What I think/want to happen to Mark and Lexie

I just really love how they've handled both characters. Mark started out as a dog (a completely gorgeous and charming dog, but still a dog) and Lexie was an immature spaz, and they've brought them together in a realistic way, and kept the characters being "themselves" but with some of their edges sanded off. Both of them could have been those characters that you love to hate, and instead I'm finding myself loving them.

I don't think that Lexie would have an abortion. Mark would be crushed. For once, I want a woman to want him. But yeah, I see option 1 happening, and I sooo do not want that.

Do you think they'll end up together? Or are they done?

Oh, don't get me wrong, I don't think for an instant that Lexie would get an abortion without serious thought first. I'm sure she WOULD want the baby, but after what we've seen of her with her plans and whatnot...a child might not be a part of them now. She was reluctant to even move in, and a child is a much more serious obligation than living together.

The intensity would come from her being torn between wanting Mark and his baby, but also wanting the future she invisioned for herself. There's only so much a person can give/compromise. That's why I think Lexie's a strong character...I think she knows how much to give.

As for whether or not I think they'll end up together, I can't say. I can see Shonda conditioning them for another longterm MerDer case, but I can see her breaking them up as well. And, unless Mark goes for one of the Mercy West residents, that entails ANOTHER new regular, at least one...the show would suffer for that.
