I Have Torn My Way Through Go Your Own Way And Will Start The Sequel Soon And I Am So Obsessed With Joel

I have torn my way through Go Your Own Way and will start the sequel soon and I am so obsessed with Joel and Benny!

I am curious if you ever thought about what would happen if Benny had kept the baby or if that was ever considered. Joel thought it would have ended them but I don't know, it's hard to think that it would have!

Hello! Thank you!

Spoilers ahead for GYOW, for anyone who hasn't read it:

I think this is an interesting question, and the answer to that is complicated. I personally did not consider having Benny choose to continue her pregnancy - it wasn't what I wanted for the plot, or the characters.

If she did, in some parallel universe, choose differently, I think she would have thrown herself into motherhood 100%. I think she would have allowed her love for her child to override any hatred for their biological father (eventually) and she would have been content with that decision (eventually).

I think Joel would have tried, and that's the best I could say for him.

In the end, I can't say for sure that it would have ended their marriage, but it certainly would have damaged it.

...it is almost 9 o'clock at night, March.

Just wanted to say I love you and your words so very much 🥹 I hope you never change. And also I hope ALAYF never ends ❤️

I love you. But...March...

It has to end.

I'm so tired. 🥹

I wish I could remember what fic it was, but there was a part in it about Tommy and Joel when they were out on the road, and how bothered Tommy was by some of the things he saw concerning women, how he personally didn't have the taste for that kind of violence - and there was a line about how Joel viewed sex that was something like "and he didn't care for it unless the woman was screaming for it," and let me tell you, that line lives rent-free in my head and yes, yes.

Yeah, sure. You can write your smut where he is rough with his hands and punishing with his pace, where he talks down to his partner and controls every aspect of the scene -

But have ya'll forgotten? "Deep breath in, slow breath out. Squeeze the trigger like you love it. Gentle...steady...nice and slow."

No one talk to me, I'm being gay and doing crimes

I will probably be posting the last full-length chapter of As Long as You Follow tomorrow, and yes, I am a little sobby about it.
