This one even has a name: "Like a Turtle"

Peter didn't believe that Neal lost his memory. Well, okay, he hadn't believed it until he came to pick up Neal on Monday morning to drive him to yet another neurologist and Neal opened the door.

Scuffed sneakers, white-washed blue jeans, green and brown checkered flannel shirt under a soft grey hoodie, glasses with thick black frames and no hair products whatsoever - maybe not even a comb.

That was the order in which Peter noticed Neal as he looked him over from his toes to the top of his head and back. Peter blinked. And blinked again.

Neal smiled at him uncertainly, stuffed his hands into his pockets and raised his shoulders up to his ears in what looked like an aborted shrug. He reminded Peter of a ridiculously cute myopic turtle.

"We need to find you a good doctor," Peter decided, all his doubts gone. "Now."

HEY! *Runs after you* Come back here!

Seriously though - interesting idea and I can really see Peter doubting it until he can't doubt it any longer. Going to write more or is this definitely a one shot?

Hi! Thank you for reading.

The idea for a long fic is there but I'm very, very bad at writing long fics. I mean, I was thinking - if Neal lost his memory, they would send him back to prison right? Because he couldn't help them remembering nothing. On the other hand, he would have been hurt doing FBI business so the FBI would be partially responsible... And that's how long ideas and no fics are born XP

Oh I know that feeling... big ideas are such a pain to get written down. I don't know if they'd send him back to prison if his memory is totally gone - at least not the same maximum security one because he'd be in danger back in that population - especially since he had been helping the FBI.

Besides you know Peter would fight like hell to keep him out of prison... and feel responsible for keeping him safe... hmm... oh great... IDEAS!

This is adorable! I love the fact that sight of Neal in an awful outfit was what convinced Peter he was really not himself!

"We need to find you a good doctor," Peter decided, all his doubts gone. "Now."

Perfect line!

I find it a little disturbing how vividly I could imagine this scene - right up to the Neal-imitating-a-turtle part.

Which is to say: it made me giggle, too.

ROFL! I love this so much! That last line is hilarious.

They'd probably have him committed to a hospital until his memory came back, and then decide if the original deal was still workable.

Do I need to say more than "LOL!"? :) 'Cause, really, I think that about covers it. :)

Excellent clinical evidence...

Sounds like Neal has Matt Bomer syndrome, hiding the beauty under cloaking devices.

LOLOLOL!
Adorable image!

I really hope you will continue!

As for your replies above, I don't think they would send him back to prison, unless they thought he was pretending to lose his memory.

Shoo, shoo, don't give me ideas ;) I mean, they wouldn't probably commit him to a regular hospital but maybe to a psychiatric ward/hospital? OMG, look at the bunnies! O.O

Hehe, I admit that I was inspired by this vid: link (http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=ZES9NV8F91M) :P Matt Bomer is such a cutie! \o/

Hehe, thank you! I just thought, what would convince Peter that Neal was not... Neal? ;P

Hehe, I actually giggled when I was writing it. I admit that the myopic turtle is my favorite part.

Thank you so much! Inspired by this vid: link (http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=ZES9NV8F91M).

I wonder. Would they send him to a) prison, b) hospital, c) psychiatric hospital? I mean, he wouldn't be able to help them being amnesiac, after all. But he would have gotten hurt "on the job", so the FBI would have been partially responsible for that... Bunnies, all the bunnies!!!

I love that vid :D

Without any research, my guess would be that they would give him a psych evaluation and a polygraph test to see if he is lying. After that, Peter is in touch with doctors and reading up on the best ways to bring back memory.

Wow...imagine if Moz caught wind of it *snicker*

*Tosses stuff to see if it sticks*
I love feeding the bunnies :D
