I love this! Your Sawyer voice is spot-on, and I have such a soft spot for his interactions with Jack, especially now that their dynamic has changed, and you captured that wonderfully. The first paragraph in particular is perfect. Really great work!

[slybrunette]

I used to have such a love for these two, but lately I've had a bit of trouble understanding the two of them with canon and all. This was a sort of attempt to make sense of it all, so I'm glad you enjoyed it :)

Thanks for reading and reviewing!

This was great! I enjoy the role reversal on the show, but you've told it from a different angle and I enjoyed that very much too. I love the idea of Sawyer missing Jack's companionship :-)

[slybrunette]

I have a lot of trouble with the role reversal actually, which may be why I came at it from a different angle -- my way of rationalizing it.

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

To be completely honest I can't read it either. Up until two days ago, I also couldn't bring myself to write it.

Lost is messed up. The characters, the show, this we know, and that's really why I stopped writing in the first place -- kind of ironic that now I've gone back and started again, albeit briefly, because of the same reason.

Also, I think you made me tear up a little at that last -- sometimes I really do miss this fandom, and wish I could come back to it. And then writing this, I remember why I just can't. I don't feel like I know these people like I used to.

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

Aw, boys. Why can't they be pals? I loved this. The image of Sawyer watching Jack through the school windows especially for some reason. Very awesome and you should totally write this fandom more and I know, I know. Me too.

And what Lenina says, I just miss it.

[slybrunette]

I want their friendship back. More than I want the slash aspect, I want the companionship.

I wish I could write it more, you know, I really do, but I feel like every time I do it's half-assed. Maybe with time -- it's all a matter of getting back into the groove, right?

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

Aw. I love this. I love them. Thank you for writing this!

[slybrunette]

Hee, thank you for reading it! I'm glad you liked it!
