Hey, anyone done any Syd/Will fics?
I've got a bunny for one, but it's combined with another idea.
If you don't want to read, I'm putting the bunny in spoiler tag. if you quote, snip the bunny out for saving on page scrolling, yeah?
Plot Bunny!

That's all I got for now.
edit - forgot I put 1996 in the first paragraph, which was headered' by '1995'. oops.
2nd edit - put the bunny in spoiler tag, and will post during-season-1 part of the bunny in a second post.

Plot Bunny!
1995
Michael Vaughn began his off-book investigation into his father's death after getting his father's journals early. Like, really early - 1995, he's only been in the Agency for a year.
It began with a simple matter of going home early. Or should that be, on time? If he'd stayed later, regardless that he was tired, he never would have caught Brill coming to see him. Brill would have chickened out in handing WilliamMicheaux Vaughn's journals to him so soon. And Michael wouldn't have known that his dad wasn't killed by Irina Derevko in 1979, that it had been faked. He would have met Irina, thinking she had killed his dad. And she wouldn't have been able to disabuse him of that, both trust and that she couldn't chance that Prophet Five could make a move before any of them were ready.
No, the new path, Vaughn quickly learned from the Journals about Prophet Five, and vaguely recalls when he and his dad were running from the group in the mid-70s, when he was 2. They'd been helped by Irina Derevko. Unaware of her past association and cover idenity, he begins to work with her and another. Irina has introduced him to the woman who eventually left the CIA and became the 6th-then-8th most wanted Terrorist known as Renee Rienne.
Concurrently, Will Tippin is a Journalism student, and is affected by a ripple. Had Vaughn not gone home early, Will wouldn't have been driving behind him, and wouldn't have had to stop for a Red light. But he did, and that ripple grew. He observed something he shouldn't have, and unfortunately, he's begun to investigate on his own.

1996
Will's investigation has been, informative. It has also taught him much about tracking, and shaking pursuit, and maintaining his own Aliases. An unfortunate side-effect is that, still a student at college he has a constant need for funding, and only a mysterious backer known as "The Man" has assisted him in paying for flights all over the world. But everything he knows, he learned himself. He's not been spoon-fed information, or had information shovelled onto his head. After a year, he knows about SD-6, knows the truth of the group, and only by strokes of luck has he not been noticed by them and killed. He knows that all low-level agents of SD-6 believe that it is a Black Ops division of the CIA. But by chance, while staying in LA with his sister to recuperate from a rough patch of his investigation taking him about South America, he meets this gorgeous under-grad named Sydney through is friend, Francie.
Meanwhile, Michael Vaughn has been under investigation several times for off-book activities, but each time he has been vindicated, his cover stories being 'confirmed'. But he's no longer on the SD-6 case. With his friend, fellow CIA Agent Michelle Moreau both close to a break-through yet close to being found out, however, he's wondering if he can't do more if he leaves the Agency.
At SD-6, Arvin Sloane becomes aware of a possible Security Breach, a mysterious person known only as 'The Investigator' has been noted by other SD cells as having been to various locations of SD-6 operations as little as a week after various missions, and they have no pattern to help identify just how 'The Investigator' is able to do so. All surveillence of the man has proven that the person varies his appearance often, even in the same locations, and they have been unable to use cross-referencing of flight passenger manifests to identify possible suspects, as 'The Investigator' either doesn't use commercial flights, or more likely, uses multiple Aliasses for both entry and exit to each locale.
In South America, Irina Derevko and Alexander Khasinau observe the first mission of their new recruit: Julian Sark. His mission? Find Nadia.

1999
Over the last 3 years, Syd has gotten to know Will, and knows that he's got a much worse time of travelling all over the world as a freelance journalist. He's already won various awards, and while he doesn't realise that she knows, she does know how he feels about her. But then, she doesn't feel the same, as she's been with Danny for 2 years. Her job at SD-6 has only gotten busier too, as there have been recent increases of activity with K-directorate and FTL, along with hints of another organisation that they have no information on.
Arvin Sloane, tired of having no leads on whom this 'Investigator' is, whom has also evaded all attempts at capture with increasing distance, finally gives in and assigns the case to Jack Bristow, hopeful that his cover in Airline part exports will help.
Irina and Khasinau are at the start-stages of a plan to gain a lot of rambaldi artefacts, but while they feel they can trust Sark, they are increasingly worried about the behavior of McKenas Cole, who has shown increasing recklessness in recent missions. The plan to raid SD-6 and FTL isn't going ahead yet, because of this. At the same time, Irina receives a call...
Will has made a break-through in one of his other investigations that are funded by 'The Man', and needs help to press his advantage. And so, he calls 'The Man'. The plan they agree to, he will fly out to Taipei and meet Sark at their safe house. Their mission will be to beat SD-6 to the punch, and steal something called 'The Mueller Device'. There's just a problem, one neither realises. SD-6 are on-site when they get in.
Later, while Sark is getting the device to Khasinau, Will is thinking hard about discovering that his best friend works for SD-6, and hopes to high hell she isn't aware of the truth.
Of course, returning to LA, Will greets Syd at the airport and offers to drive her home, wondering if he should say something or not, but then they arrive at her and Danny's place...
