Oh Mer -That broke me! Derek spending nights in his trailer. Mer never telling Der about her miscarriage? Turning Mer all dark and twisty? You soo know how to get to me and make me cry?? I missed your writing though!! Even though you gave me a good cry!

Aw, I'm sorry. I think the finale has got me on a depressing kick -- what a surprise, lol.

Thanks hun!

As usual, you manage to get to the ticking heart of these characters so very easily. I'll pretty much read anything you write, even if it's about April (I want to slap and shake her, quite a lot actually...).

Loved that Meredith is soothing herself with drink. Rather like her father, I assume. A nice, if chilling, touch to her way of dealing with things.

I do not like April, at all, so I'm right there with you. But a friend of mine does so I wrote it for her, lol. But thank you -- you're so sweet to say that.

The alcohol thing is exactly like her father -- definitely chilling if you think it through like that.

I'm glad you liked this! Thanks again!

Wow, I think you just wrote Meredith to perfection. I think this is a realistic scenario because most characters took a big step forward in the finale (Lexies I love you, Cristinas operation, Owen's 'decision' etc.), so it's kinda Grey's logic to take a giant leap back. So more drama for everybody. haha

The April one: Well I couldn't care less about the character but I think wrote her really well. All her insecurities will come crashing down on her after this. And we'll see where the triangle April/Derek/Meredith in the new season.

Oh, of course, we're going to have to go backwards. It's more fun that way, lol.

Regarding April, I'm not a fan either so writing her was...interesting.

I'm glad you found both of these satisfying. Thanks for reading and reviewing!

I loved the Meredith/Fab 3 Fic. It seemed very realistic and true to the characters. Mer's seemed too whole and healed to me, lately, and become almost bland, so I like the regression idea better, LOL. I love the details here about the house and the drinking and how she likes where she is at the moment. Just really enjoyed this. Thanks.

I think the regression idea has potential as well, in some form.

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

I actually think the April one is very good. Like many others I'm not very fond of April, though I love Sarah Drew and I think she gave an outstanding performance in the finale. The way you write her seems very plausible and in character - I'm never sure if I can claim in character for someone who has been on screen for so little, but... It makes sense, and guilty eating her alive feels right ( ... )

Hey, I take the kind words where I can get them with April. I struggled. Severely.

As for the miscarriage thing -- I sort of...wrote April out of the situation here. And as far as I'm concerned, Owen appeared too busy, you know, being shot. But who knows, there could be looks. I'm down with acknowledging the unacknowledged.

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

I really liked them. It is always a treat to find that you've posted something new. :)

Take care.
