You know what's sad? I couldn't think of anything purple for like 30 minutes. Plums and amethysts slipped my mind. And then I felt stupid when I figured it out.

You are. I'm just all at once. Don't worry, you'll keep your title. I'm feeling...drained of writing ability.

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

Thanks! I have an issue writing short stuff -- I never think it's good enough -- but this is just something you can't make long, you know?

And don't be envious. You are just as good as I am, if not more so.

I'm glad you liked this!

oooooh, interesting - I have to admit I thought you were going S3 with that one, but I have to admit I like this idea better.

[slybrunette]

For some reason I'm stuck in canon as of late, so everything seems to be set in S4. That'll change soon I'm sure.

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

What a wonderful fic- it paints a nice picture and shows a lot of who Juliet is in just a few lines. I love your descriptions =]

[slybrunette]

Thank you! I was trying to make it short but purposeful so I'm glad I succeded.

Thanks for reading!

Your fics never cease to amaze me! The purple imigary you used is brilliant, as is the whole fic in general.

“Do you still think you made the right choice?” She yells to everyone and no one, straining to be heard over the rain. Locke just looks up at the sky like he wants to ask why things aren’t going his way. Only Sawyer looks down, regret in his eyes.

This one little part leaves so many images in my head about the future of those left behind. Sawyer is so going to regret staying behind, I know it. And poor Juliet has no say in the matter at all.

The last two words, "everyone waits" are killer.

Great stuff. :)

I think Sawyer will definitely have second thoughts in the end. And yeah, Juliet really isn't going to wind up with much of a say unfortunately.

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