You really know the days I need fic to comfort me, seriously.
I'll admit that I'm not watching the show and you can guess why (I'm a giant baby and can't take it, I cried when I passed by an episode and they showed Phil) but I still adore the idea that they are in the same location for long periods of time. I also happen to love hurt/comfort (this bingo is like a batch of awesome) and this is exactly why. Lovely and tender with humor and the little moment of tracing the bruise? Oh lord. ♥
You are doing the right thing, not watching. I've been avoiding it mostly too, but tonight I got sucked in and they are killing me with this shit. It's awful.
I'm glad you found this fic comforting. I do love these two dearly, and I wish for them the kind of happiness and comfort I fabricate in my little fictional universe, even if they don't find it with each other. Or something. I don't know what the hell I'm saying, it's past my bedtime and Jake Harris has broken my heart.
It's not even past my bedtime and I don't know what I'm saying most of the time, so you're ahead of me.
Poor Jake. His life is kind of falling in around his ears and the entire thing is being taped for history's sake. I hope they get the happiness, preferably the way you write it, but if not I'd be okay if it was just in general. It's just they are so adorable in the canon I mentally steal from you and let run amock in my head!
I do really feel for Jake Harris. He is going to be a mess for a long, long time, I think. He just never grew up, and now he's lost the one person he could really count on to kick his ass. Maybe his siblings will step in. I hope so.
Funnily enough, I totally did expect it. It doesn't surprise me about him one little bit, and I feel sorry for him even as I want to shake him, because that's going to fuck him up for the rest of his life.
Listening to the other Jake going on about how the guys on the CM loved him, though...that was lovely! It broke me all over again, but it was lovely.
At least one crew member on the CM loves him! It's life, imitating art!
Stupid, stupid, stupid. I feel for his father...even tho he's beyond pain now. But Jake is going to believe (at least in a little portion of his heart) that he's the reason his dad died. It's going to destroy him...what's left of him.
For one awful moment I thought this was the moment Phil had his fatal attack. I'm relieved that it wasn't so. I sincerely hope they do not show that on TV...but I will be watching so I'll know one way or the other. I'm sort of disgusted with myself.
I don't watch the show, I only read your fic, so I'm not feeling the pain everyone else is. I'm just really enjoying the story of these guys as you tell it.
You are going about it the right way! The show is frustrating at the best of times. I thank you for reading my fic, though. That takes a leap of faith, and it's appreciated. :)
I gotta say, I'm starting to get a little unnerved by Capt. Phil's constant 'not gonna be here for much longer' quotes. They're breaking my heart. Showing his sons where to fish, talking about how he gets to hang with his sons on the boat... Gah.

Was ignoring my phone, which your twitters come in on, since I was lost in fanfic reading, sorry wasn't around to help entertain during the blackout.

Neither Jake is having much success this season. At least in your charming fic one of them has the comfort needed to get through the night. Very nice.
