She raised an eyebrow at him, when did she ever cause a simple scar? “I don’t want to talk about it further, do I have time to check on Tate before going to my court?” He nodded “he’s being treated by Daver” she felt relieved, Daver was the best healer and telekinesis, if anyone could fix Tate, it’s him, the two headed together to the isolated infirmary, Daver greeted them, the queen noticed her brother was tied to the bed, she wasn’t pleased “it’s for his own safety” Daver explained, she nodded and took a seat next to him, caressing his cheek softly “any progress?” The man shook his head “it’s complicated, it’s like he’s not one person, every time I communicate with him mentally I’m met by someone different”

“I don’t understand?” The queen said looking at the healer “with Lancelot, he knows who he is, but he forced himself into forgetting, while Tate created several personas in order to protect himself” he explained “certain events trigger one character more than the others, but never Tate, they’re all trying to protect him” he added “well, keep working until you trigger Tate” She said as if it was that easy “your grace… if I trigger Tate, he will be mentally a unstable, he wouldn’t understand half of the things in this world nor recall any events” he said with concern “can you unite them? The five?” , “I can try but I don’t think it’s possible now with-“, “then trigger Tate” She interrupted, placing a kiss on her brother’s forehead before leaving to the court.

She wanted to scream and cry, her brother was broken, literally broken into different pieces in his head, she headed to the court and put on a strong face, although Illian did a great job but most people wanted her guidance and reassurance, she later had a meeting with the generals in order to plan the upcoming war, she also sent people to keep her updated on her brother’s state who seemed to be worsening instead of recovering, she returned home late at night, hoping Lancelot was asleep because the moment she was between these walls, she broke into tears.

Her luck was the definition of crap, her husband had heard her coming and came to greet her “Tarja?” He asked as he saw her hugging her legs and sobbing, once she felt his presence she brushed away her tears and put on a brave face “Tarja, what happened?” He asked, joining her on the floor, she shook her head “it’s nothing” she forced a smile to comfort the bruised man “why are you still awake? You should rest to recover” She sniffled, pretending it was nothing “I can’t sleep without you home” he admitted.

Timeline

Mystery Room Inspector 29 CURRENT INSPECTOR Alfendi Layton, inspector of New Scotland Yard's "Mystery Room", at your service.

Growing up too Fast 6-8 CHILDHOOD STUDENT Little Alfendi Layton is a young child who's been exposed to the harshness of the world far too early. With a neglectful, abusive mother, Al and Fendi have no choice but to fend for themselves.

Every Rose has its Thorns 8 CHILDHOOD STUDENT A deadly pandemic has swept the city of Portland, Maine. Alfendi has lost their mother to the Rosalia virus, and they're now fighting the same virus in Resurgam hospital. Now that their mother has passed, Alfendi is now in a state of limbo; once they recover from Rosalia, they will surely be picked up by CPS and taken into foster care.

It Takes A Village 8-12 CHILDHOOD STUDENT Young Alfendi is a lot like older Alfendi, but a lot… more so. Fendi is very, very eager to please people and be quiet, kind, friendly, and helpful, while Al is violent, isn’t very good with his anger management, gets into trouble often, and has a tendancy to drive people away. These two are a handful, but they’re doing their best after everything they’ve been through. They live now with their adoptive father, Hershel Layton, and their sisters, Katrielle Layton and Flora Reinhold-Layton.

A Teenager with Teenage Problems 13-17 TEENAGEHOOD STUDENT Alfendi's life hasn't been easy so far, but now, he's finally in a good place, with a loving, supportive family. Al is still violent and destructive at times, lashing out at people, but with support from his school, family, and therapy, he's getting better. Fendi struggles with socializing and making friends, and Al's reputation isn't helpful, but he's making progress, too.

Too Soon the World Came Crashing Down 18-22 College years Student It’s an young adult Alfendi, aged 18 - 22. Al and Fendi are struggling with the disappearance of their father, the juggling of college, a minimum wage job, the care of a child, and house work. They’re very tired and very stressed, but they’re doing their best to stay afloat despite the hardship.

A Foreboding Fate 23-24 Pre-Forbodium Inspector Alfendi Layton: renowned homicide inspector within Scotland Yard. He's currently on a task force working to catch the Jigsaw Killer, and when off the clock, looking into the case of his missing father. He's just moved into his father's old flat, but he's still a primary caregiver for his little sister.

AU

The Path Less Travelled 29 CURRENT INSPECTOR

This verse is an imagining of what might've happened if Lisa hadn't died, and thus, things turned out slightly differently. Instead of adopting Alfendi after his mother's death, Hershel Layton bonds with Fendi, meets Al, and uncovers the truth behind his and Lisa's relationship. With some strings pulled, Hershel was able to foster Alfendi.

Nowadays, Alfendi Cunningham is the sole inspector of the Scotland Yard's Mystery Room. Al is a well-liked character at the Yard, acting much like a big brother to those he's familiar with. He teases, but it's all in good fun. Fendi, in juxtaposition to Al, is reclusive, standoffish, and quiet, and tends to be the character that others avoid, which is perfectly fine by him. He'd rather do his work quietly and go home than socialize.

Since the hospital, Alfendi has had a few interactions with his mother: Her trial, where he stood as a witness at the age of nine, and a meeting with her at her prision at the age of sixteen, which didn't go well. Since then, Alfendi has been no-contact with his mother.

Ten Thousand Little Voices 29 CURRENT INSPECTOR AND UNWILLING SPIRIT MEDIUM

Alfendi Layton has a secret: he can hear, and sometimes see, the dead. While this is an amazing power, if someone asked him about it, he would say that he'd rather live without it. While it can be helpful at times, if he happens to overhear the voice of his case's victim declaring the name of their murderer and such, most of the time it causes him more harm than good. If he helps one spirit with their unresolved business, the rest will come flocking to him, asking for help, and as one man with two identities, he simply can't help every single ghost. He is forced to ignore the spirits, pretending he can't hear or see them, and this tears him apart inside.

Because of his ability and the fact that he can't shut it off, Alfendi suffers from frequent migranes, fatigue, and irritability late in the day.

Nobody Suspects A Thing 6 PRE-ROSALIA NONE

One day, little Alfendi finds an octopus man on the shores of Portland, Maine. What he didn't expect was that this octopus man would rescue him from his terrible home life and take him in as his own.

Since then, they've become a tight-knit trio, bonding over the fact that they're hiding a 16-foot-tall octopus man in Alfendi's house without his mother knowing. This lasts two years, before the Rosalia Virus pandemic strikes the city, and Lisa leaves Alfendi at home while she rushes to the hospital after developing symptoms. A few days later, Alfendi begins developing symptoms of his own, and in an act of brute strength and willpower, Kraken manages to singlehandedly carry Alfendi across the city to the hospital. There, they meet one Hershel Layton, and their lives were changed forever.

A Promise to Gabriel 8 AND ONWARD ROSALIA N/A

Alfendi Cunningham, age 8, has come down with the Rosalia Virus. Fortunately for him, he's under the care of a top doctor, one Dr. Karsten Lorimer. As it turns out, years before, Karsten had been a good friend of his father, Gabriel, and promised to him that if anything happened to him, Karsten would take care of Alfendi. Shortly after, Gabriel and Alfendi were involved in a bus accident, one that killed Gabriel and injured Alfendi. Karsten operated on Alfendi's legs. Five years later, Alfendi and his mother contracted the Rosalia virus, and Karsten, who had been flown in from overseas to help lighten the load of the hospitals, began tending to Alfendi, who is among many who are bedridden.

This is a spin-off of Nobody Suspects a Thing.

A Found Family 8 AND ONWARD ROSALIA N/A

Karsten Lorimer, after having adopted Alfendi Lorimer, meets Claira Davers, a charming, funny woman who works as a forensic pathologist. Over time, the two fall in love, and Claira starts to integrate into the family.

This is a spin-off of A Promise to Gabriel.

We Are Rosalia 8 AND ONWARD ROSALIA N/A

The world is infected with the Rosalia virus, A virus that has become sentient, and those infected become part of the hivemind. A man with a target on his head by the virus and a small boy, sick with Rosalia, is humanity’s last hope. He promised gabriel to protect this boy, Alfendi, and he will.

Follow their story as Karsten Lorimer races against time and races through America, curing Rosalia... and hopefully, Not becoming one of them.

This is a spin-off of A Promise to Gabriel.

The Last Survivor 8 AND ONWARD ROSALIA N/A

The world is infected with the Rosalia virus, A virus that has become sentient, and those infected become part of the hivemind. The entire world, and every living thing within it, has been infected, and now planet Earth is nothing but an incubator for one hivemind organism... Except for one creature, Kraken, a octoman who cannot be infected.

Knowing that Kraken is the key to creating a Rosalia cure and vaccine, Rosalia has developed a relationship with the Kraken, creating a bond of trust with which Rosalia can monitor him easily.

This is a spin-off of Nobody Suspects a Thing and We Are Rosalia.

Other Worldly CHILD 8 AND ONWARD N/A

TBA.

CROSSOVER

Multiverse: Parallel Worlds Theory 29 CURRENT INSPECTOR

A catch-all crossover verse. In this verse, Alfendi is aware of the multiverse, and things that happen and interactions that take place in this verse are remembered, and regarded as canon to this verse. (Ex: If Alfendi interacts with a Flora, then interacts later with a different Flora, he's aware that these two Floras are different people and still remembers the prior interaction with the first Flora.)

The Truth Lies in the Evidence 29 CURRENT DETECTIVE

After the events of Forbodium, Alfendi Layton moved to Los Angeles, California for a change of scenery and people to help move on from the past. It seems that the legends of Professor Layton have travelled all the way to America, as Alfendi is hired by the LAPD as a homicide detective despite his besmirched record. Alfendi now works closely with the prosecutor's office to find and punish criminals, but it can be difficult with all this false evidence being thrown around, not to mention these damn defense attornies thinking they can just wander on the scene and take whatever evidence they please. The legal system here needs work.

A Ghost of the Person I Used to Be 29 CURRENT DECEASED

The events at Forbodium four years later took a different turn. When Justin arrived at the scene, Diane already had her gun pressed against Alfendi's head. Diane, knowing she was about to die but determined to exact her revenge on the man she believed to have killed her father, shot first, killing Alfendi before she took a bullet from Justin's gun, and Justin Lawson changed the scene of the crime to set Lucy up to take the fall for the murder of Diane Makepeace with the motive of revenge killing. Under typical circumstances, this is where the story of Alfendi Layton would have ended.

These circumstances, however, are far from typical. It so happens that on the night he died, Keelan Makepeace had been wearing a very special locket, one with a shard of a very special meteorite kept in it.This meteorite, the Temsik Meteorite, grants special powers known as 'ghost tricks' to the spirits of those who die in its presence. This necklace was given to Diane Makepeace among the rest of her father's belongings, and having recognized it as her father's favorite necklace, she wore it non-stop for four straight years. In the tower, that day Alfendi and Diane died, she had been wearing it, just like every other day.

Alfendi and Diane found themselves in the strange predicament of being dead but not as dead as they imagined they would be, wielding paranormal powers. The two of them hitched a ride out of Forbodium on the belongings of the crime scene investigators. Diane, having exacted her revenge on Alfendi and realizing that her father may still be roaming the earth, parts ways with Alfendi after reaching the city, and Alfendi lets her go, seeing as she no longer has any murderous intent and that he no longer has any sort of way to punish her. Now, Alfendi mostly spends his days silently watching over his sisters, lurking at crime scenes and using ghost tricks to bring attention to evidence, and wandering aimlessly across London.

Officer Jenny is a Stereotype 29 CURRENT INSPECTOR

In the Pokémon universe, Alfendi Layton is an inspector with the police in Windon, Galar. With his two trusty Lycanrocs, a midday form called Sola and a midnight form named Fang, Alfendi works hard to catch criminals.

Alfendi was raised in Unova with his father, a doctor at a Castelia city Pokémon center, but a terrible accident took his life, forcing Alfendi to live his his abusive mother. A few years later, an outbreak of a deadly disease killed her, and Hershel Layton, a Pokémon professor from Galar who had been helping to find a cure for the disease, took in Alfendi as his own.

While Hershel was studying different forms of Pokémon, he caught three Rockruff puppies and raised them in his home. Al and Fendi bonded with the puppies, and when Alfendi started his own Pokémon journey, Hershel gifted two of the pups to him as his starters (the third, the dusk form, was still being studied).

Alfendi gathered six badges, but his journey was cut short. He needed to return home suddenly to take care of his little sister, Katrielle, because Hershel suddenly vanished. Instead of continuing his gym challenge, he took up a job working as an officer to help support his family, and over time, rose the ranks to Inspector.

Not Such A Lone Wolf 29 CURRENT INSPECTOR

Alfendi is a wolf who's decided to get away from boring everyday life by signing up for Tom Nook's not-so-deserted island getaway package. Now he lives there, going about his new life, making friends, catching fish and insects to sell for bells, and collecting and crafting furniture. Oh, and he also works at the island's police station as an inspector, where he mainly watches over the lost and found, helps to settle disputes amongst fellow villagers, and works to catch that scamming scoundrel, Redd the con artist. What a quiet life he leads, now.

The Eye on the Sparrow, Chapter Four

Next chapter. That will probably be all for this fic this week. Hopefully, I’ll post more of it next week.

Chapter One, Chapter Two, Chapter Three

Summary: Sid meets up with an old friend...

Chapter Four

The rain that lasted most of the day eventually gave way to a cool, crisp twilight. It was the sort of evening that felt perfect to Sid for a night out to himself. Thus, after he drove Lady Felicia back home from the Bolton’s party, he stopped by his caravan, changed out of his chauffeur’s uniform, and headed off to the Red Lion.

He had about the uninvited guests who dropped by the party from Lady Felicia as he drove her home. From what she said, it sounded like something Sid almost regretted missing. Almost. After all, there was the consolation of hanging around the kitchen and having all the leftovers he wanted. As well as getting to know the Bolton’s newest maid.

Sid walked up to the bar and ordered himself a beer. He had hoped to run into his new acquaintance at the pub tonight. Although, he also knew that that was dependent on whether or not she could get her share of the cleanup from the party done early enough. He took his time drinking his first two beers and listened in on a few conversations to pass the time. Not only was it mildly entertaining, but he never knew when something he heard could prove useful to the Father during an investigation at some point.

He hung around for a couple of hours, but saw no sign of the girl he had planned on meeting. Disappointed, Sid started to head for the bar again to get one more for the road before heading back to his caravan for an early night for a change.

“Sid Carter…and here I thought I’d never see you again.”

Sid turned from the bar to see who had spoken to him and was stunned by what he saw. The man behind him had a tweed suit and a mustache and had aged a few years since he had seen him last. It took him a few seconds to get past these superficial changes, but once he did, a huge grin appeared on his face.

“Nicky? Nicky Anders? Is that really you?” Sid walked over and shook Nicky’s hand and patted his arm. “I don’t believe it. Look at you. Looks like you made out all right.”

“And you’re still here in Kembleford,” Nicky said, patting Sid’s shoulder. “Somehow, I always knew you’d end up staying here. And what about that priest? Father Brown? Did he get back all right? And what about you?”

“Yeah, he came back just before the war ended,” Sid replied. “As for me, there’s not much to tell. I still do odd jobs and handyman work. On top of that you can add being a chauffeur for a lady.”

“Sid Carter, going straight and doing honest work?” Nicky said, shaking his head in disbelief.

“Well, mostly honest work,” Sid chuckled. “But what about you? I never did hear what happened to you after you got out of Kembleford.”

“Honesty, I’m sorry about that,” Nicky said. “I really am. I was just so desperate to leave, I suppose I took that out on you. And then I got so busy with my new life, the years just sort of slipped away. You are right though that my fortunes have definitely changed.”

Nicky walked over toward the bar with Sid walking alongside him. “Before I get into that though, I’m feeling rather parched.”

“Sure,” Sid said. He waved to get the attention of the bartender. “Two beers.”

“And I’m buying,” Nicky said, holding up a ten shilling note. Sid grinned back at him.

“Well, I’m not going to argue that,” he said. “So come on, what did happen?”

Nicky held up his hand to wait until they had gotten their beers and he had paid for them. Then they moved to sit at one of the tables near the back.

“I got a job,” Nicky said, sipping his drink. “A proper one. You heard of Andrew Carstairs? The retail mogul?”

“Yeah, Lady F…I mean, Lady Felicia…she’s the lady I work for,” Sid said. “She mentioned he showed up at a party I took her to earlier today. From what she said, he sounds like a real piece of work.”

“Well, I can’t agree with you too much there,” Nicky chuckled. “Because he’s my employer now.”

“You’re kidding,” Sid replied, smirking. Nicky took a long drag on his beer before laughing again.

“It’s true,” he insisted. “You’re looking at Mr. Carstairs’ personal assistant.”

“Right,” Sid chuckled. “And how did you swing that, eh? Whatever it was, it must have been a whopper of a scheme.”

“It was nothing as underhanded as you’re implying,” Nicky smiled. “He happened to know my previous employer, who recommended me for the job.”

“Maybe so, but you don’t exactly strike me as the typewriter and shorthand type,” Sid countered. “So what are you doing for him?”

“All sorts of things,” Nicky shrugged. He gulped down most of his beer before continuing. “I look after things for him. Check up on the other people who work for him to make sure they’re doing their jobs. When he’s thinking about making a business deal with someone, I go out ahead of him to get the ‘lay of the land’ so to speak. And, of course, I do any other odd jobs that need doing.”

“And he pays you pretty well for all that then?” Sid asked.

“Enough to keep my comfortable,” Nicky said. “For now anyway.”

“You thinking of making a change in the near future?”

“Let’s just say that I always like to keep my options open,” Nicky said, finishing his beer. “It’s no good to let yourself stagnate. Right?”

“I guess,” Sid shrugged. “You never were one for letting the grass grow under your feet.”

“That’s why I was always the one who was better at spotting opportunities,” Nicky laughed. “Especially when we were working together.”

“Hang on,” Sid said, sitting upright in his chair. “I was the one who told you about that Davers job and how loose the old man was with his money. And that was one of the best jobs we ever pulled. Oh and what about that woman with her music box collection. Or did you forget about how I had to hang around and listen to all those blinking music boxes for a week so we could work out a plan?”

“You’re forgetting though that I was the one who made all those plans run smoothly,” Nicky argued. “That’s why we worked so well together. I was the brains. You were the brawn.”

“Funny, I don’t remember it like that,” Sid smirked.

“You always did have a bad memory,” Nicky smirked back. “It’s why you need someone to keep you in line.”

After that, the conversation moved between playful bickering and fond recollections of the various schemes and mishaps the two of them had gotten into as boys. It felt a bit odd to Sid to be able to laugh so much about those times now. Back then, Nicky was facing poverty and he was still dealing with the loss of his parents and then with Father Brown leaving Kembleford for the war. But somehow, the passage of time had smoothed away most of the unhappy parts of that time which allowed the good memories shine through.

Or maybe it was just easier to remember the good times while things were currently better in his life.

As they downed some more beers, Sid also contemplated the sense of relief that he had over seeing Nicky again. He had always wondered what had happened to him after they had parted ways. Nicky was clever, of course, but he also had a tendency to get more than a little shortsighted in his quest for more money. Sid worried that that aspect of Nicky’s personality could get him mixed up with the wrong people and that that could lead to Nicky spending a long time in prison…or worse.

Instead, it looked as if Nicky had charmed and conned his way into a prosperous and, on the surface anyway, legal way of life. Sid was happy for him as he remembered how much hardship Nicky and his family had suffered.

On a more personal level, Sid was also pleased that their friendship had not been broken beyond repair. Nicky had been one of the closest friends Sid had ever had. It felt good to reconnect with him, especially now that neither of them was doing badly in life.

Sid finished off his latest pint and let out a loud burp before leaning back in his chair. “So, how long do you think you’ll be in Kembleford?”

“I don’t know,” Nicky said before draining what was left in his glass. “A week at least. Mr. Carstairs is looking at some business opportunities around here. Says that there’s real potential out in these parts.”

“Good luck to him then,” Sid nodded. “In the meantime, maybe the two of us could meet up again. I know a place where you can get the best shepherd’s pie in all of Kembleford.”

“I’d like that,” Nicky said. “And perhaps I can offer something to you as well. Like a chance to do some high-paying work?”

“Sounds promising. What kind of work did you have in mind?”

“Too early to say,” Nicky answered. “It’ll depend on what my boss wants done. But when something comes up, I could put in a good word for you. Who knows? It could lead to something more permanent. We could be partners again.”

Sid smiled at him. The prospect of working with Nicky again and making a good living while doing it did appeal to him. However, the vague way Nicky talked about it made Sid wonder if what they would be doing would be entirely legal. Not that that alone was enough to deter Sid, but these days it did give him some pause. Plus, a permanent position could mean having to leave Kembleford which he also wasn’t sure about.

“Yeah, let me know,” Sid said. “And I’ll be sure to think about it.”

“Well don’t take too long to think about it,” Nicky cautioned. “If something does come up, you won’t want to let it pass you by ‘cause you might not get another opportunity.”

Sid nodded again and pulled out a cigarette from his pocket. He wasn’t all that sure about his chances to work with Nicky again long term.

However, he was determined to not let his chance to mend their friendship slip by him.

Later that night, after the moon had started to wane in the sky, a figure dressed in black snuck onto the Bolton estate.

Slowly and carefully, they crept up to the main house and managed to slip in through an open window near the foyer. They had to wait patiently whenever a servant appeared nearby, but their patience paid off as they slipped past all of them and managed to make it over to the study. They opened the door and made sure to close it with great care so it wouldn’t creak.

Then the figure walked around the room, as if to admire all the lavish furnishings and large inventory of books. It wasn’t long though before they walked over to their intended destination: a small stand next to the oak desk that sat in the back of the room. The stand held a small collection of crystal bottles, including one that held some whiskey.

They opened a window and dumped the remainder of the whiskey into the bushes outside. Then they pulled another bottle out of a pouch that was slung around their shoulder. The contents were poured into the now empty container and appeared to be identical to what had been in there before.

Soon, the bottle was filled and returned to its previous spot on the stand. The empty bottle that the figure had brought with them was put back into the pouch. Then they climbed out of the window and dashed off into the night, quickly being swallowed by the darkness.

Tomorrow. Tomorrow their mission would be complete. And Alistair Bolton would pay for what he had done.

New Girl Rewatch Party: 2 x 23 - Virgins

Oh, man...I’m so behind with this.

Ok...Here’s my gifset of the elevator scene :) (x)

I love the beginning of this episode. Jess putting the shaving cream on Cece is so weirdly funny. I have to say I think it’s really gross that Schmidt has the device and he uses with different women. I always felt bad for Winston and his love life. He “has so much love to give”. Now he has Aly :)

1. Nick coming out of the stall and Winston and Schmidt buying his “I sit there to listen to you” is hilarious. But the cute thing is Nick jealous of Jess the whole episode. He is so smitten in this episode. “Oh, from your wonderful secret garden”. I find it really brotherly like (is that a thing?) of Schmidt and Winston to try to be there for Nick when he is insecure about Teddy.

2. Schmidt saying “If this is another sewing story, I swear to God” makes me wonder how many sewing stories Jess must have. And Winston making his observation “Oregon sucks” haha. Also: teenage Jess seems to have a big head for the rest of her body. I don’t know what it is exactly...but she looks a little weird in that scene.

3. Schmidt is jealous of Cece. First making fun of the possible guy she lost her virginity with, and then making the Beatles reference when he knows it was. with Mick Jagger. I think it’s cute :)

4. Winston’s commentary to Nick being a “Daver”: White people. Haha  I love flashbacks with Nick and Schmidt in college. I wish we had more of those. Max Greenfield knows how to be sweet and vulnerable as fat!Schmidt, and the neurotic, ex-douchebag that we know. Plus: Nick had so many different looks. What is up with that hair and moustache? I’m glash he is not like that anymore.

5. First thing: That is one scary jar of lubricant. I don’t know why Schmidt thought he had to put on Elizabeth’s arm too, but ok. I’m not a big fan of phisical comedy, but this scene always makes me laugh so hard. And the song in the background “I’ll make love to you” - Boyz II Men makes the whole thing funnier.

6. Teens Winston and Nick (again Nick and his weird hair). I love how Winston tries to be this super cool dude, and just shows how young he was. And Nick is just freaking out. Nick: I’m gonna do it to you. Octopussy: you're gonna do what to me? Crying Nick: I don’t know! HAHAHA

7. This must be one of the most important conversations Nick ever had in his life - and I think the most valueable thing his father ever told him. Nick being the person who doesn’t do anything if he doesn’t know how will go, needed someone to tell him those things. It was because of what his father said so many years ago that he finally got the courage to go be with Jess.

8. Season 2 is my favorite season. And also the season that I think all the characters looked their best. They were all so hot! That being said... I love this episode mostly because it’s a bottle one. The characters are just there, talking, listening to things that happened in their lives, making fun of each other...you know...just being friends. I miss this so much. The strong part of the show is the ensemble. I think the writers need to remember this for S7.

A little comment on Jess's story. Apparently time passes differently there ... when she starts telling the story she and Cece are at the bar at night. She goes to the playground with the prom guy and says she spent 2 hours there with him. And suddenly it's already morning and with a children's birthday party going on. Great continuity....

9. While Jess is telling why it was good with Teddy you can totally see she’s looking at Nick, maybe waiting to see how he would react...maybe she’s just thinking how things could have gone with him...I don’t know. And Nick is clearly thinking a lot of things at once. He looks a little panicky.

10. Nick talking just to Jess about how he lost his virginity gives a much more intimate air to the scene. And she hoped he would ask her not to go and meet Teddy. I can see the ice he feels inside when he stands there staring at her. Plus: I like the way she moves her glasses before she leaves.

Bonus 1:

I love how he grabs her and takes her to his room (I’ll never forgive the writers for making Robby do the same to her this season). And they just look at the bed like it’s this thing they want but fear at the same time, because everything will change forever after this. The way they look at each other and kiss. Nick gives this little smile to Jess before he kisses her...ugh.... It melts my heart.

Bonus 2

The way they look at each other afterwards. You can see they are totally happy and at the same time thinking “ok...now what?”
