This is the first time I've regretted deciding to do one POV per season. This scene would, I think, have been much more interesting with Josette's POV too.

I really struggled with her dialogue, trying to find the words that she'd want to say, and that would also convey her interior state. Hopefully she feels like a character rather than a plot device who just does what's necessary to make everything work out

What is a word that can describe being both greatly emotionally relieved and have your feels thrown into a blender? BECAUSE THAT IS MY HEART RIGHT NOW! THIS IS SO BEAUTIFUL AND AMAZING AND I JUST LOVE EVERYTHING A BIT THIS BECAUSE I HAVE SEEN THE WHAT HAPPENS IF JO WENT WITH THE OTHER OPINION! ARI YOU BEAUTIFUL BRILLIANT AMAZING GODDESS QUEEN OF AWESOMENESS THANK YOU! *YETIHUG* This is an amazing&emotional chapter and I can't wait to see what you have planned next. *yetihug* Fuck I am tearing up. Thank you for the happy ending.

I admit that it would have been interesting to see exactly what was going through Jo's head while reading this scene but I think it was actually well conveyed the way you did it! I mean, her decision (of staying although this is a rollercoaster) is understandable: both of them still want it to work, and they can hope. At that point the most important was to address the issue that Jo could be waiting for YEARS and for her to be conscious of it and making her mind taking this into account. How the situation will evolve... Well, we'll see. But it doesn't feel like a plot device at all! (although I think Jo quickly recovers from tearing up) What felt weirder to me was that we still didn't get to see Lachlan and Jo's beginning of relationship. They keep refering to the fact that "Cecily met Jo thanks to Lachlan" and "they used to be friends" but we never saw (unless I forgot it all) how it actually turned out and how it got so... Wrong. I mean, I join Kaiyeti on their reaction about Lachlan: I understand that Lachlan is traumatized about the whole notion of building a family again, and that he could be scared when suddenly realizing that a person he likes could actually be Cecily's girlfriend and steal her attention away... but if he and Jo were friends at the beginning, I think that he digs his heels in A LOT by not giving any chance to someone he liked and breaking off all ties instead of building trust, time after time. Of course he is a child and has clear-cut opinions that Jo just MUST NOT be family, and of course Cecily doesn't want to force him behaving differerently; but then, who will help him, if Jo can't get close to him? At this rate he doesn't feel like healing at all and it worries me a little :( Anyway, thank you for all these beautiful characters and interactions!! It really is great to see them grow, especially Cecily here :D

Thank you very much <333 Maybe that's another downside to the one-pov-per-season-thing - there's a lot I can't show that's in Lachlan's head. We won't get Jo and Lachlan's initial meeting until we get one of their POVs (which is a scene I'm really looking forward to!!!)
