It amazes me how much you always completely nail the tone of a show or a ship, no matter what it is you're writing. You can really adapt your style.

I loved this. ♥

& psst, this was ttly my first 30 Rock fic :D

Fantastic! I'm so glad you returned (albeit for a brief genius fic? Or for more? Please say more!) I was so hoping that someone would write a fic about the moment when he asked her if she wanted to get drunk.

Thanks so much! I've missed writing Jack and Liz so much. And there will definitely be more where this one came from, you can count on that :)

The moment you mention from 2x10 is one of my favorites; to me, just that miniscule exchange was SUCH a goldmine, fic-wise. That episode in general was huge in terms of paralleling Jack and Liz, and how they really are kindred spirits. I love it.

Wow, thank you so much, Gemma! A comment like that means the world to me because it is something that I continually strive for.

And I'm so glad you liked this! And YAY your first 30 Rock fic! I'm not kidding when I say to check out michellek's. She's amazing at nailing every single character.

Of course I'd love it if you'd give more of mine a read too ;) A new one's going up in a minute, as a matter of fact, lol!

This was brilliant, I loved it! And OMG I'M SO HAPPY YOU WROTE MORE JACK/LIZ!!!! I love how Jack just nonchalantly puts the "We" in there and gets Liz all nervous. And of course the kissing against the wall is awesome. But in the all awesomeness, I think my absolute favorite bit is:

Maybe Don Henley has a point. Maybe he's a genius.

Except for 'Desperado.'

Hee. I love it!!!

Haha, thanks so much sweetie, I'm glad you liked this one! Total spur-of-the-moment lunch-hour fic, lol. I missed these two like crazy.

And LOL I'm glad you like those last couple lines, because I had a heck of a time finding an ending. That one came last-minute. :D

New one goes up in a few minutes!

*squeals* You've written more! I just checked here yesterday to see if there was something in a fandom I knew but had missed.

Thinking about something as stupid as that song is so, so, so Liz (and for that matter, so realistic). And I love that Jack and Liz depend on each other so much. When one of them is down and out, the other steps in, if not to cheer them up, than to be a kindred spirit. They've shown it many times in the show, and this was pitch perfect^^

Heee! I have, I have! I've written more, finally :D And as a matter of fact, I've written even more than this, which I'll be posting in just a minute! Hehehe.

And what you pointed out about Jack and Liz depending on each other is one of the main things I love about them. How he really can't make decisions without her, and without him she's just kind of a mess in general. I love touching on that in my fics.

Glad you enjoyed this one! Be on the lookout for the next one, going up within minutes! :D
