Oz/Law & Order: SVU crossover

yay! Day off and got to read fic! Why can't every day be like this.
So you are sending the boys off to Vermont for some R&R.

[drsquidlove]

Every day should be just like that.

Mayyyyybe they'll go to Vermont... If they do, I'm sure it will be very restful and recovery-ish.

Thank you helvetica!

Aww Ell let Toby be there for him. That's so sweet. Poor Liv had better wake up. Oh I hope the boys go to Vermont.
Great chapter.

[drsquidlove]

A little Toby was just what Elliot needed.

But Vermont is so cold...

Thanks maze!

Oh, my heart. So sad how Toby felt like a dirty secret and heartwarming when he realized how wrong he was. I just want to shake the stubborn bastard by the shoulders and scream, "tell him you love him!" But as was mentioned earlier, I'm glad to see caution. Even if it's frustrating. The boys are being.. Responsible and loving. They're showing signs that it's almost safe to *gulp* part with them. I don't want this story to ever end. -Edub

Ah, see? You get it! All these people wanting me to fix their misery are just bringing on the end. They should wish for zombies and meteors.

This was a much nicer way for Toby to find out he was next-of-kin than though a call from Cragen.

Thanks edub!

Ah! I love Toby coming to make sure Elliot is okay. He needs it.

And Toby meeting Cragen? How awkward! Still, it wasn't bad.

[drsquidlove]

Thanks mulder!

I may gleefully drag the boys through misery, but I do the comfort too.

And at least Toby and Cragen had the awfulness of Olivia's plight to distract them.

I'd ask you to promise that nothing bad is going to happen to Holly while she's home alone but you have a tendency to lie whenever I ask questions like that, so I won't.

Hmph.

Holly better be okay while she's home alone.

[drsquidlove]

~laughter~ No trust!

Don't worry. She's safely ensconced in her room, shooting heroin into her eyeballs and baiting Nazis on internet forums.

Don't blame me; she's her father's daughter.

Thanks sue!
