Comment on A Higher Power When You Look

    Yes, the chapter before is probably the most harrowing in the story. Which is saying a lot! Lol.

    Len is very much as asshole. But like—not out here intentionally being one. Just the way he is 😆

    I really do love Scotty and Mira. And they definitely totally love each other, and actually fit and are good for each other. But their relationship goals are always a bit misaligned. I can see them having teary conversations about ‘this just doesn’t work’ and breaking up, —and then, to their friends’ annoyance, falling back into bed again six months later. And both of them thinking it’s never *really* done, until he never comes home again. But yes, they can never really make it work, at least not in the time given them and in the way they might both want. It’s him, being a disaster and a wanderer. It’s her, asking normalcy of him he just can’t do and not able to just … be okay with that. It aches but it always felt to me like that was the way they had to go in the end, at least in this universe.
