buck: why is everyone staring at me?

ravi: you just called bobby dad. you said ‘thanks, pops.’

buck: what? no, i didn’t. i said ‘thanks, cap.’

bobby: do you see me as a father figure, buck?

buck: no. if anything, i see you as a bother figure ‘cause you’re always bothering me!

chimney: hey! show your father some respect!

My first thought: Futakuchi is such a pain in the arse, just like Jake

My second thought: Aone as Holt is love.

Third thought: Kogane has Charles Boyle energy.

Subsequent thoughts: Moniwa is an Amy, Mai is pretty badass like Rosa, Kamisaki is built like Terry.

ok I know it took so long but it’s here!!! i’m the worst. This is also a third part of the b99!au

PART 1 - PART 2 - AO3

“I’m not trying to rush you or anything,” the words trip out of Harry’s mouth as his hands run through his hair, over and over again. “But that clock says 10 minutes.”

Niall looks over his shoulders where Harry is walking from one side of the room to the other. He rolls his eyes and takes part of his equipment off his body. Suddenly, the small store under the building seems to start getting hotter and hotter, and for the first time in a very long time since Niall got out of the Academy, his hands start to shake and his breathing becomes erratic.

“The building has been evacuated,” they Captain Whelan’s voice hear over their radios, Niall lets the air leave his lungs. “Horan, Styles, report at the entrance.”

“Negative,” Niall responds. “We found the bomb, Captain.”

The line is silent for a couple of seconds, giving Niall enough time to react and slowly take apart the control panel of the bomb in front of him.

“Get out of there.” Basil’s voice is firm, without any signs of hesitation.

“Apparently, it’s activated by the movement from the door of this room,” Harry says and Niall can’t remember hearing him his shaken before. “We noticed that when I opened said door.”

When they got the call of someone tipping a sigh of a suspect Niall and Harry have been looking for over a month, they thought it was going to be a good afternoon. They would make an arrest and then get some dinner, but now, almost five hours later, they may start to think this is a trap.

Harry keeps talking with the team outside the building and the conversation starts getting louder and louder but for Niall, it’s just a numb noise in the back of his mind as his fingers locate the different wires of the bomb. They only have five minutes and even when Niall is capable of a considerable number of things, including finishing his training in the bomb squad, he doesn’t feel adequate to have both of their lives on his hands. No, when his head has been full of things these last couple of months, especially after Harry kind-of declare his feelings for him in the ambulance and then not remembering anything about it.

Niall choose to forget it, Harry never talked about it and maybe it’s for the best but something has been eating Niall up from his chest to his toes since that moment when Harry woke up in the hospital room holding Niall’s hand, letting it go almost the very second he opened his eyes and greeting him like some high school friend he hasn’t seen in ten years, not even looking at him.

And it’s been harder working with him, seeing him every day, hearing his stupid jokes and cleaning up his messes, sharing the wins and making him smile. It has been harder than all the time Harry was undercover because Niall realized he may have been a little bit in love with his partner.

“I don’t even know if he knows what he’s doing,” Harry says over the radio and Niall takes the penknife from the pocket of his pants.

“Shut up, Harry,” Niall says under his breath and takes the blue and red wire under his fingers.

He can feel the sweat running down his forehead and his neck, getting his shirt wet in all the wrong places. His hands are trembling but he has to do this, the bomb squad is not going to make it on time and Niall is not alone in this room. Harry is here with him, talking to Liam, describing the bomb, looking around the room, asking for someone to call his mother and sister and Niall feels sick.

“If you get us out of this one, I’ll kiss you.” Harry laughs behind him and Niall wants to cry.

“That is not motivation, Harry.” He says calmly as he positions the razor under the red wire and cuts it, only to see the clock dropping from four minutes to one in a blink of an eye.

“Shit,” Harry says and Niall can feel his breathing on his neck.

“Please shut up,” Niall screams. “Just shut up.” His hands are dancing over the rest of the wires as he gives the machine a quick look.

“Okay, listen,” Harry says when he sees the clock drop to fifteen seconds. “You are the best partner I have ever had.” Niall can hear the smile and the tears on his voice. “I am so damn lucky to have met you for the time I did.”

“Harry,” Niall says but it’s interrupted by the man ducking down in front of him.

“No, wait.” He says, closing his eyes and putting his finger over Niall’s lips. “I don’t want to die without telling you this.” He takes a deep breath and continues, looking at Niall in the eyes for what it seems the first time in months. “Seeing you, talking to you, being around you is what gets me out of bed every morning.”

Niall’s breath gets stuck in the middle of his throat and his pulse starts to accelerate, he can almost feel it on his fingertips.

“And I know I’ve been an asshole lately but I’m scared. Of a million things, scared of freaking you out, scared of ruining this partnership, scared of losing you because I remember every single word I said that day, and I know that you know that but I’m scared because I think I may be a little bit in love with you.”

Niall’s mouth is wide open, just like his eyes unlike Harry’s that are close, waiting for an impact that is not coming and he eventually realizes that when he slowly opens his eyes, only to find Niall sitting in the floor with his legs crossed, looking at him like the moon hangs over his head, biting his lips, maybe to stop himself from laughing or throwing himself into Harry’s arms.

“I deactivate the bomb,” Niall says with a smirk on his face. “I tried to tell you but you wouldn’t shut up.”

That’s when the whole team laughs over the radio and Harry can feel the heat exploding all over his face. Liam and Zayn talk about how they can’t wait to get to the precinct and tell Louis about this and then they hear Whelan lecture them as the correct use of the police lines of communication before Niall turns his and Harry’s radios off.

Harry stands in front of him when Niall extends his hand to him and even when he has nothing else to say, his mouth keeps opening and close as he is trying to bury himself even further. And Harry has been denying himself of doing this, openly looking at Niall’s face because of the very reason of being afraid of getting lost into those blue eyes or getting caught looking at those lips, which seem to be moving but Harry can’t hear anything coming from Niall’s mouth.

“What?” Harry asks, blinking a couple of times, letting his mind catch up with the rest of his body.

Niall smiles and Harry wants to cry by how good he looks with his messy hair and his rosy cheeks, his dirty hands and the unbuttoned vest he decided to wear today.

i’ve been thinking for a while now to start a b99!tom au ?????

keep in mind though, they’re not all going to be exactly like the characters they’re representing! Some characters in the show are married, two have kids but this squad is gonna be their regular ages!

below are the characters who I am comparing to/familiarizing with the name afterwards

jake peralta as tom holland

amy santiago as the reader

rosa diaz as zendaya coleman

gina lenetti as laura harrier

charles boyle as jacob batalon (i know y’all are going to hate me for not having harrison play charles because Charles’ is jake’s best friend, but read my first notice above lovelies! plus my man jacob is so underrated and charles is an underrated king)

terry jeffords as harrison osterfield

tony revelori as raymond holt

so that’s the cast/fic list! Again, I am not making the cast for this fic exactly like the characters in the show. None of them will have kids, just their personalities are going to be VERY similar. And no, I’m definitely NOT whitewashing terry. I thought of having Tony by Terry, but Harrison would be Holt so that doesn’t solve it because Holt is African American too. I felt like Harrison would be a lot like Terry if he were in a show. And honestly, I can see Tony being like Captain 😂

leave me your thoughts!

here are some facts about the character’s personalities that are in the show! I’m not going to say what they’re going to be like in the fic because that’ll just give it all away. But it’ll be very similar 😉

jake peralta: funny, kind, caring, an actual five year old obsessed with die hard and has the maturity level of a ten year old but knows when to take things seriously. Him and Charles on the show are the wokest white men you will ever see in white men on television. Very dorky, a softie who isn’t afraid to show it. Did I already mention he’s a major fucking adorable dork. Super duper jokey with amy santiago;)

amy santiago: smart, and i mean really smart. Book smart, nerd, dork, but both in good ways. She never gives up on anything and she’s an actual adorkable nerd I would die for if I didn’t say that already. Kind, loyal, funny, trusting, generous. And super duper flirty (noice) with jake peralta;)

rosa diaz: headass but in a good way, tough, strong, doesn’t like to show emotion, very closed off (michelle jones who) and doesn’t share anything private with anyone, mysterious. But she’s also a secret softie and would do anything for her friends who she considers family. She seems tough and she sure as hell is strong, but so is her soft side for her family and for helping others. And the girl makes kicking ass look easier than drawing a stick figure.

gina lenetti: sassy, spunky, keeps up with the trends, doesn’t take anyone’s bullshit. She radiates strong feminism energy. She owns the precinct (and she’s not even a cop). She is jokingly picking on amy from time to time. But she has a secret soft spot for both amy and rosa. She’s a queen and she knows it. She’s tough and loves to flaunt it.

charles boyle: someone the actor who would describe him as, “someone who isn’t completely manly”. But that’s COMPLETELY okay! Everyone loves charles! He’s weird and silly at times, but that man’s heart is bigger than jake’s love for die hard :) he may not seem manly or physically strong (talking about the real charles not jacob) but that man is a goddamn great detective. He never gives up and always brightens everyone’s mood. As well as making everything awkward.

terry jeffords: THE GENTLEST GIANT YOU WILL EVER MEET. terry loves his family and he watches over his own squad of detectives (he’s a sergeant) like they’re his own kids. he’s a pretty huge family man. (in my fic, harrison isn’t going to have kids or a wife like terry has because again they’re all around their real ages but he still has the biggest heart for his sister and parents. And monty ofc). Known yogurt lover, very handsome and well built which everyone points out all of the time (like in the show). Kind, loyal, likeable and doesn’t have one single mean bone in his body. (Even when he was arrested for just being a black man).
