Really painful, but very awesome. Martha's depression and resignation ring so true.

What a fucking depressing perfect piece.

This was borderline bleak and really got under my skin!

I agree with two things already said above. I loved the post-it notes: I wish there had been a few more as they provided Martha and us with good insight.

And I think you did Mickey (and Martha) better than the 'real' writers will do them (although not Martha now)

Oh poor Martha!

*hugs*

I love the way Owen haunts her...

And Jack SO would have CCTV in the showers!

That's grim. Works, though.
