I really enjoyed the Nicco insight, here. Especially how Brooke thinks, "Sometimes I wonder how this guy can go through life so detached", and then hears the story about the designer. That's your how and why, Brooke.

I'm glad Brooke has Nicco, and Nicco has Brooke, even if this story's going to have a teary ending.

That last line was dirty pool, though. *sniffle*

That's your how and why, Brooke.

Love that you connected the two--something I hadn't really done before but it makes *so* much sense (and is probably one reason why tjonesy wrote that scene in).

I'm glad Brooke has Nicco, and Nicco has Brooke, even if this story's going to have a teary ending.

Already speculating on the ending, now, are we?

And there's plenty of dirty pool going on in this story. Get used to it. ;)

Not speculating as much as keeping in mind your remarks about the show following canon. Put into that perspective, everything has a teary ending. :P

Nicco's a good guy at heart and he really cares for Brooke. I'm so happy that you get that they have each other to lean on.

We like dirty pool. *hands you a kleenex*

We like dirty pool.

And that's why I like you. But I reserve the right to whine about it from time to time, even though I wouldn't have it any other way.
