    FISHING (6)

    vs.

    "ALWAYS" (5)


    This was a tough one, but I have to go with "always" because it was so heartfelt and RDA delivered it perfectly. I don't know if without that promise there would have been any fishing... it also means that even without the fishing, he'll always be there for her.

    Luckily for all of us (and Sam) there actually was fishing!
    Unmade Plans (WIP: 11/20):
    Sam's life takes a turn in an unexpected direction when she's faced with an unplanned pregnancy. The decision to keep the baby and raise it on her own will alter her life forever. Relationships are put to the test, especially the one between her and Jack. She doesn't know what to expect from him and he surprises her at every turn.
    On FFnet or AO3


    My S/J fics can be found on FFnet and AO3. I also tweet and tumble about the ship and my writing/stories.

If I want to hear my native language I'll watch the news or talk to friends and family


      I also come from Sweden but I look at English but not the subtitled, because it is so much better! They have the ability to shorten and modify a huge irritant way. but it's not a disadvantage that my English is getting better and in Sweden hard with us to learn how to , write and speak English. I'm pretty bad to be fifteen, so it is only good for me.

      If you always expect the worst you get only good news

          You know, it's really not the fish, it's the company you keep while you do it. For Sam and Jack, it's spending the rest of their lives together.

              Thus making ALWAYS more important. Because every Tom, Dick and Harry can fish. Being committed enough to be willing to pledge ALWAYS is way more important!

                  Thanks in advance!
                  Woo-hoo, new fic!! Looking forward to it, Fems!

                    "ALWAYS" (6)


                    This was SO difficult! I'm still not sure I'm making the right choice...the two go hand in hand. BUT: I'm going with 'Always':
                    1) Because I'm evil and want to tie the game.
                    2) "Always" is the promise of forever...

                            Yep!

                            Still at work. Will be home sometime around 1 am. Hopefully, the internet in my house is working again.

                              I chose Fishing because even though you can feel the warmth in the way Jack says the word Always, his promise to Sam that he is committed to her forever...I find more meaning and depth in the actual showing her that he honestly means that word. It's one thing to say it, but it's another to show it, to prove it. I can hear the love in your voice, Jack, now show me that love...hence, the Fishing.

                                Right now I'm tempted to vote for fishing. But because I'm exhausted and need to get to bed I'm giving you another 24 hours to duke it out. So gather up your friends and supporters and get them to vote.

                                I'll be back tomorrow night (or morning or whatever it is).
