MUSING / Jean Vicquemare - Tumblr Posts
I'll designate you __ to lovers ━ allies.

what starts off as a partnership by obligation turns into one by choice. maybe you don't think of them that way at first, but after you realize that you two work incredibly well together, the feelings just... fall into place. of course it's only natural that they should remain by your side. of course you would take risks to keep them safe, and they would do the same for you. you can't imagine facing something without them now. it's like they were always there. what's more, the bond you've forged over the years is doubly strong for having made the sharing of mental and emotional states necessary. you've stuck with each other through the stress, the breakdowns, but also the victories, the laughs, the brief moments of frivolity. now those things come naturally. you know nobody more intimately. you are able to take care of each other. you can probably make it through anything. you have so far, at least, even if there were some losses along the way.
Sorry but Kim and Jean's possibly implied dynamic is so so funny to me. Jean admires him as a paragon of upstanding police work ("We'd be honored to have you") while, if I'm reading into it right, Kim shows him violent disdain in return by calling him Mr. Vicquemare. If he calls Harry "Detective" or "Lieutenant" when he's pleased and "Officer" when he's mad, and feels disrespected that Harry keeps calling him by his first name instead of Lieutenant, refusing to call Jean by his title feels like very subtle but harsh disrespect.
And it's for insulting Harry's karaoke.
Jean wants a mutually respectful relationship with the most professional thing to ever happen to C-Wing but has failed to understand that Harry is Kim's little meow meow now
Taking someone's cigarette out of their mouth: Multiple meanings - used a lot in media to convey control, power play, very masculine, I'm your boss and this is mine now, get over it. Mildly flirty, look at me, all in your space and shit, seductive. You're not allowed to smoke, because I say so.
Putting the cigarette back in their mouth afterwards: Ground-breaking. Would be less erotic to just fuck honestly. Who does this?
