Bones question

[only_more_love]

I'm sure there's been a avalanche of fic and meta re: The Parts in the Sum of the Whole; I haven't read any of it yet.  March + has been very busy here, and I've been mostly absent from all things fannish for at least a few weeks. So what I'm about to ask may have already been discussed to death.  My apologies, if that's the case.

Anyway...

Is it just me, or did Booth capitulate surprisingly quickly/easily when Brennan rejected his plea to give them a chance?  If you've got any thoughts on this and feel like sharing, I'd love to listen.

For now, good night. *passes out*
