There's this really hot scene where Elena watches Dante jerk off through a crack in his bedroom door, and he calls her name out when he orgasms.
The Professional by Kresley Cole: When Sevastyan first breaks into Natalie's home to kidnap her, he watches her masturbate in the bathtub before he drags her out of there lol. Later on when they're in Paris, he routinely watches her masturbate on security cameras and storms home while she's calmly giving a show.
Only For A Night by Naima Simone: Another sex club voyeurism scene; Rion gets Harper off in the voyeurism room in his aphrodisiac club while they watch another couple through the glass.
Neon Gods by Katee Robert: One of the earlier sex scenes involves Hades and Persephone in a shadowy corner of his in-house kink club and getting off while they watch another couple perform a scene.
A Worthy Opponent by Katee Robert also has some voyeurism stuff from what I remember since it's based around the kink club Hades and Meg run.

Where in the world is Henrietta Lange? Nary a mention.
Who's down with OTP: Who knows. They weren’t here but there weren't there together, so that's good.
Who's down with BrOTP: Very little BrOTP time though the three generations of Hanna men were great.
Fashion review: Callen wore a black polo-style shirt (really more Chris O’Donnell than G. Callen). Sam in a dark blue long-sleeve tee. Fatima had a grey sweater over a white mock turtleneck. Rountree wore a pale purple Carhart long-sleeve tee (great color). As always, the Admiral wore a blue three-piece suit, pale blue dress shirt, blue tie.
Music: “Sunday Morning Underground” by Faustus is playing during the opening scenes at the beach. “Initial Mailing” by Cargo is playing while Marco is being questioned by Fatima and Rountree.
Any notable cut scene: Four straight without a deleted scene.
Quote: Sam: “Oh, Callen told me something interesting...Sonic.”
Raymond: “Now, see, I'm confused again.”
Aiden: “Uh, it's my call sign, Grandpop. Your squadron picks it for you, usually after you've done something pretty stupid.”
Sam: “Yeah, like, say illegally breaking the sound barrier? Something like that?”
Aiden: “Well, let's just say that my plane wasn't the only thing that went supersonic that day. I have never seen my CO use that many curse words.”
Raymond: “My boy.”
Anything else: Some previously-s with Aiden telling Sam he’s going to fly for the Navy, Aiden flying for the Navy, the Rountree siblings traffic stop from hell.
On the beach, a hustler is scamming a fisherman into getting a fishing license for a public pier. As they negotiate, a military plane passes over them but the jet’s engine blows out and the plane starts to fail. The plane crashes but the pilot ejects just before impact. As his parachute lands, the fisherman races over to see the pilot, who is alive but not conscious. The hustler isn’t thrilled, especially since the fishing liecens thing may have been less than legit. Ambulances are heard in the background as the hustler pulls the fisherman away from the pilot. Best not to be involved.
The pilot’s uniform nameplate reads “Hanna”.
Walking through the office, Shyla gets a number of messages and calls on her cellphone. Looking for somewhere quiet to take the call, she walks into the burn room only to find Fatima praying. Shyla is surprised Fatima would pray in a place like the burn room but “anywhere is a place of prayer” for Fatima. Well, not bathrooms and graveyards.
Shyla explains the calls are coming from her soon to be ex-husband. They have been separated for three-years but just started with the divorce proceedings. While her ex isn’t contesting the divorce, he also doesn’t want it. All the papers have been filed, just waiting for the court to say everything is in order. The phone rings again so Fatima leaves Shyla to deal with the soon to be former Mr. Shyla.
In wardrobe, Rountree is rummaging through his stored pants. He is searching for his wallet – he thought it may have left it in one of his undercover outfits. The Admiral arrives and finds the wallet immediately on a nearby table. Seeing Rountree is out of sorts, the Admiral asks him what is going on. According to Det. Whiting, LAPD wants Rountree to speak to their PR department. The plans is for LAPD to give paid leave to the officers involved in the traffic stop where Rountree and Jordyn were harassed. While Rountree didn’t know what LAPD planned to do with the officers, paid leave “sure as hell” wasn’t part of the plan.
Knowing it isn’t his place to comment, the Admiral says that things may not get better even if Rountree pushes it. “Crooked cops have gotten less for doing worse.” Rountree knows that. He also thinks that if he wasn’t a federal agent, LAPD wouldn’t be interested in doing anything at all. Again, not wanting to tell Rountree what to do, the Admiral reminds Rountree that NCIS works with LAPD and LAPD could make things tough for Rountree. “Tough is what I do,” Rountree tells him. Then the Admiral thinks it should be easy for Rountree to clean up his mess in wardrobe.
An annoyed Raymond walks into the boat shed with Sam as Callen sits at the boat shed table. Seems pancakes are Raymond’s issue. Sam’s mom would make Raymond’s pancakes with premade mix while his caretaker makes them from scratch and says she makes them from the mix. And if she lies about that, what else is the caretaker lying about.
Callen apologizes for not knowing Raymond was coming – he only got two cups of coffee. It’s not a problem for Raymond, he take Sam’s coffee. The coffee isn’t the only thing Sam lost that morning – Raymond’s caretaker quit. Sam can’t believe this is all about pancakes while Callen disagrees – breakfast in the most important meal of the day. Raymond teams up with Callen to mock Sam.
Walking to the back of the boatshed, Sam is looking for someone to take care of Raymond that day. Callen helpfully suggests Agent Castor. Raymond and Callen share their mutual enjoyment of messing with Sam. Sam’s phone rings – Aiden is in the hospital near Point Magu. Sam and Raymond are on their way while Callen tries to find out what NCIS knows.
NCIS doesn’t know much, according to Fatima, except Aiden’s F-35 crashed. Fatima and the Admiral meet Shyla and Rountree in Ops, Callen is on the big screen with Lt. Commander Kristina Hirsh, a JAG Officer. Lt. Hanna is fine, being held for observation overnight. The Admiral asks about the cause of the crash. Hirsh is tasked with finding out what caused the crash. The cause of the crash could be as simple equipment failure or pilot error or something worse. Hirsh mentions the F-35 taken down by the drone swarm in “Murmuration” last season – nice callback show! Since both crashes were in the OSP’s backyard, she’s asking for their help. She is going to question Aiden but will need help looking for evidence near the crash site. Rountree is all in.
Hirsh tells the team that Aiden was on a test flight out of Point Magu when the plane crashed. The plane barely missed an apartment building. The Admiral sends Fatima and Rountree to the beach to interview witnesses being held there by LAPD. Shyla is going to the boat shed to meet Callen and interview the maintenance supervisor who got the plane in the air. Hirsh makes it clear, Special Agent Hanna can’t be involved with the investigation into Lt. Hanna. “I’m sure he’ll have no problem with that,” the Admiral says.
Callen calls Sam, who understands he can’t be involved with the investigation but isn’t thrilled. Sam is arriving at the hospital with Raymond. He asks Callen to keep in him the loop. Walking into Aiden’s hospital room, Sam and Raymond find Aiden with a walking boot on his right leg, some bumps and bruises but a big smile and a promise that he’s just fine. Aiden just finished a call with Kam. Raymond is thrilled to see Aiden and the feeling is mutual – though it isn’t ‘grandpa’, Raymond is “Major”.
The bruises on Aiden’s face are from the ejection. He has a concussion and a sprained ankle from the landing. Aiden is trying to remember what happened when Lt. Commander Hirsh arrives. She apologies for intruding while Aiden struggles to salute. He’s quickly told “at ease”. After introducing herself to Sam, she’d like to get started on Aiden’s official statement.
In the boat shed, Navy Maintenance Master Chief Brian Frazier is answering questions about his responsibilities inspecting all aircraft for Aiden’s squadron. If there is an incident with a plane, all logbooks and maintenance records for an aircraft are secured so they can’t be altered. The records are available to be reviewed at any time.
Aiden’s plane is a newer plane. It wasn’t due for a full maintenance review for another 100-hours. The plane went through the proper pre-flight inspection before “Sonic” took off that morning. “Sonic” confuses Callen and Shyla but Sonic is Aiden’s call sign. Frazier was shocked to hear about the crash – Aiden is a great pilot.
Callen asks about it being a test flight. It was and it is classified but the company behind what they were testing is Starling Aeronautics. Frazier really can’t say much but things with Starling are overbudget and behind schedule. Frazier’s CO would know more. Shyla goes to get the Admiral involved with contacting the CO.
Aiden tries to take Hirsh through the flight with Sam and Raymond sitting in on the interview. Things went off without a hitch flying to the area where he was going to put the plane through an exercise. All systems worked perfectly. Returning to Point Magu, he’s not sure what happened next. His memory is fuzzy. He knows he had to punch out but can’t remember why. Raymond suggests working backwards from what he can remember – that works for Raymond sometimes.
None of this is working for Hirsh. She notes that the autopilot was shut off before the crash – does Aiden remember doing that? He does not. Hirsh brings up that Aiden received several LOI’s – Letters of Instruction – for “pushing the envelope”. He purposely broke the sound barrier while flying over the continental United States. Raymond is shocked, Sam says Aiden would never do that. One look from Aiden and he did do it. Sam is not pleased but Raymond reminds his son that he wasn’t always “Mr. Perfect” as a kid. While Sam doesn’t see what breaking the sound barrier has to do with the crash, Hirsh tells him that Aiden’s performance, including past incidents of “flat-hatting” (showing off), are a part of the investigation. The Navy just lost a $94-million plane. Raymond wants to know if the afterburners are jewel-encrusted at that price tag.
Saying she only allowed Sam and Raymond to stay for the interview because they are decorated combat veterans, Hirsh tells them they have to stay quiet. Sam is offended Aiden’s integrity would be called into question. Hirsh orders the two senior Hannas out of the room.
At the beach, Fatima and Rountree learn nobody noticed anything until the plane crashed. No signs of a surface to air missile, which would have left a smoke trail, or a drone swarm. Some witnesses saw the hustler leave in his van. The beach has a license plate reader – they may be able to find him.
In Ops, the Admiral speaks to Master Chief Frazier’s CO, Commander Jose Espinoza. Espinoza explains that Starling is providing software that upgrade the electronic warfare capability. The plane, according to Espinoza, is a “flying computer” that can be improved by software upgrades. The Admiral asks if the software test could have caused the crash. Espinoza does not believe it could – the software test was not a part of Aiden’s return to base. The Admiral asks if there is someone he can talk to at Starling. Espinoza will tell the software’s project manager.
Outside of Aiden’s hospital room, Sam is outraged by how Hirsh is handling the case. Raymond is more on Hirsh’s side – she is doing her job. Sam is surprised by Raymond’s attitude – why was he cracking jokes? Where was the hardass that made Sam call him “Major”? Raymond is letting go of things he held so hard when he was a younger man. He’s sorry – sorry for what he did to Sam and what he did to Sam’s mother.
Sam didn’t appreciate Raymond’s tough love at the time but it made Sam the man he is today. And he loves Raymond for that. Raymond tells Sam that seeing the man he’s become allowed him to loosen his grip and now it is time for Sam to do the same thing for Aiden. Because Aiden can handle it.
Testifying, Aiden said he was struggling with the controls. The plane was no longer performing as it should. Hirsh asks why didn’t Aiden call in the plane issues. Aiden tells her he did. When she looks confused, he wonders if he didn’t. Hirsh asks if Aiden was trying to liven-up an otherwise boring flight back to Point Magu. The flight was being monitored at Point Magu and according to the data, everything was working fine until the autopilot was turned off. If Aiden turned off the autopilot, the cause of the crash would be pilot error – a likely career-ender.
Hirsh leaves Aiden, she has some paperwork to do. Raymond asks if she knows where the cafeteria is. She does and wouldn’t mind some lunch herself. The two leave Sam with Aiden, who is up and trying to pour himself some water. Sam asks how things are going - “badly”. Aiden tells Sam if the crash is due to pilot error, he’s done. But he can’t remember. Sam suggests going through what happened but Aiden collapses.
Sam gets Aiden back to his bed – the concussion is an issue. Raymond’s dementia may have been from concussions he received in the service. Sam had them too from football and to SEALs. Nobody knows for sure what happens. Raymond and Sam were told to shake things off. Aiden has to learn from them and take better care of himself.
A very impatient Shyla is waiting with Callen for the Starling Aeronautics project manager in the boat shed. Callen actually thinks they is good – project managers usually make NCIS visit them. Shyla asks if Callen thinks Aiden actually caused the crash. Callen turns the question on Shyla – what if he did think Aiden caused the crash. A good NCIS Agent looks past what they think to look at the case from every angle. Pilots make mistakes. The F-35 pilot program only takes the best and while high-end pilots hotdog it from time to time, it is all part of the job. So if it isn’t pilot error, what is it. Callen admits he doesn’t think it is pilot error but that’s not their side of the investigation.
Wandering into the boatshed is Jake Primiani, complete with his Starling Aeronautics embroidered polo shirt. He wants to get this over with – a tad nervous.
At the beach, Rountree asks Fatima if she thinks he’s making a mistake pushing for more punishment for Officer O’Neal. Fatima doesn’t think he is. He doesn’t know what to do. He was so angry that morning when he thought he lost his wallet. He’s had moments like that since the stop. Fatima sympathizes. Whatever Rountree choses to do, she knows he isn’t weak for making that decision. He doesn’t want this to define who he is as an agent. Fatima says he can’t control what others think. Some will always think badly of him if he fights. Others will know the principled person she sees every day. She wants him to do the right thing for himself – “tree may bend but tree don’t break.” Rountree likes that.
Fatima gets info on the license plate for the van. She asks the Admiral to run a Kaleidoscope search for the van. He can do that and doesn’t need the pat on the back Fatima offers. He’s no CYO soccer brat looking for a participation trophy. The van belongs to a Marco Madsen, the fish license hustler on the beach. He’s just a few blocks away.
Primiani is nervous – the software is being run in flight simulators to recreate what happened to Aiden but nothing matches. Shyla asks why the project is running behind. Primiani says they were not given enough time – there is never enough time for a project like this. The normal glitches and bugs happened early in the project and while it took time to fix them, the deadline stays the same. Primiani needs to get back to Point Magu to prepare another flight. Callen and Shyla release him.
Raymond is having a hard time with a vending machine. He wanted a Twinkie is told the machine is now cashless after COVID, according to a nurse. She gets him a Twinkie with her credit card and refuses to let Raymond pay for it. She also gets one for herself.
In his room, Aiden asks how “grandpop” is doing. Sam mentions Raymond’s good days and bad days. Aiden has a flash of memory – the engine flamed out. When the engine flames out, the autopilot automatically switches off. Commander Hirsh said the data says everything was working fine but it wasn’t. Sam goes off to find Hirsh.
Discovered in his van, Madsen tries to run from NCIS. That goes poorly. Rountree mentions the plane crash. Madsen says yes, a plane crashed. With some prodding, he remembers that the engine was flaming out. This confirms what Aiden remembers and disproves whatever data was given to Hirsh. While Fatima calls this in, Rountree wants to know about the fishing licenses.
The Admiral has another conversation with Espinoza. Another flight is testing the software so Kilbride wants Espinoza to know that an eyewitness confirms Aiden’s account of the crash. The engine cut out and only restarted when Aiden punched out. Behind Espinoza, the Navy flight personnel at Point Magu lost contact with the pilot of the second flight. The plane is losing altitude. Kilbride gets Aiden on the phone to try to walk Espinoza through what happened on his flight.
Aiden remembers who he almost got the plane restarted. He gives the instructions to Espinoza to give to the pilot – “Kegger”. While Kegger falls off the radar screen for a few seconds, the instructions work and both pilot and plane are saved. Hirsh witnessed Aiden’s heroics. She wants him to finish his statement. Sam asks about Raymond but Hirsh last saw him with the nurse by the vending machine.
Arriving at Point Magu, Callen and Shyla want to talk to Primiani, who does not want to talk to them at all. Plus there is no proof the software is the issue. Callen wonders how two of the best trained pilots in the world flying two separate cutting edge planes nearly suffer the same “never-before-seen” system failure. Primiani said they knew there was a flaw but it was patched months ago. The flaw – the new system can override the flight computer. But unless someone bypassed the fix, it couldn’t happen. And he wouldn’t do that. Primiani’s entire career is about making this system work.
Asked about who else could override the patch, Primiani says the computers are all air gapped and stored at Point Magu. Everyone on the flight and maintenance crew would have access to the computers but like Primiani, why would they risk their careers to override the patch. There is one computer that just records who logs in and out of the computers. Callen, Shyla and Primiani are off to check.
Walking into Ops, Fatima asks Kilbride for a “sitrep” – saying she always wanted to do that. The Admiral is not pleased. They have to investigate every Starling employee to see who could be either taking part in terrorism or industrial espionage.
Sam finds Raymond and his newly found nurse buddy walking back to Aiden’s room. The nurse is kind to Raymond and to Sam. Sam is surprised Raymond let the nurse help him. Constance, the nurse, is per diem at the hospital and does some side work in home healthcare. She passes Sam a card as she leaves.
Hirsh tells Sam that the investigation is moving from Aiden to Starling Aeronautics. Sam has been released from the sidelines and can return to work with NCIS. Raymond is going to stay with Aiden, Sam is on his way to Point Magu.
At the Starling Aeronautics office at Point Magu, one of the computer hard drives is missing. The Admiral wants everyone at Starling investigated but Fatima has found only one person with irregular financials – Master Chief Frazier. Frazier is walking to his vehicle when Callen and Shyla try to stop him.
Shyla calls base security as Frazier carjacks one of the base’s work trucks. Callen jumps into the flatbed and while Frazier tries to get away, Shyla chases in the NCIS vehicle. Sam is arriving at Point Magu as Frazier tries to leave.
Frazier gets out of the stole vehicle and puts his gun to his own head. Shyla tells him not to do it. Frazier says Starling knew about the troubled software and he tried to tell everyone about it. He allowed the second flight go take off to prove that Aiden’s flame out was due to the software and not pilot error. Sam talks Frazier out of killing himself, saying that he forgives Frazier for what happened as he knows others will. Frazier puts the gun down and is arrested. Shyla is shocked Sam can forgive but he is being gracious and is willing to try.
Back at Ops, Shyla and Fatima talk. Frazier wasn’t being quite so selfless. He was paid by one of Starling’s rivals to help tank the project. Fatima asks about Shyla’s earlier calls. The divorce is finalized. She’s surprised you don’t get anything official – it is just over. Fatima offers a celebration drink to make it official. Unless Shyla wants to be sad because Fatima can do that too. Shyla decides on celebration with a little sadness and they’ll be doing that once the after-action reports are filed.
A calmer Roundtree has a very neat desk except for his football for when his team beat the Admiral’s Tigers. Rountree asks the Admiral what would he do if he was Rountree. The Admiral makes it clear, it isn’t up to him, it is up to Rountree. That said, he’d like to see “the bastard’s hide nailed to the outhouse wall instead of just a slap on the wrist.” Rountree is worried about making NCIS’s job harder. The Admiral makes is clear that Rountree is a part of a very elite team and every member of that team supports whatever Rountree does.
Sam and Hirsh talk – Aiden will be back in the jet as soon as the flight surgeon clears him from his injuries. She also says that Aiden staying with the plane so long saved lives – he got the plane to fire and when it did, it missed an apartment building. Aiden saved lives and will be getting a commendation for it. Hirsh is impressed - was a “stick jockey” herself.
In his room, Aiden is playing backgammon with Raymond. Sam arrives with a Martin Baker Squadron patch. Martin Baker is the seat ejection manufacturer. Raymond breaks out his flask and is willing to share but Aiden has a concussion and Sam is driving so Raymond had a swig while the other Hannas have some water.
Sam brings up “Sonic” which confused Raymond. “Sonic” is Aiden’s call sign – a call sign is given to a pilot by the squadron after the pilot does something dumb. Like breaking the sound barrier of the United States. Aiden assures the older Hannas that he wasn’t the only one to go supersonic that day – he never saw the CO use that many swear words.
What head canon can be formed from here: For an episode that had a lot of family storylines – the Hanna men, Rountree and Jordyn’s nightmare experience, Shyla’s divorce – it was a rather sterile hour. Not a lot of emotion or passion about Aiden nearly dying or Aiden possibly ruining his career. Rountree who was so full of righteous indignation over what happened to him and to Jordyn is now looking to walk away. And Shyla seems more bothered that her soon to be ex is calling than their marriage is over. I would have liked a little more passion or fire in any of those storylines.
The episode had a season 12 feel – Sam was largely siloed with the family, Callen worked with Shyla, Fatima, Rountree, the Admiral and a little Shyla in scenes.
The random JAG officer was well played but why not find Bud or Sturgis or some other JAG series actors to play that role. Manetti was out, Tamlyn Tomita played a DHS Officer in season six on the show. Admiral Chegwidden's multiple appearances would have totally made this work.
The burn room was back! I missed that place. It was a great piece to the super-secret office set-up over the years.
Episode number: Episode 306, season 14’s fourth hour.

can you recommend any American historical romance novels (not like…Westerns, I’m thinking more like….Vanderbilt, Edwardian era, if that makes sense?) bc I have such a hard time finding them but I think you’ve recommended a few once upon a time
Yeah, for sure!
What I think you're looking for especially is the Gilded Age, which was that amazing time when New York City was the center of the universe, everyone was spending money left and right, there was a very exclusive, unofficial club called "the Four Hundred", which was predicated on this concept (proposed by a Southerner, not a New Yorker) that there were really only 400 truly fashionable people in the city. Orgies were had, horses were brought into ballrooms. It was LUXE.
The reigning queen of Gilded Age romance is for sure Joanna Shupe, one of my all-time favorite romance novelists. Her first three historicals are traditional England books (and they're very good) but since then, aside from a few novellas here and there, she pretty much exclusively writes Gilded Age. I have not read all of them, but only because I've been saving some of her backlist (and good thing, because she's taking this year off from full-length historicals).
I've read and would recommend:
Magnate--this is the first full book in her Knickerbocker Club series, which is basically four dudes doing mean rich man shit in various industries while getting kicked in the balls by love. The hero is a self-made man who ends up compromising the sister of one of the other guys in the club, and the beef is REAL between these dudes. Anyway, heroine is kind of okay with marrying him until she overhears at the wedding!!! That her brother basically forced the marriage. And then she's all HONEYMOON'S OVER!!! I DEMAND AN ANNULMENT!!!! It's not super complicated, but I found it really engaging and romantic.
Also, the heroine is delightfully dickmatized. There's a scene where the hero is like "I have these scars on my back because when I worked in a factory I got hit by a giant falling pipe, but the pipe was only falling because I did shitty work in an effort to get off the clock quickly and run to my favorite brothel". And she's like "oh. You POOR man!!!"
Uptown Girls--A trilogy about three sisters whose father is rich and one of the most influential people in New York Society.
First book is eldest daughter/daddy's lawyer (fixer) who grew up on the wrong side of the tracks; second is middle daughter/casino owner she asks to mentor her in running a casino, and he's like "sure" when really he wants REVEEEENGE upon her father; third book is youngest daughter (goody two shoes)/gangster who finds himself completely gut punched by her.
Fifth Avenue Rebels--A four-book series about a cluster of people (human disasters) falling in love. The first book takes place at a house party in Newport wherein shit goes the fuck down, and a lot of what spins out afterwards can be linked back to the party.
First book is childhood friends to lovers after the hero realizes said friend is about to get engaged to a handsome, absolute 10/10 (completely broke) duke; second book is a seduction lessons book in which the sluttiest guy in the series agrees to teach the shyest girl how to be hot in exchange for recipes from her chef so that he can start a supper club and become a real boy; third book is an enemies to lovers "oops we hooked up" book about a ruthless businessman and the woman who thought they were gonna get arranged married, but he's like "no" and she's like "WOOOOW" but then they hook up at a masked sex party that was in fact a real Gilded Age event; fourth book lets us know that stuffy 10/10 perfect duke actually likes it rough and has been having a back and forth with the wild child girl of the group, and now they're in an enemies to lovers dance that is sure to leave both of them CRUSHED.
She has another full Gilded Age series, the Four Hundred, but I've been saving that. Will probs read soon.
Harper St. George writes Gilded Age as well. Haven't read, will read, have heard good things about it.
Beverly Jenkins does write westerns, but she also writes Reconstruction books, and really hits a lot of different parts of America and time periods. I would recommend trying To Catch A Raven, a heist book she has wherein the leads have to pretend to be married to like? Steal back the Declaration of Independence? And of course, there's the classic Indigo, wherein the heroine works in the Underground Railroad and meets the hero right after he's had the shit beaten out of him. She nurses him back to health, he turns out to be a total rake type, and they have this long, epic, angsty love story. Deals a lot with the subject of slavery, so heads up, but I find it absolutely gorgeous.
