Title: December 14th Blog
Rating/Content: PG13. Depiction of depression. Pre-series. John POV
Word Count: Drabble
Disclaimer: Not my world.
A/N: Written in under ten minutes so fair warning. I haven't posted fic here for over two months and I needed to do something about that. Not cross-posted. Might delete this later. I swear, eventually I will write something happy again. [LJ-only]

Post.

Great job, as always.

John is a great angst-muppet, and I love him for it.
