Hi. *waves*

[rubykatewriting]

So I am working my way through season one of Teen Wolf. Again. It's becoming a habit when it comes to the end of semester hysteria, and by habit, I mean this is the second time I've done this to make it through the mad rush of last papers and finals with my sanity in tack.

Anyway. It occurred to me as I was watching the scene between Stiles and his father in "Co-Captain" for the millionth time that maybe the Sheriff doesn't talk about his wife. Like, at all. That Stiles reacted the way he did because the Sheriff just doesn't admit that he still feels her loss every day. He's bottled all of that up even as he still wears the ring she placed on his finger all those years ago, still looks at Stiles and sees her, and that's why he really drinks. It's not the stress of the job, not really. It's the stress from her not being there every day. The stress that he's maybe-kinda-sorta fucking up this whole raising-Stiles-thing.

I swear, I don't know if I want to hug or punch Jeff Davis. On any given day, it's one or the other or both because the Stilinski men are very likely going to be the death of me.

Hi.

[painfullystoic]

I didn't get a chance do say goodbye and thank you.

I don't know if you are still checking messages, I saw you were replying to people once in a while and sending them pdfs of your stories. I don't need that. I saw that you had purged your AO3, LJ and tumblr accounts by the time I got back to this pairing in anyway other than reading fanfiction (which I'm probably going to go back to doing because of all the negativity). I don't know how I stumbled upon the link to your dreamwidth, which you don't use, but I guess I was meant to tell you this).

Thank you.

That's what I wanted to say.

You gave me 3 stories that light my darkness, and I wanted to thank you. Because whenever I am sad or upset all I want to do is read one of those stories. You are my go-to. And I miss you, but that's ok. Because I hope that wherever you are you are happy and content and you are at peace with the world all that surrounds you. That you have people who love you and things that make you happy. And you are doing things that make you happy. Because you gave me little snippets of happiness and for that I am immensely grateful.

Happy New Year!

Cheers!

P.S.

So, I didn't know you'd written a sequel to Evergreen, and I found the podfic for it, and I was so incredibly happy to have found it because I missed your writing. You are so incredible and brilliant, thank you so much for all you gave us. Thanks again. Cheers!
