Don't bet against me

Title: Don't bet against me
Genre: Drabble from Kono's POV 
Rating: PG for violent ideas
Warnings/Spoilers: Mentions of Hana 'a'a Makehewaep 1.12
Summary: A brief look at Kono's mind when she's watching McGarrett and Hesse meet.
Disclaimer: Just letting my imagination have a bit of fun with someone else's characters and plot. 

Thanks to purple_spock for her Beta-ing!


Steve had asked Kono not to kill Hesse, and he was the one person who had more reason to want Hesse dead than she did. The risk of inadvertently setting off the bomb finalized her decision not to kill Hesse in cold blood. No, "cold blood" wasn't right. Her blood felt like lava - thick, hot, destructive. But fury could make her blind. Breathe. Chin needed her. For years she had needed him, needed him as her protector, teacher, friend, and, more recently, teammate. For the first time, he needed her. She would not fail him.

Settle. Aim. Breathe. Pull.

I just want to mention my love for the "Kono Pout" you've got there.

She's so photogenic, isn't she?

Oh yes, I'm quite envious of her.

Nice work, we don't see enough of Kono's perspective in fic and that episode really showed what she is capable of.

I'm really glad to see her continuing to Kick Butt and take names. Mad love for the moment when she threw those three punks out of their lair in the episode two weeks ago in those zip things I can't remember the name of and said "they can get tighter". It was nice continuing to see her tough.

Great job! : ) I can't wait for the next thing you write. And I agree, there's not nearly enough quality Kono in the show, and I hope they start giving her more depth. And you're welcome for the beta-ing! : D Anytime.

Nice! Kono's POV for the win.

It cracked me up so much I had to change my name to it. xD And I haven't looked back.

I really like this. I think Kono has a lot of potential for character development on the show and I'm glad to see a fic from her pov. Great job!

[identity profile] illfindmyway.livejournal.com 2011-01-16 06:58 am (UTC)(link)

I think they're giving her better and better moments on the show. I hope they continue in the recent vein they have been of showing her as a strong and feminine girl who can and will kick your ass when you're out of line.

I liked this a lot! True to the character and I'm always happy to see Kono fic. :)

Why, thank you very much!

I love her. I'd like to do more on her and I probably will (eventually) when I run out of steam on my Danny/Steve kick. Have you read purple_spock 's drabble as well?
