[White Collar]: Draw the Line

Title: Draw the Line
Fandom: White Collar
Summary: 3.16 coda. Mozzie and Neal wander, and the author flails a lot. A lot.
Notes: This fic can best be described as "angsty/flaily kneejerk reaction coda for the D: that "Judgment Day" has caused me." No one ever said I wasn't self indulgent. Hurr. (Also, further example of how everything I write

Love this. It has such a melancholic tone to it that it kinda makes me sad. I really wonder how Jeff Eastin is going to get Neal back to NY. Cause he's going back there, right? :-)

God, he'd better. :| This finale hurt me in a way I have come to not expect, augh. XD I should just get used to my favorite things doing this to me.

Thank you for commenting! I'm glad you enjoyed.

(Especially as you are a writer whose fics for this fandom I really enjoy, alksdjlf fail lurker.)

This is really lovely. I love the way you portray all the little moments that reveal so much about the Neal&Mozzie friendship. I got a kick out of Neal's dreams too.

Favorite line: Europe is beautiful. (It always is.) Neal’s ankle feels weirdly light, which it shouldn’t. Mozzie seems to sense Neal’s mood and by turns keeps his distance and sticks close, like he’s worried Neal will wander back to New York if he doesn’t watch.

Thank you! I always get a kick out of writing about dreams. They can just be so...weird. And Neal and Mozzie's relationship is so interesting to me, and I'm glad I managed to convey a lot about that relationship in this.

Oooh, thank you for pulling out a line. I love it when people do that. <3 It secretly makes me very happy.

Ooooh, this is such gorgeous angst. Poor, poor Neal. I love the style -- it's beautiful, and it hurts.

This coming from one of my favorite White Collar authors! alksjdf oh my. Thank you so much! I'm glad the style worked, as it felt a little weird when I was writing it (and still does looking at it now, a little).

Guh I just want things to be okaaaay.

Very beautiful and I think all this angst is going to kill me!

[minviendha]

I have come to expect it from my other favorite things but this!!! I was taken by surprise. It was upsetting.

Thank you!

Oh this was lovely and exactly right. Melancholy and sad and wistful.

[minviendha]

Thank you so much! Those are all the exact emotions I was going for - and exactly what I felt when this episode was over. ;__;
