Just to Remind You

by randolhllee

Shaw and Root after Samaritan goes down and Shaw comes back. Root can't stop finding new ways to remind everyone that Shaw kissed her. Plus, code names, John-baiting, and surprise kissing. This is a continuous story, but I'm calling it a series of drabbles because (a) they're all short and (b) the tone varies more than I like in a single work.
