A good episode tag.

It works well.

[nicis_anatomy]

Thank you ;) Also for extending the drabble to 500 this week *g* I still had to delete about 300 words in the end, but I made it ;)

[nakeisha]

You're welcome.

And you're welcome re: the word count. The story I mentioned on Twitter yesterday that ended up at almost 2,000 words started out to be for this week's challenge *g* I'm good at deleting, but not 1,500 words. Am currently working on another one and need to delete 86 words *g*

[nicis_anatomy]

I think I could have worked this into a longer story too. But I wanted to use it for the drabble challenge ;)
Deleting 1,500 words? There is no way this would have worked (or be worth it in the end). It's good that you didn't try to do it. But 86 should be easy *g*

Nice job! Loved the link to the ep with the actual dialogue used in it.

[nicis_anatomy]

Thank you! I'm glad you liked it.

I did -- and it will hold me over until tonight. We've been junking out on the DVDs again (we're up to Season 4), but I missed the last new ep because we'd just moved and the DirecTV guy wasn't scheduled until that Friday -- and I can't seem to get over-the-air signals here.

Lovely fic ♥ the quotes from the episode worked very well, it was almost like reading Jenny's thoughts during the scenes, loved it!

[nicis_anatomy]

Thank you! This was actually a part of the diary - only with a different ending and with real dialogues, but still Jen's thoughts at the end of "Frame up". I'm glad it worked also that way ;)

Very nice piece, liked Jenny's thoughts on Abby.

[nicis_anatomy]

Thank you ;)

Wonderful! This is a fantastic episode tag, and very in-character for Jenny and Abby.

Thank you! I'm glad you like it. The first/real version (the one in the diary) had also a hug for Jen in it, but that was more a reward for me because I managed to hit the 50k with this chapter last month ;)
