It's a cool book, you've got to admit.

I have too many bookmarks. Literally, I can't find anything, anymore. So, they're alllllll going here. I'm not going to post everything in the main tags, obviously. I don't really want to be horrendously annoying. Besides, I don't think -- at the start of this, at least -- that I'll be posting all that much, if anything, that people haven't seen before. I just want a place to find things, better.

She remembers the last time this has happened, except she was approaching him on the bench, looking for something she could never seem to find except whenever she was with him.

"Hey, Rosemary, you’ll wake the baby," hissed a voice from behind her.

"Rosemary?"

"It’s three in the morning," Jess (who was, slightly disappointingly, not in his pajamas. Rory had always wondered what he wore to bed.) sat down beside her, "excuse me if my references aren’t very sharp."

So, now what? Now, we should… Well, I think we either need to get a little closer or need to warm up. Okay.

A couple of weeks before Mom and Luke’s wedding, Jess shows up. Rory almost has a heart attack the first time she sees him, sprawled casually on a bench with a copy of something folded in one hand.

Jess grows up and moves on, but old habits die hard. 

Heavy Jess/OC and Rory/OC at the start.

What if the boyfriend boxes made an appearance when Rory was engaged? General banter-ful romp through a free-for-all conversation between Lorelai, Rory, Sookie, Lane, and Jess.

She doesn't know what will be worse to her mom – potentially sleeping with your boyfriend at a party or running off with him to New York City in the middle of the night.

Set during Rory and Jess’ senior year. What it might have been like if Rory had a bit more of a backbone and Jess had a bit more of an idea that sometimes he just needed to be there with her.

Just hearing him on the phone unsettled Lorelai, so she can’t imagine how Rory handled it in person. Or maybe Rory was just proud that Jess morphed into the potential man she saw in him years ago.

[*This is obviously not Rory and Jess smooching or anything, but I think any interaction between Jess and Lorelai is important. Hence the tag -- obviously not meant in a romantic tone.]

It’s painfully obvious that this is so much more than sex for him, and maybe it is for you, too. You could have just gone out and found some random guy in a bar, but you chose Jess. You’re unwilling to think about what that means right now.
