Wow. That was fantastic. I love the way Alex is portrayed, old for her age and yet (underneath it all) still just a teenager. I really like the way you found that balance. I also think it's cool how it made sense to me on both sides (as I thought I might have trouble buying it, at least on the part of Jack).

Also, this made me smile:

Just one more thing to beat himself up about later.

Loved that line. So Jack.

Great title, too. :)

Alex is...she's sixteen but she's not because of the island, the life she must've had to lead, and I love that about her.

Yeah, I had a hard time figuring out where Jack's head was. But he isn't exactly stable, even at this point in the game anymore. Not if this whole rescue thing screws up as badly as I think it will.

Title is from "How It Ends" because it's stuck in my head, lol.

I'm glad you liked this! Thanks for reading hun!

I never even thought of Jack/Alex, but I really liked this.

Thanks! uhzoomzip has done Jack/Alex quite a few times and that's what really got me thinking about this pairing.

I'm glad you liked this!

Oh. Otherville... Ben.

My mind is kinda stuck on that now. I think this is exactly how Alex would act. I kinda have a hard time wrapping my mind around Jack in this situation, this is my shameful, secret guilty pleasure (thanks for writing it, btw ;) ) but it's always totally unsided dirty thoughts in my version. But the Otherville part gave it a new dimenssion.

I didn't not know you had a thing for this. I should know these things.

Otherville is fun ain't it ;)

I'm glad you liked this! Thanks for reading!

I meant one-sided. .*facepalm* Need. Sleep.

slybrunette January 26 2008, 19:18:15 UTC

I knew what you meant.

Nighty night.

You have such a great grasp of Alex here. And Jack, a wonderful way to show his brokenness, hints of the flashforward!Jack to come.

slybrunette January 26 2008, 19:19:32 UTC

Jack is so messed up in that flashforward -- and that did not crop up overnight. Who knows what went wrong.

As for Alex, thank you! I really like writing her.

I'm glad you liked this! Thanks for reading and reviewing!
