A Drabble for Lea!

It's really a hundred words! I can't believe it.

Fandom: The Black Donnellys
Rating: PG
Characters: Tommy/Jenny

He’s drawn thousands of pictures of her. Using the edge of his pencil lead, he’s tried to recreate what he sees.

But he never can. So there’s a pile of pictures in the back of his closet that he’s never shown to anyone. Never used them for

Wow, a fic, a Donnelly fic, for me? *squishes you* I think I'm in love with you :)

What can I say other than it's brilliant what you can do with only 100 words? I mean, just look at those lines: He drew her because he couldn’t touch her. Once, when he lay in the dark with her, he thought, Maybe now I can draw her. The real her. And my absolute fave one: But it faded into the morning light. You can't help but go all *sigh* when you see them together, and just multiply that feeling and add a lot of sadness and feeling of something lacking for when they're not. I love how that act of drawing her makes you think of hours of work, patience, determination, stillness in a way, and at the same time it's exactly teh opposite, just an outlet for all those feelings or unsettlement and desperation and just pure frustration inside of him. At least that's my impression of it. And the end? She's his but not exactly, and he's back to the beginning. Gah! There's so much ache, so much grief. Matches perfectly with how I felt when watching that scene, how I imagined he felt at that moment. They've stolen my heart already, and you managed to capture everything I love about them. I adore it, thank you so much! *hugs*

I know, poor Tommy. Everything for her comes out in his art, that was just all I could see and think of and tried to focus the few words on. They are just going to break my heart, over and over again, I have a feeling.

I'm glad you liked it. You deserve so much for your bad week, and for always being so supportive of my writing. I mean, really I ought to limit you on your reviews...see if you can only write 100 words ;-) ha!

I want to watch 1.03 again. Desperately! A good portion of angst and sadness is good from time to time *sigh* They are just going to break my heart, over and over again, I have a feeling. They already are doing that to me, but that's what I love so much about the show. The episode ends and you're feeling happy (cause it was yet another amazing one) and sad (cause that's how it usually leaves you) at the same time.

see if you can only write 100 words ;-) ha!
Is that a challenge? Do I get to choose for which fic? *g* Cause Candy my dear, you can't limit me to 100 words only when you promised a fic with Linc, Sara and Veronica (and Linc/Sara) all together in the same fic! I promise to try to write only 100 words the next time you write a drabble ;)
