Thank you, dear! I'm glad you enjoyed the episode so much--I feel sadly out of step with what's left of fandom about it. It wasn't so much the wasted opportunities as that I just couldn't get past the pain of what was coming in order to enjoy any of the rest of it. It was like someone was driving a spike into my stomach the entire hour. It's been 36 hours now and I still want to bawl constantly. *g*

But I feel all energized to write again, which is kind of a weird side effect. *g*
