Challenge #5

In your own space, promote a canon/talk about a part of canon that you love.

This is the perfect excuse to talk about how I've been rewatching Numb3rs. I've been blessed with a truly horrible memory and haven't watched it since its original run, so it's like getting to watch it for the first time all over again. I remember nothing, and it's wonderful. lol

My absolute favorite part of the show is the relationship between Alan, Charlie, and Don. Their family is so funny and sweet. I love how close they are, how they work through things together on cases and in their personal lives. Don and Charlie really sell being brothers. So many times, I've laughed, thinking something they did or said was exactly like me with my own siblings. And Judd Hirsch is a gem. He has great familial chemistry with people. I loved his relationship with his dad in Forever too. I like the cases on the show and love the friendships, Charlie/Amita, everything Larry ever says (haha), but the Eppes family is my happiest Numb3rs place. I love them.

I love that! Haha I wasn’t part of the fandom back in the day. I watched and loved it, but I’m only just now starting to check out the fic for it during my rewatch. I’m hoping there’s a lot of gen because that’s the Numb3rs craving I have and I feel like I could hang out here for a good while. I love all of these characters so much.

I didn't write gen, but it seemed like there was a lot of it! I imported numb3rs_awards to DW so you can check out all the Gen fic nominees/winners there, if you want. (Iirc, most of the gen fic was posted at ff.net. I remember some loooong case fic.)

Back in the day I also created A Guide to Numb3rs on LiveJournal for newbieguide. There were a couple of gen comms that appear to still be in existence (if not active) so you can also check there for fic.

Oh, and I also imported numb3rsficfind to DW; you might find something there you like.

THANK YOU! This is so cool. I’m going to bookmark all of this and look around. I remember how fragmented the pre-AO3 fic community was, so this is really helpful. I really appreciate it! :)

You're welcome! There were So. Many. N3 comms back in the day.

I'm excited to look through them all. :D
