Summary: A simple stop for a late breakfast doesn’t quite go as planned for Hood and Rachel.


“Rachel?”  Hood asked, his head propped up on one hand.  His voice was soft, just loud enough to be heard over the quiet radio, and his gaze was unfocused as he stared out the window at the passing foliage.

“Hmm?” Rachel replied.  The blonde was focused on the car in front of her going fifty-five on the bloody highway and really wasn’t paying too much attention to man her passenger’s seat.  She pressed down on the accelerator, inching closer to the old Cavalier and silently cursed the car alongside her blocking the passing lane.  While Rachel by no means had a lead foot, she preferred to be going a few miles over the limit, not a couple under.

“Could you take the next right?”

“What?  Hood, why?” Rachel groaned, “If you need another pit stop, you can hold it.  We’re half an hour from D.C. and I told you not to buy an extra large coffee.”

Women in TV

Maybe it’s just the shows I watch or the books I read, but I find one strange similarity between them all… there is rarely, if ever, a woman as the ultimate lead character.  In fact, off the top of my head, I can only name Star Trek: Voyager and Sanctuary as shows I’ve watched with a female lead.  But I’ve got a notoriously bad memory, so let’s make a list (in a rough order of air time from the 2008-2009 season).

Buuut I’ll put it under a cut cuz I really hate uncut long articles on blogs.
