Wow, that's pretty intense. I love the way that Carson's reacted to the situation and the intensity with which you've written this.
Thanks!

Thank you very much!
Yeah, sometimes I'm really wondering how intense I'm writing. I'm always surprising myself.

very nice indeed.

Thanks!

Intense. I liked how Weir paralleled her guilt with a Wraith feeding. It was interesting that Beckett had chosen to accept her cutting considering his nature, but I can see it happening because Weir doesn't cut because of pathology -- it's self-punishment but not the same as being self-destructive.

*eep* Weir/Beckett is my secret ship, partly because out of all the characters on the show, I think these 2 would be less likely to have issues related to authority, chain of command, and public perception.

Huh... I haven't actually thought about Wraith feeding when I wrote the part with the hand. But you are right, that should be pretty obvious. :)

I thought Beckett would have to accept it (though he is not feeling comfortable with it, not at all) because it has pretty much become a part of Elizabeth.

Yes, I'm also of the opinion that Weir and Beckett could be a great couple. Sadly so few friends of mine agree! ^^

Yes, that too I agree.

Carson simply isn't the guy who tries to change things at any cost.
He'd rather change himself a bit to adjust to the situation.

John, for example, is someone who'd try really hard to stop Liz and possibly break her during the argument. Not that I'd consider her as weak or something... but that subject's touchy and I guess she'd be very hurt if she felt that someone she loves doesn't approve and accept her the way she is.

Eep, that was *very intense, and more than a little scary.

Thanks!

Whoa. And here I thought those were metaphorical scars in the beginning ... Interesting twist.
Also, Beckett/Weir? Is something I can see. Not working too close like John. Not as high maintenance as Rodney.
Carson - despite his regular freak-outs - appears much calmer and able to give a lot without asking much in return.
Lovely glimpse.

Thanks!
At first I didn't even bother with a pairing but finally a friend of mine had talked me into writing Weir/Beckett. Sadly most people I know think that Beckett's too boring for Weir. I think I simply might be the calmer part of their relationship.
