Lynn smiles a little and relaxes into the lounger. She still loves her husband, despite his indiscretions, and she feels like a fool. She loves her son because he’s the one thing that is truly hers.

But most of all she loves the vodka and the pills she chases it with, because they bring the numbness and she needs to numbness so she doesn't have to look at what she's become.

Sniff. Poor Lynn. That was really well written and an interesting perspective. Good Job.

thanks!

I really like Lynn's voice in this. Great idea for a story, really original rather than the old done-to-death storylines.

Ooh, little nitpick I just spotted:

But most of all she loves the vodka and the pills she chases it with, because they bring the numbness and she needs to numbness

Anyway, I digress. I love your stories, I've recently discovered this community and eagerly await new updates! Keep up the fabulousness. I love the uniqueness of this piece.

Thanks, and I fixed that sentence.

I like the tragedy of Lynn Echolls - she's interesting.

Wow. This is absolutely Lynn. The tiny details about her day, including the despairing monotony of the alcohol and the pills, really make her come alive. And Aaron and Logan are perfectly characterized, too, in her thoughts about them.

Considering that you wrote just about the BEST Aaron piece ever, thanks for the kind words.

I love this. I love everything you write. I've been craving new fic, and this was just excellent.

new fic, almost better than chocolate. :) I honestly think I could have done better, but it's a start. Now I can torture Lynn as well as V and L.

This was gorgeous. You've really captured Lynn - especially her dynamic with Logan (poor Logan). Wonderfully melancholy.

sophia_bee June 12 2005, 05:49:04 UTC

thank you, especially since your fantastic fic partially inspired me to explore Lynn a little more. ::hugs::

Wow. I inspired YOU? Feels all special now.
