Oh, I SO did it. I didn't think I could but I did it.
Granted, it's only the first chapter, and only 700-ish words. And it's unbetaed. And I'm not sure if it works at all. And it was way harder to write than it should have been, because I had to spend weeks thinking up the particulars of the case and how it would end before I could even put pen to paper (or fingers to keyboard, as it were). And it turns out I'm crap at casefiles. And Don Flack has joined Lennie Briscoe, John Munch, and Bobby Goren as Characters Who I Cannot Write For To Save My Sorry Life.
But I did it. I have here the first part of a CSI: NY casefile. Right on time. And at some point, I intend to actually finish it.
Teh yay.
Written for
karaokegal's Come As You're Not Halloween Fic Costume Party.
Title: Perfects (Chapter 1)
Fandom: CSI: NY
Characters or Pairing: All Characters (including Sid, Peyton, and Angell); no pairings
Rating: PG-13 for violence. Also, my character said a swear.
Word Count: 729 (first chapter only)
Summary: The victims are unrelated. The MOs are identical. The crime scenes are perfect. The New York CSIs have no leads, no evidence, and no way to know when the murders will begin again.
Notes for warnings, spoilers, loving on your Beta, etc.: No specific spoilers, but takes place early Season 3
AND MOST IMPORTANT:
Why it’s a costume: Because I've never written a casefile before in my life. And I very rarely write CSI: NY. And I rarely write pure gen. And it's multi-chapter, where I prefer one-shots or collections thereof.
