How have you been feeling since Alex left? I'm sure devastated and angry like all of us. But I have been kidding myself that maybe one day Justin will come back and they fill fix what they did. But I saw KV's interview now and it sounds like she parted on bad terms with Justin and is incredibly proud of that episode, so there go all my hopes and dreams for them to give Alex and Jolex a good ending. I'm so sad, I can't even put it into words.
Devastated and angry and also sad.
But it’s getting better, tbh. The ending is not something that I accept and for me Grey’s Anatomy ended with 16x06. And what Krista Vernoff said and says just makes me more determined in ignoring the whole mess. Nothing about it makes any sense. It was not done because they cared about Alex. And probably also not because they care about Jo. They say they want to keep telling stories with her and that’s why Alex had to be gone, but why the hell has she barely had any screentime or significance in the last 5 episodes?
And I want to make one thing very clear, just because Jolex are over in this version of the story, does not mean they were meaningless altogether. Please never think that. Please don’t let them be ruined for you. They were not wasted time. Those 8 years mattered. Those 8 years can’t be earsed. Never.
And they still can have a good ending, Anon. We just have to make it up ourselves. As far as I’m concerned that’s just as good - no so much better actually - than what the show writers could ever do.
But I see your pain, too. Because it really does suck that this clusterfuck is the official ending. Alex deserved better. Jo deserved better. Jolex deserved better.
