I am such a typical slasher...

"Come on, we both know you've been a lot more than just a teacher to Charlie" said from Charlie's dad to Larry over chess.
I don't go for age gaps nor do I go for student-teacher relationships and Charlie was a former student of Larry's. Sure they're now colleagues and pretty much equals. I mean Charlie looks over Larry's equations for him -- I can't see any better indication that they don't particularly see each other as student and teacher any longer.
But, still, as a consummate slasher that I am, I can see such suggestive behavior. Ever since last night when I saw my first episode of Numb3rs and now that I've seen the first nine episodes of the first season.
And seriously, I'm seeing so many parallels here. I see connections to The Sentinel with Charlie looking so much like Blair -- short, curly hair, academic even if Charlie is a full-fledged genius and professor when Blair was just an average grad student. And he's in applied mathematics which of course reminds me of Sheppard since didn't he major in applied math in fanon? And there's always the whole Larry is a physicist who was studying zero point energy.
If I weren't completely against the whole incest thing, I would so have a Don/Charlie thing going on big time. They would be cute but since they're brothers, I am liking the whole brothers/male bonding thing a lot as well. it's always been my thing. I love brothers... *sigh*
Anyway, while researching Numb3rs (yes, I've already confirmed I'm a total geek), I found out that the guy who plays Charlie is that snarky elf Bernard from The Santa Clause 2. And now that I think about it, he does look awfully a lot like it. Older yes, but still kinda impish. I am starting to like Numb3rs though -- it's a lot of math but I just love my geniuses. ^^
