    Bookmarker's Notes

    Didn't know if a fix-it fic could work for me for these two, but this one does both because 1) it just makes me even sadder about the original material, and even more importantly 2) it doesn't launder the errors of the characters whatosever. Both kind of shitty dads, as hard as they try; less than kind than they could be to the women in their life; working their way through feelings by substituting them for anger instead. AND loving. AND kind. I am still thinking about Ennis commenting on how shit he feels about Jack doing all the driving with his back, Jack kissing him so hard in case he doesn't come back. I also think the only way that Ennis ever would actually do the scary brave thing is if Jack had survived that attack; without that, there's no immediate catalyst (and I get to enjoy the hurt/comfort of my dreams). Thank you author for making this.
