“Okay, first of all,” Jeff began, “Pierce doesn’t write music. He steals well known songs, and tacks on the world’s worst lyrics.” He knew she was about to come to their friend’s defense, so continued on, “And all those other things…They’re things we’ve all had to practice at to get better. Well,” he conceded, “Not Abed. I’m pretty sure he’s never actually had a dance lesson, but people really shouldn’t compare themselves to Abed. It just gets weird.”

Annie chuckled slightly, but didn’t seem to perk up much.

Jeff continued, “You, Annie, you have this amazing talent that you don’t even have to work at… You make people want to be better.” She fixed him then with the beginnings of a genuine smile. “And when they want to be better, suddenly, they are.”

Honestly, Annie's talent is the best because it has long-standing results and because it's effortless on her part and it's just so her. It's not so much a talent as a gift, and I love that you have Jeff recognising it her and complimenting her about it... so adorable! :)

I adore your drabbles. :)
