94 Du Bellay

Hi everyone,

It’s been some time since I made a post. I, like some others, fell off the show in this last season because the writing was terrible. But with the series finale having aired, and me still feeling very disappointed with s7, I want to focus on something that makes me happy and that’s you all.

I want to thank every last one of you for making my fandom experience so much fun. Your meta made me think and expand my interpretation of the show. Your fanworks made me smile and cry. Your jokes and liveblogs made me laugh and sometimes shout because you’re all so darn funny.

(Chapter 1) (Chapter 2)

Let me know what y’all think!

“Admiral Stevens sent the updates on the East Abir situation and said he wanted to talk about new drone footage during our meeting later today.”

“Ok and afterwards I have the phone call with Prime Minister Madge, right?” Mellie asked with the sweep of her pen as she continued signing papers as Olivia handed them to her.

“Yes, she’s going to want to push for more U.S. troops to assist the German ones already there so make sure you make it clear that we aren’t putting more boots on the ground and risking American lives especially since the situation is deescalating.”

“Right, so speaking of admirals…”

“Were we?” unable to cover up the sarcasm, as the Chief of Staff recognized where this was going.

“I was just wondering how Jake was, I didn’t get to ask earlier.”

What I’m trying to put into words is the fact that, despite my persistent inability at saying such a thing, the idea of you dying for any reason is pretty high on my list of upsetting things—and it’s been like this for while […]“ AKA the fic in which Mellie notices something is up with our favourite modern day Bonnie-and-Clydesque duo and decides to do something about it, because there’s only so much one can let slide.
