They are such fierce bitches together. They are also fierce bitches apart which makes them so much better. I love how well suited they are for each other. Alex is younger but she is every bit as smart and clever and badass as Nikita is. They are really the only people who are cool enough for each other.

I agree with you so much about Alex. I've been constantly impressed with the fact that the writers have made her smart and capable. She constantly impresses me.
