loooooove it. i love how you portrayed Sawyer's emotions. <33

here's to hoping that is what exactly happens next eppie. this damn love rectangle needs to find some closure/conclusion already.

[hitlikehammers]

Thank you! I always feel very skeptical of my ability to write Sawyer, so I am particularly thrilled that you enjoyed how he was portrayed here.

And damn straight - if I have endure this freaking "love"-polygon much longer, I am going to sic the freaking smoke monster on its ass.

You're right this time. There was no "damn Kate" on my part, but "IN YOUR FACE KATE!" Hehe.

I love this line:
“Game don’t change, sweetheart,” he drawls, as if the accent was as affected as the persona, drawn out in full just for this occasion, this one-night-only return of his infamous former self; “just the players.”

This is the Sawyer I want to see when he goes face-to-face with Kate; in love with Juliet and telling Kate off. I would expect Kate to realize that after three years, people change. Maybe she hasn't but Sawyer did. He grew up.

And this is the part when I say...more please? ;D

[hitlikehammers]

Thank you ever so much - indeed, "in your face, Kate!" is a sentiment I rather enjoy :) And I was a bit iffy on that line in particular - didn't know if it was too much or not - so that you liked it makes me quite happy. Here's hoping we see ballsy!Sawyer putting Kate in her place on screen in the near future.

And more? Well, because you said please ;) I'm hoping for the last bit of this arc-thingy to be done before the episode tomorrow, if I can.

[whimsey]

That line is perfect because Sawyer is saying the situation may not necessary change, but people do. It's part of life.

Yay!

Oh how I wish this would happen on the show. That would be glorious. Kate needs to be put in her place and Sawyer's just the one to do it. :]

[hitlikehammers]

Thanks! And definitely... Kate needs shut down. Hard.

And why does that make me want to write something where she walks in on some hot Sawyer/Juliet action?

[well_just_lie]

i read this and i thought the conversation was between sawyer and juliet. i was sad, then i realized it was kate.

love the ambiguity in the beginning. LOVE SULIET!

[hitlikehammers]

Thank you! And I am so glad the ambiguity worked... I was afraid it would be too obvious and come off as being rather redundant. So, yay for that as well :)

This is amazing.

[hitlikehammers]

Thank you :) I'm thrilled that you think so.
