Only Words

So. I watched a lot of TV lately: Veronica Mars episodes 19 and 20. CSI 7x24, Supernatural 2x22... ( I'll put my thoughts behind the cut because they are utterly spoilery: )

Soon The Dead Zone will return. And I can look forward to several Doctor Who epis (I only watched up to Epi 5. Did anyone else think that "The Shakespeare Code" rocked? I've shown that epi to half a dozen people and they were all hooked. Strike!

Oh, and there's one not TV-related thing I'd like to mention. After a trial period of 6 months my company has hired me. I now have lay-off protection. I still enjoy my job and I like the collegues. But it's not an easy job, it requires great concentration. And it requires me to find English words for items that I couldn't even name in German. Thanks to my job I learnt expressions like "press stud storm flap". Yay me. At my age it's not easy to learn new stuff, and the software we use often drives me crazy, but the bottom line is: work is good. Having a bit of money of my own is good. *smiles*
*waves*

Tadaaa, here it is, my first CSI-fanfic. No wait, don't run away. Please? You can read it as a detective story, even if you don't watch the show. Don't make me beg.
If you need a quick info what the characters look like, go here. Anyway, the story is plotty, more than anything else, and just a tiny bit shippy. The R is because I talk about forensic stuff - whcih is totally not as graphic as what you see on the show.

Oh, and the story will be posted in several installments (probably four).

TITLE: Death of a Santa
CHARACTERS: Gil Grissom, Greg Sanders and a few minor characters (most of the other characters are on Christmas leave)
WARNINGS: R-ish - I will describe an autopsy, but that's about it. Oh, and if this suddenly becomes slashy, it will be subtextual, not explicit
TIMELINE: Nowish, i.e. S7, except as far as I know Grissom and Sara never were together
