From det_don_flack
1. Should I listen to your sister about what you want to do for Valentine's Day?
*blushes* You-- don't have to. Don't go outta your way. I'd be happy just spending the night with you. I can try making dinner for us or order from Maria's restaurant.
2. If you couldn't work in New York, where would you want to work?
God, that's hard. I guess Jersey or Chicago.
3. Stupidest perp you've ever booked.
Okay, so this guy killed his wife's lover with a carving knife. Well when we show up to offer our condolences he has the knife - still covered in blood - on his freakin kitchen counter. His prints are all over it and he tries to run. Well the guy forgot to tie his shoes and he tripped over his own feet, fell down a flight of stairs. He did our work for us.
4. Stupidest thing a partner's ever done.
Underestimated me.
5. Favorite place to eat.
Bella Notte - Maria's family runs it in Little Italy.
From lieu_murphy
1. Flack: boxers or briefs?
That's none of your business!
2. Why did your mom name you Anna?
Her mama's middle name is Anna-Maria and mama just liked the name. It's from the Hebrew Channah which means "favored grace". Mama's always considered me her saving grace.
3. How do you like your coffee?
I'm not a big coffee person. But I usually take it with a cream and two sugars.
4. What's your weirdest case?
It was a guy who murdered three people thinking he was making an offering to some Mayan god. The whole setup was elaborate. And bloody. Very bloody.
5. What's a good time out for you?
Good conversation, maybe a little dancing. Just having fun with someone I care about.
From notantichrist
1. What's your favorite way to relax?
A glass of wine, some good music, and two cats in my lap.
2. If you couldn't be a cop, what would you be?
God, I don't know if I could be anything else. I have a bachelor's in Psychology, so I'd probably put that to use. Go into counseling full-time, maybe.
3. You can tell the girls you work with one thing and one thing only. What is it?
"People seldom see the halting and painful steps by which the most insignificant success is achieved." -Anne Sullivan
4. Favorite song?
I have too many that I adore. Right now? My favorite is Still by Matt Nathanson.
5. What's the one thing/motto/quote/golden rule/etc that you try to live by?
Chi cento ne fa, una ne aspetti - it's an Italian proverb which would translate to the equivalent of your saying that "what goes around, comes around".
From chasemd [Verse: Canon]
1. What's one thing you'd like to tell me but couldn't before (or face-to-face)?
I'm not a one-night stand kind of girl. I really can't have sex with someone and not connect. It's why I've only had two sexual partners as of date. And I have reasons for that I'm not comfortable sharing yet.
2. I know you adore your job (which I totally understand) but if you couldn't be a cop, what would you be?
Like I told notantichrist, I don't really know. I have a bachelor's in Psychology, so I'd probably put that to use. Go into counseling rape victims full-time, maybe.
3. What's your wildest sexual fantasy?
Uhh, that's kind of private. And I would lose my job for doing it.
4. What's your favourite romantic activity?
My last boyfriend was a musician. So he'd ask me to dance and sing to me. I love music, and having a man you love sing to you is a beautiful, romantic thing. Doesn't matter if his voice is amazing, cause when you look into his eyes and you hear his voice, all that energy is for you. It's heartfelt, and an incredibly deep connection is made. Music is from the heart, and singing to someone is something that's really deep and you're really vulnerable in that moment.
5. An innie or an outie? ;)
Innie. My sister had to explain that to me.
From foundherwings
1. Tiffany's: Stained glass or jewelry?
Jewelry, I guess. I don't have much jewelry. Not much of a need I guess?
2. Name one uniform who you'd like to smack upside the head if you wouldn't get reported for abusing an officer.
Pritchard. He always tries to cop a feel.
3. Favorite place to get coffee (purely for selfish reasons, my favorite place closed down).
I'm not a big coffee drinker but usually it's the bodega down the street from the Crime Lab.
4. Worst thing you've ever had to do on a dare?
Give a really ugly old man a lapdance.
5. [locked] What is it you see in Flack? [/locked]
[locked] He's different from other guys. You're not going to believe any of what I say, but he's a genuinely good guy. He's snarky, he has a great sense of humor, he appreciates fine wine, he's a good straight cop, and he... cares about people. I've given him plenty of reasons to run like hell, and he's still here. He doesn't... give up on people. He stands by you when you're hurting, he's loyal. Trustworthy. He looks at me and I can tell he likes me for who I am, not how I look. It's not about sex or bragging rights. It's about a genuine connection. I can't really articulate it better than that. All I know is that I really care about him, and I'm just happy to have him. [/locked]
From trust_issue
1. In this scenario there is no Flack. Got it? ...Okay. A dozen roses arrive at your desk after a long, hard week of fighting the preverbal losing battle. The sender wants to whisk you away for a weekend of sun, sand and mind blowing sex. Who sent them? Pretty boy, Josh Duhamel or bad boy, Colin Farrell?
Josh Duhamel. Cause Colin Farrell wouldn't like me.
2. Same scenario. He assures you no paparazzi, no hangers on, no Fergie, no strings... nobody will ever know. Think of it as... what happens on the beach... stays on the beach... with mind blowing sex. Do you go?
Probably not. No paparazzi my ass. There's always paparazzi. I get enough recognition in New York as it is. I don't want to become tabloid fodder. Now, if Flack wanted to whisk me away for sun, sand, and mind-blowing sex... I'm there yesterday.
3. You’ve been invited to a friend’s bridal shower. It’s a theme party “Bridesmaid dresses from hell” and the invitation requests that you wear the tackiest bridesmaid dress you’ve ever been forced to wear. (ala Katherine Heigl) What will you be wearing?
Considering the only friend I'd wear a dress for is Maria... I would go, begrudgingly, and would wear my bridesmaid dress from Adrian's wedding. Which wasn't even tacky.
4. What song best describes the day you had today?
Still by Matt Nathanson
5. Dang you’re busy! Now, you’re having a dinner party. If you could have anybody... famous, infamous, live, dead... who would you invite?
I would love to put Gandhi, JFK, Detective Munch, and Goren in a room.
From semi_auto_magic [Verse: Canon]
1. I'm gonna assume because you're into science, that you don't believe in magic. Do you think you could?
I believe that science can't explain some things. As for magic... I'm very skeptical, but I'm an open-minded person. I think I could.
2. What do you think it would take to make you a believer?
I'm a woman of science, Harry. Evidence, proof, seeing it with my own two eyes.
3. What are your favorite qualities in the opposite sex?
A good sense of humor, appreciation for sarcasm, understanding, good morals, and loyalty. Loyalty is a very big one.
4. Where would you like to see yourself in ten years?
I'd like to see myself make Detective, second grade or even first grade if possible. I'll be going on 39 then, so maybe I'll be an aunt. I'd like to be senior partner and lead detective on a few cases by then.
5. What does it take to impress you?
*smirk* Are you worried about impressing me, Harry? Nothing outrageous. I'm generally impressed by good people who stick around when it gets rough.
From cunningkrista
1) How did you get to trust a man again? It's weird, but I'm finding myself attached to Greg, and he's so kind... but I'm still scared.
To be honest, I don't know how it happened. I think that I realized I need to start taking chances again. Don's stuck by me through quite a bit, and he's proved to me that I can trust him.
2) Were you always a cop? Or did that develop as a response to something?
As I was growing up I wasn't sure what I wanted to do, but after my best friend was raped when I was 17 I knew I wanted to be a cop.
3) How's New York? Keeping it safe for me while I'm abroad?
New York is good, nice and safe.
4) What's your favorite breakfast cereal?
Lucky Charms.
5) What's your favorite musical artist?
Sara Bareilles. She's just fantastic.
From firesfallnangel
1. How was Valentine's Day? *winkwink nudgenudge*
In general, it was good. But what you're hinting at? Fantastic. You were right.
2. Do you own a Kama Sutra?
No.
3. If you don't, do you want to? (Seriously, it's good fun all around.)
Uh, I guess I could go for some reading?
4. What are the rules for doing enacting search warrants in Queens?
Rules for any search warrant. Probable cause and a warrant signed by a judge for the item in question.
5. Have you happened to see a certain thief -- she's about 5'8", brown hair, green eyes, great body -- happens to be in possession of a very pretty gun?
No, but I've been a little preoccupied lately.
