I Break Computers...

Marcone/Dresden

Marcone is the "geek" behind the Geek Squad counter, one of the best, with all the latest training that many of the other geeks are suspicious of. It's rumored he could hack into the FBI computers if he wanted to, could find anything ever put onto the internet and raise computers from the dead - even outsmart the Blue (now Black) Screen of Death.

Harry is the poor lost non-techie who keeps breaking his computer, and bringing it in to Marcone to fix. Strange things happen to Harry's computer, and he'll only trust Marcone to fix it.



Bonus points if Harry is secretly a little computer savvy (not as good as the Geek Squad, of course) and is breaking his computer on purpose. Extra cookies if Marcone knows it.

OR Bonus points if Harry is a writer, and Marcone gets curious one day if he knows Harry's writing or not, so he looks at one of the files. Only to discover that Harry writes cheesy/porny romances.

If you manage both, I will seriously fill something for you in return. Umm.. something I can manage, at least. Because I will be that grateful.

Hmmmm...can he write noir detective porn? Gay porn, that is? Like, the Donald Strachey Mysteries? Oooooooooooooooooh. And maybe he publishes under a pseudonym so -

*might be toying with this idea* Um. I'll be back.

It could be a little while...I have so many prompts on my plate and WIPs I really should finish before starting another one...

That's okay. I can wait. :) It's understandable, as there are several I've considered filling as well, but haven't gotten to... and, I think, 1 WIP. Gosh, I hope I haven't forgotten any!

*is curious* Are the Strachey Mysteries worth a read btw?

I actually haven't read them, but I watched the first two made-for-TV movies based on them, and was pretty pleased with how they came out. It was years ago, but cute boys solving crimes with a realistic depiction of an imperfect relationship? That hits my happy buttons.

wait, i've read this series. the tv movies are amazing, yeah, there are three of them.
third man out
shock to the system
Ice Blues
the books are quite different, quite a bit more dated, and like, uh...i don't like them very much. The guys are much moe cavalier in the books. To illustrate the difference between the books and the tv movies, the writer actually sent mean emails to the people making the movies...so yeah

I've heard pretty mixed reviews about the books, but yeah, this is in line with a number of them.

Oh, goodness. Still, tempted to drop £3.50 to see if I like it!
