This depressed me hard. Jack saying he was fulfilled with Avery whilst living a whack life without her or their child's presence. Liz pretending like she's gonna be fulfilled just cos no one else wants her or even likes her enough to stick around. Nice job. ON MAKING ME SAD. :(

[michellek]

Since sadness was what I was going for, I will be happy about making you sad. It's weird, but when I decided to write this prompt as 'they go to dinner together' I wanted it to be more lighthearted and instead went in the SADNESS MELANCHOLY LONELINESS direction. I guess I'm in that sort of mood.

I've had fics run away with my mood too. Or the other way round really. Thanks for sharing your misery around.

[michellek]

I don't know if I should say 'you're welcome' or not.

[mindymakru]

Well, I've shared mine around. I think it's part of the deal here, right? So go ahead, say it.

[michellek]

Yeah, I think so, too. You're welcome!
