I am intrigued by that AU potential! Alicia'd need a pretty compelling backstory to get her into criminal activity, but you're right that they'd be fantastic at it. Which reminds me that I'd seriously love to see more of Alicia and Peter solving problems together outside their relationship - I'm fascinated by their attitudes towards each other's careers.

Yeah, I--honestly don't see what Alicia sees in Will? Presumably it's a combination of their long-ago history, sexual attraction, and her need for an outlet outside Peter. (Who is a terrible human being but so much more compelling than Will, in my opinion, and though I'm not saying I'd want a happily ever after for them even if it were possible, I'm far more invested in the push-and-pull of their marriage than I could ever be in her affair with Will.) I was so, so pleased with the fakeout they pulled at the end of S2, mostly because I was so worried they were going in a different direction. I should have known to trust them.

I do love watching Will, on the other hand, whenever he's interacting with Diane. Speaking of the push-and-pull of relationships with a great mix of trust and betrayal. Love them together--though not romantically.
