Just Jump

Sports Night, Dana Whittaker, PG-13, ~1,000 words

For kudra2324. Thanks to octette and arsenicjade for the betas and for telling me that this could have been a much longer story and putting up with my stylistic weirdness when it comes to tense, respectively.

Posted for 14valentines, [Day 1] Body Image

( Dana is terrified of heights, but she jumps anyway. )

YES. I barely know that canon, but this is a self-contained character sketch if I ever read one. Stunning.

Thank you SO much. I love character sketches and it makes me happy to hear that this one works.

This is excellent. I love the way the past and the present tie together, and you've managed to condense so much of Dana into a thousand words. So good.

“Yes.” Dana manages to not make it a question despite every inch of training she’s ever had.

i REALLY liked this line.

this is so great! i love dana and i love your take on her.
