This was absolutely logical, made complete story sense, and broke my heart when I read it in my copy of Velveteen vs. The Seasons, and it did it again today. I love Velveteen. I love what you wrote here. I know Jackie's fate makes perfect story-sense in that fairy-tales, terrible consequences way, and I love that you didn't let us hate Jack for not being Jackie. (I hurt for her, I really do, even while I miss Jackie almost as much as Jack and Vel do.)
Part of me can't help but hope that there's a happier resolution for Jackie and for Jack, somehow, somewhen. Or at least less pain.
Brilliant writing. I hope we see Vel and the gang again soon. Thank you for this gift.

It'll be interesting to see how else things change in this hiccup of reality...
