I'm glad you do. Thank you ;) And can I say that I love your lj name?

Yay, you're back! I'm so glad! (I don't know much about X-Files so I don't read those drabbles in case I ever want to watch it from the beginning, so I'm glad to be able to comment now!)

I loved this one a lot, hun. I thought it was Jack until the last line, and then I read it again and loved it even more. The last line is a killer.

I love that Juliet's line about love is in there, and that it seems like it was a somewhat "clean" divorce (if that's the word you'd use), but even that is hard on the child in the situation. Poor David. :( This really sheds some light on his strained relationship with Jack.

I love the sideways Shephards and how you write them. :)

Yes, I am ;) This prompt was made for me and my little universe. There was no way I could've ignored this ;)
I'm sorry that I'm spamming you with XF, but it seems my muse really wants me to write for this fandom *sighs* But I've already started the next bingo chapter. That's something ;)

I'm glad you liked it and that my twist in the end worked. I wasn't so sure about it, but I wanted people to think it was Jack and not David.
And you know that I believe in a 'clean divorce'. I just can't give them a nasty WW3 scenario. But even without it, it must've been hard for David.

Thank you!

I thought about doing sideways Jack/Juliet for this prompt too, but I just couldn't focus on it so it's good that you wrote it! :D Too bad this can't fit into your bingo. :\

No need to apologize for spamming with XF! I do intend to watch it all someday, so I don't want to be spoiled (I was quite young when the show was at its peak, so I probably wouldn't have gotten it at the time). Besides, I post slash all the time and spam YOU, so we're even, :P

Yes I like this idea of a clean divorce, because they seemed like such good friends when we saw them and I loved that! David makes his peace with Jack though.

Thank you ;) Although, this one in particular was borrowed from "The Incident"/Juliet/Juliet's parents and it was meant to be for James/Juliet.
For me, it also worked for the Jack/Juliet in season 6, because they obviously still liked each other after the divorce ...

Wonderful drabble! At first I thought this was from Jack's pov, but I love that it's from David's instead.

Thank you very much ;) I'm glad you liked it and that my twist worked. I wanted people to think it was Jack ;) Truth is, I started writing it as if it was Jack, but halfway through I changed my mind and made it David's POV *g*
