ok, the first one? wow... completely heartberaking, but still, wow... (once you started writing about R/R you couldn't stop lol...

second one... oh poor richard *send some hugs to him*

[nicis_anatomy]

Thank you ;) Yeah, it looks like they keep haunting me. But I really like the idea of them getting in touch. So ...

I'm glad you liked it ;)

[lormats]

I like the idea very much... and I feel sorry for Richard a little bit, to live so many years without the love of his life... IDK poor richard...

EEEEeeee, girl ILU! <33

These are both so heartbreaking! I like how the first one ends on a hopeful note, I can really see Richard wanting to make amends with Rachel (in my head, Richard and Juliet were friends, she knew an awful lot about him when they were travelling through time!), so this makes sense. Now I wonder how Sawyer will react when Richard shows up...

The last one, OH MY HEART. :(( The main reason I ship him with Miles is because I want Richard to be happy off the island, because I think being alone would be like the worst thing for him. I like this idea that maybe he ages super-fast now, but in my own personal fanon he stays immortal. I loved both of these, I just want to give Richard so many hugs. :((

The little dedication made me so happy, dear! Yes I am a bad influence and make you write more Richard! :DD Now I want to write you a little something in return! Hit me with a pairing or idea! :D

;)
Thank you. Well, it's all your fault that I got interested in Richard (and in this pairing). I agree that Juliet and Richard seemed to be (good) friends (or at least in touch). It's a big shame that we never saw Ben's reaction to her death, but now it also bothers me that we never saw Richard's. Hm ... I see some plotbunnies on the way *g*

I hope he was happy and not alone in his life after the island. But we don't know this either. *sighs* so many open questions ...

You want to write something for me? Well, I don't know. Well, I like gen stories and Jack/Kate, James/Juliet, Charlie/Claire, Desmond/Penny ... or maybe you want to write some Richard/Rachel? We should promote this pairing!

I was happy though that we saw the main characters reacting to Juliet's death, because usually the plot moves on and everyone seems to forget (Charlie never really was mourned, you know?). So seeing James grieving was great (but heartbreaking), and then when Jack told Hurley that her death was bothering him and made him try to be better, I just lost it and sobbed. :((

Hmmm, I will think of something! I have an oldddd Jack/Kate (+Aaron) story that I wrote before season 6 aired, and I never posted it! I just remembered! It was supposed to be part 1 of a 4-part series about the 4 ships, but I only ever finished Jack/Kate. I have to post it now!

Now you have me wanting to write some Richard and Juliet friendship fic. Despite being a crazy shipper, I love friendship fics, lol. I actually managed to write a Richard and Miles one that didn't turn into slash (go me!). :P

LONG COMMENT IS TOO LONG. ;)

[nicis_anatomy]

That's true. At least we saw some people mourning Juliet. *is still sad when she thinks about these scenes*
There was this short scene with Charlie, when Hurley told Claire he was dead. That was touching, but I think it wasn't enough to show how much they cared about him :(

Jack/Kate (Aaron) sounds great. You should post this one and write the rest *g*
And I love friendship, too. I'd love to read some Richard&Juliet friendship. And Richard&Miles, too ;)

Comments are never too long!
