Aw, thanks!

I remember hearing that word so long ago and always knew I'd do something with it. It's kind of a pretty word.

I didn't want to do something with just one character, and you know it's Claire so I thought you might like it.

That was perfect. Beautifully written. (And I loved that it was centered on Claire. ^_^)

I loved it!

[slybrunette]

Wow, thank you! I'm glad you enjoyed it!

Indeciviness must pay off. I really didn't know who I wanted to be Sam's father and i really hate taking sides, so I'm glad that worked in my favor.

Claire being at the center of it all comes from me not being able to write anything ensemble without her playing a major part in it. I have no idea why, as I'm not a fan of hers, but it comes naturally to me to write from her perspective.

Thanks for reading! I'm glad you enjoyed it.

Really well written. This was a very interesting read, and I'm glad to see that you can do more with Claire than the writers have since S1. :D I loved this piece!

[slybrunette]

Claire could be interesting. The writers just refuse to make her that way. It's nice to hear I've beat that.

Glad you liked it, thanks for reading!

I love how they all ended up drifting back to Claire in the end despite how screwed up they all got. Jack had hope and that was good. Thank God the beard is gone. I hate that thing.

"She told herself that was all it was, and it had nothing to do with the fear of getting so close to someone only to have it all get destroyed by fate or whatever it was she had thought she’d believed in (he had too, she remembers, and she thinks of dirty bandages and black marker, and it’s enough to make her nauseous)."

That's my favorite part.

Claire. My little pillar of whatever. I despise her and yet here she is again. I had to write Claire and Jack in there somewhere. Different interpretation of Claire and razors than last time though, dontcha think.

I wanted her to have a memory that wasn't about peanut butter so that I wasn't copying. Hence that.

Thanks for reading!
