This is such a wonderful chapter as you flesh out Hardy's side of the story and throw light light on the true nature of the investigation.

For me, the standout line was:
He went silent, closing his eyes and expression changing. He felt like his shame was there for all to see. “I am not at liberty to divulge the specific details of that case
It underlines what an officer and a gentleman he is; a true professional carrying out his line of duty as he remains true to his own personal code of conduct. I read it and thought, "Ah, there he is!" with satisfaction.

I shall now happily sit back and wait for the defence team's case to dissolve now as you progress in this tale. Thank you!! :D

"light light"? :)

It was a good line. Mind, there was at least one line from last chapter I was expecting you to comment on. Especially in light of the things we tend to share fangirl giggles over. ;)

I can't promise another chapter until tomorrow. I have a submission for my writing group I need to finish today, and the second of my morning classes resumes tomorrow morning. Hence I'll need to go to bed early tonight.

As always, I'm thrilled that you reviewed!

Oops! That's over-enthusiasm for you. :)

Let's just say that my brain was not fully functioning during that last chapter comment - I was heavily sleep deprived because nothing else would have stopped me from noting Hardy's reaction to being called dishy. As if I'd supply a paper bag for him. He'd escape from that when/if I tied him up... *coughs* Sorry, got lost in a daydream then. ;)

Don't worry. Whenever you can post it, love. Good luck with your writing project and your morning classes!! *hugs*

Aww, thank you! I'm relieved that I got here early this time. :D

Forgiven. It's your fic-present, after all. :D

I'm very tired, too. If I didn't have a work shift tonight I'd be napping a ton today. *snickerfit* Knew you'd enjoy that line. 'Cause he wouldn't think he is. *evil grin*

Thanks. Sleep is my biggest concern. Along with getting this silly chapter for my group into something like okay shape.
