shirebound, this is your birthday fic, at last! I couldn't wait to get over the damn flu so I could finally get this up! Deep Impact is in my top three most re-watched movies of all time. And for well over a decade now, my mind has been full of plot bunny ideas for that movie. IDK why I never wrote them, but I when I mentioned a few of them to you, you

Beth's daughter, wow. I never thought about her life after the movie ends. This is WONDERFUL. I love every bit of this, from beginning to end, especially the little details like 'pretzel snack'. What a lovely, loving, gentle, sweet fic. Thank you so much, my friend. ♥ ♥

I'm so glad you liked it! Thank you for the encouragement to write my first Deep Impact fic! That moment where Jenny gives up her seat on the chopper to Beth and her daughter is one of my favorite moments in the film and I just couldn't get the thought out of my head about how Beth deals with that knowledge in the future. Your comment made me smile and you are very welcome, darling!

Oh, my fucking GOD, woman! I'm crying my goddamned eyes out over here, and I don't even LIKE Deep Impact. Damn it!

Ahahaha! I made you cry! Over Deep Impact! And a character played by Tea Leoni! I win!

Seriously, babe, thank you! Making someone cry is always the best comment for a writer, as you know.

I certainly do! :)
