Holy. Crap. I had to go digest this for half an hour after I read before I could up with something sort of coherent.
I kind of love how people have rallied around the 'Lexie as totally traumatized' idea because, well, it's fitting with what we know of her, her place in the chaos of all of this, and it makes for really, really good fic.
He's asleep when she walks in. On his back, one arm, his right, flung out across the mattress just so. He's thrown the quilt to the side, it's more on the floor than it is on the bed and the sheets? The sheets that are tangled around his legs and draped loosely across his scarred torso?
Those sheets are red.
I knew right what she was looking at, could conjure that all up in my mind, and damn did you do such a fantastic job with this. That part sticks out, for obvious reasons, but the whole thing is heartbreaking and vivid and raw and horribly beautiful. I love Meredith's place in this, and the fact that Alex actually gets up to see what's going on, is actually concerned.
This is so my favorite thing right now and I have no idea how to put into words precisely why.

Thank you so much. It's kinda nice to know that I can leave you 'speechless' in a way!
Alex's concern is totally deliberate on my behalf (obviously, 'cause I wrote it!) because I've read a few post finale fics that post him as an ass and I really, REALLY hope that isn't what happens in season 7.
This is so my favorite thing right now. Oh, really? Thanks!
