it doesn’t matter what the crime is, it’s not their division.

things that are their division 

  • sarcasm
  • commiserating “all of these people are idiots” glances at each other
  • pastries
  • lounging around with feet on the desk
  • shit talking
  • ass kicking
  • buckets of homoerotic subtext
  • strong, independent female characters

ALSO DI Lestrade and DI Carlisle’s division:

  • Squabbling over who gets to drive every damn time they get in the car
  • Coming to blows over the last donut
  • Having their sidearms and badges confiscated for being loose-cannon coppers
  • Grudging respect toward their no-nonsense female DCI
  • Long bubble baths at the end of a tough day, sometimes separately but mostly together

#WE COULD WRITE A TELEPLAY AND SUBMIT IT TO THE BBC 

#i would be totally useless to the process #unless french and/or extensive knowledge of premodern european and middle eastern history somehow was useful

RIGHT THEN. We can work around those constraints.
