This is your first shot at MerDer?! I never would have guessed. Beautifully written. I loved it! :)

Thank you, I'm so glad. I was a tad bit worried about posting this, but It's good to hear I got the characters somewhat right!

Please keep this going!!!!

This was meant to be just a one shot, but maybe I will be inspired to write more about this couple. I'm glad you enjoyed it!

YAY! I'm so glad you like it! I was a bit nervous, but it's good to see I didn't completely miss the boat on characterizations.

very Mark and I think a good insight into Derek's psychology.

I wish Mark would just suck it up and talk to him, he has to know that it wasn't about Lexie. His pride is just hurt, I think.

I'm keeping your other prompt in mind while I go to Africa. I think I may have a lot of time to write over there when I can't sleep!

Wow. It's hard to believe this is your first time writing them because you pretty much write them spot on, especially Derek.

It's a nice change to see Meredith holding Derek up, and I especially like how you portray her here. :) good work

It really, really is and I'm actually really proud of her. Usually she would take this and run, but she's sticking with him and I'm a little elated. I think Meredith may be growing on me.

Thanks for reading!

Ah, this is beautiful. I love that Mer is now having to save him, bring him back from his pain.

And she won't leave just because she has to breathe for him...

And she won't leave just because she has to breathe for him...

That is really poetic and so, so true. Thank you for reading. I'm glad that you enjoyed this.
