I also need a better Justified icon.

[healingmirth]

I have no idea where Justified fandom hangs out. I don't usually have an overwhelming urge to participate, because much of what I want from fandom in general is trope-y or AU or worldbuilding and OCs out of nowhere or general ridiculousness, and Justified is just a really good show, you guys.

All that is to say that pretty much the only time I read Justified fic is when it shows up like magic on my reading page, or this year when I saw a Yuletide letter on, like, the 24th that mentioned Raylan and Tim getting drunk or discovering they having something in common.

So, now that I can say "omg you should go read all the Yuletide Justified fics" without either sekritly self-reccing, or pointedly leaving my own fic out, uh, you should go read them

Summary:

"You could've asked us for help," Raylan said.

"I was kind of enjoying being the only person in the office whose personal life and professional life didn't overlap," Tim said.

"Hey!" Rachel said. "That was one time."

Bookmarker's Notes:

Team! Being on the same side! Not they're usually working against each other, but you do get the sense that Raylan spends a lot of time testing their patience and Raylan spends a lot of time feeling beleaguered.
