*wimpers* marrrssshhhaaaallllll :(

Such tasty tasty angst. In my head right now I'm yelling at Marshall to just leave Abby, screw being married to that crazed, red-headed harpy! You and mary are perfect for each other. But we wouldn't love Marshall as hard as we do if he wasn't the kind of man to try everything to make it work would we? *wibble*

I LOVE your picture! It just fit so perfectly with this chapter. I really had qualms about this one- we all wrote so many fix-it pieces and this one is SO angsty - but that's what you wanted! So this one was all for you. And I'll tell you a little secret - even though it was hard to write, I really like how it turned out.
I'm afraid his crazy wife is going to get a bit crazier before all is said and done. But Mary is coming home soon. . . .
