Summary: Five perspectives on

Comments

[michellek]

I loved this. The different perspectives were nice, and the Pete and Danny ones were perspectives on Jack and Liz that I've wanted to see more in fic. And I do enjoy reading about Liz pining after Jack for a change, and, I agree, it is pretty appropriate for this season.

Thank you! I've been wanting to do a Pete-perspective for a long time. The Danny portion actually also started out (like the Pete) as its own story; hopefully it worked all clumped together, because I was way too lazy to keep developing them, hahah.

HIATUS ENDS IN THREE DAYS

[michellek]

I AM VERY EXCITED ABOUT THAT FACT.

Oh, and I meant to mention this part:

She hates the idea of Jack spending his life with some woman who doesn't even know him that well -- who can't possibly know him well. Because Jack doesn't reveal himself to that many people, and even his girlfriends don't get very far. She doesn't think he lets them.

And how it is completely true, and also part of what bums me out about the idea of Jack and Liz not ending up together.

I agree; this was one of my favorite lines in the story. I know this feeling all too well.

ME TOO, although I'm away from my tv so I might have to wait to download or watch it on Hulu the next day, arg.

Thank you, yeah. Jack is never as cute with his girlfriends as he is with Lemon, which doesn't just make them less *watchable*, but actually less appealing as matches for him. IN MY OPINION. Maybe Robert mmnm Carlock disagrees. (I don't even care, Carlock, I'm going to continue to place the blame for this squarely on YOU.)

[michellek]

ugh, Carlock with his face. I have never enjoyed Jack/One of his Girlfriends as much as Jack/Liz, I will admit. And I only really disliked Elisa. It's lame/sad, but I think that even if Jack ends up with a super awesome lady played by a super awesome actress, I will be bummed out that he isn't going to end up with Liz.
