    Summary

    “My research indicates operatives work best in teams,” Finch says to her out of the blue when he next hands her a social security number on a post-it note from the machine.
    She realizes he means ‘pick a buddy’ and she says back, “hell no.”

    (Or, Finch offers Shaw the choice of Leon or Root as her new tech support. The machine makes sure its a good fit.)

    Summary

    The Seraphim and the Wingless live in relative peace in the Light Realm. Most of the people there don't notice the corruption that has been infecting the Realm around them. The Fallen and the Unknown are taking over the streets.
    Harold Finch sees everything that is happening, but is powerless to stop it--that is, until he manages to raise John Reese from the Lower Realms.

    Those that Fade
    Can Rise again
    But they'll need a love far greater
    Than any they've known
    And a sacrifice they'll never truly understand
    To see the Light again.

    Summary

    The machine always knew a good deal but no one was supposed to offer it one. No one was supposed to think they could. “John, what have you done?”

    Summary

    Post Season 1 Finale - Reese finally finds Finch, though not in a good state. "It was an odd pair to say the least. Not that working at a New York hospital brought up normal people. Quite the contrary. And yet the nurse had a feeling these two weren't as unusual as the rest. That they were special. If that made any sense." Friendship only.

    Reese thought the first numbers following Finch's rescue would be as close to a return to their normal routine as possible. Finch thought things would get better after he was rescued. Turns out they were both wrong.

    Summary

    “Pack a suitcase, Harold. You’re staying at my place.” Reese said as he returned to the library. Finch turned his chair to face him, “Would you care to explain, Mr. Reese? Or shall I simply assume that you’re once again completely ignoring employer-employee protocol?” he asked dryly.

    Summary

    Root didn't have a weakness. She was alone in her convictions, and the only thing that could change them was destruction of any and every way she could ever possibly get to The Machine. The problem with Finch was that he did have a weakness. A very big weakness, and it was in the shape of a man.

    A man that had put himself between Finch and danger and would willingly kill anything that dared to threaten Finch. A man that had given Finch a path to walk down that led to redemption for himself as much as it was for the man. A man that gave Finch a companion, and a family, even if the latter was in the shape of a damaged ex-CIA operative and a dog trained to protect whatever the man ordered it to.

    Finch didn't know when he'd lost himself in Reese. When the lines had blurred enough between them that he was willing to die if he couldn't save Reese: just as Reese was willing to die if he couldn't save Finch.

    Summary

    True, I talk of dreams,
    Which are the children of an idle brain,
    Begot of nothing but vain fantasy,
    Which is as thin of substance as the air
    And more inconstant than the wind...
