I like this muches. Sad but hopeful.

[michellek]

Thank you! :)

[parisgal3]

oh this makes me sad in such a good way!

[michellek]

I'm glad! (Which sounds like a weird thing to say to someone you've made sad... but you know what I mean.)

:S

Meeeeeeep!

Man, so, I would have been thrilled with any take on a Mitch wedding, but this one is pretty much exactly what I was hoping for. (You KNOW how I like melancholy.) You even inadvertently worked in one of my top favorite situations to read in fic: when there is a new relationship but they haven't talked about how serious it is (or they have tentatively established that it is not serious) but one of them is heart-wrenched because they want it to be. YAYAY. I love it!

I really do hope you make more of this at some point! :D Thank you!

[michellek]

I'm very glad you liked it! Though I didn't intend for this to take a turn for the melancholy, I did figure you wouldn't be too bothered by such a diversion into SadnessTown. (Note: Not an actual town.) And, I must say, I like that sort of thing, too. It fits into my love of people not being entirely upfront about how they feel.

Also, this made me realize how much I miss writing Jack being melancholy about his feelings for Liz.

P.S. You said you intended to explore this story again AND I AM HOLDING YOU TO THAT. On the life of your kitty cat! I don't know if you have a kitty cat, but watch out if you ever get one -- !!

[michellek]

If my cat dies before I write a longer version of this, you will feel super guilty!

Also, you never told me your Jack/Liz theory... or LJ didn't send me the comment, which is like it never happened.

This made my belly twinge in the same way it does when I see cute kids. So, I don't know what that means...

I liked it, though :)

[michellek]

It means Jack is a cute kid! Or maybe not.

I'm glad. :) Thank you!
