The hilarious look on Liz's face in your header makes up for the sadness of this fic!

I don't think it says good things about me that I have ZERO problems with Liz and Jack cheating on other people with each other. Oh well.

P.S. I love your icon! Why is that so sexy?!

[bowserbabe]

It's not just me, sweet. I also have no problems with Jack and Liz cheating on other people with each other.

[michellek]

Ha, it is a delightful look on her face, is it not?

I have some problems. Which is to say that I often don't, but I would in this scenario.

P.S. I love your icon! Why is that so sexy?!

I don't know. It just *is.*

[bowserbabe]

Had a thought:

I'm okay with them cheating on other people. I'm not okay with them being okay with cheating on other people.

Important distinction?

[bowserbabe]

NO NO NO THEY STOPPED BEFORE THE GOOD STUFF. WHAT IS THE MEANING OF THIS.

[michellek]

IT MEANS LIZ LEMON DOESN'T WANT TO CHEAT ON MATT DAMON.

[bowserbabe]

EVEN I MIGHT BE WILLING TO CHEAT ON MATT DAMON WITH ALEC BALDWIN.

I don't know why I prefaced that with "even." Liz and I are probably about equal on a cheating-likeliability scale.

I must use the word "likeliability" more often. It could be my new favorite word.

Also: He's Alec Baldwin.

[michellek]

You make a compelling argument.

I've been lazy commenting and then I feel like I should start with the older ones and work forward, BUT! Here I am commenting. I like this! I really like the idea of Liz drawing a line. (Of course, I might also like it if she let him cross it, eventually, after a lot of redemption, but I can always just imagine that part.)

Hahaha, I also like your new header a lot.

[michellek]

Feel free to comment in any order you wish! And at whatever time you wish. When I first decided to go the almost!cheating way with this prompt, I wasn't sure how tempted I wanted Liz to be, or how far she'd go, but I did end up feeling like Jack has gotten away with enough. (Well, I suppose I often say that, but on some level I do want him to be kissing her for the right reasons, and to have him convince her of that. But that is, yeah, something we can imagine down the line.)

hee. Thank you.

How has it come to this?? Good. But...sigh...

[michellek]

Yeah. Sigh. (Thank you.)
