Sam/Jack/Daniel - melancholy (R) niamaea November 5 2007, 21:18:57 UTC

They watch the game in silence, straight through. Usually commercial breaks are reserved for the inevitable remote control custody battles-cum-wrestling matches; sometimes the game stays on, sometimes it doesn’t. Tonight it stays on with no discussion, but Sam, even though hockey's grown on her over the years, barely watches it ( ... )

oh. wow.
OUCH
I love how present Daniel is in his absence - how much of a focal point he was and still is and how they keep reaching for something that isn't there.

Y'know, I'm always a little nervous about writing negative space, but I love reading it, and thought I'd give it a go. So, thanks!

This feels like "the middle" to me...I have a feeling they'll keep reaching for the wrong thing for a while, still.

Oh, damn! That's painful. (so good)

Re: Sam/Jack/Daniel - melancholy (R) niamaea November 6 2007, 23:23:21 UTC

Thanks!

This, seriously, just broke my heart.

But, really, isn't this how it *would* be?

Awesome job.

Re: Sam/Jack/Daniel - melancholy (R) niamaea November 6 2007, 23:24:55 UTC

Aw, I'm sorry to your heart. But, thank you -- I'm not entirely sure where this one came from, but I'm glad you liked it. :)

That hurt.

Beautifully done.

Re: Sam/Jack/Daniel - melancholy (R) niamaea November 6 2007, 23:25:18 UTC

Thank you.

*sobs* Daniel!!

That was definitely melancholy all right. Lovely work.

Re: Sam/Jack/Daniel - melancholy (R) niamaea November 6 2007, 23:26:20 UTC

Thank you! This kind of pestered me until I wrote it, very glad to hear it worked for you. :)

Re: Sam/Jack/Daniel - melancholy (R) littleheaven70 November 6 2007, 08:51:18 UTC

*sobs* Sometimes the void is just too big to fill. Beautiful.

Re: Sam/Jack/Daniel - melancholy (R) niamaea November 6 2007, 23:26:38 UTC

Thank you!

Re: Sam/Jack/Daniel - melancholy (R) ticklie November 6 2007, 11:45:26 UTC

Ouch. That last paragraph broke my heart. The uncomfortable moments between Sam and Jack underline so well how important Daniel is to them.

Re: Sam/Jack/Daniel - melancholy (R) niamaea November 6 2007, 23:31:10 UTC

I unfortunately think that Sam and Jack are going to be exceptionally bad at filling the empty spaces. :(

Thanks for reading!
