“bethanyactually replied to your post “wordybee replied to your post...”
@wordybee Yeah, there's a whole other comment to be made about the problems with the's show's attitude about lawyers and its assumption that in order to be a good one, one must be ~evil~ and lack a conscience. That's ridiculous! There are plenty of principled, good-hearted lawyers in the world, and there's no reason Jeff (who is smart and clever and has wanted to be a lawyer since he was a kid) couldn't be one of them! (h/t @pepperf who pointed most of this out to me)

I think it's why I enjoy @hello-wright-or-wrong's What We Don't Know fic so much because you can read a taste of Actual Lawyer!Jeff doing his thang'.
All excellent points, mi’ladies. And a good plug for @hello-wright-or-wrong‘s lawyer AU. :)
I’m re-reading @hello-wright-or-wrong ‘s Pins In The Map for the 102108th time and honestly, this is so painfully accurate that it gets to me every time:
[Britta:] “I always figured it would happen at some point,” she tells him. “I mean, you’ve had a soft spot for her the size of Texas since the beginning. And she thinks you hung the damn moon or something.”
He shakes his head.
[Jeff]: “No. She doesn’t,” he insists. “She just knows that I could have if I really wanted to.”

Okay so @hello-wright-or-wrong tagged me in the lil’ 8x8 about me tag thing, and although I’ve done it recently I thought I’d extend my answers just because. I probs won’t tag anyone but here you go:
⬛ Last movie I watched: Tomorrowland - I actually don’t watch movies that often unless it’s with my family and they haven’t wanted to watch anything recently so... yeah. It was okay.
⬛ Last song I listened to: Cincinnati Clocks by Ourselves the Elves - It was in my Spotify Discover Weekly playlist. I didn’t even finish listening 😂
⬛ Last book I read: When the World Answered: Florence, Women Artists and the 1966 Flood by Jane Fortune and Linda Falcone - A birthday gift about the flood in Florence in 1966 (because I’m in Florence rn). It’s quite interesting so far!
⬛ Last thing I ate: My mum’s coffee cake for breakfast. I’m really lazy with breakfast... I’ll make up for it by eating Greek salad for lunch, okay?!
⬛ Where would you want to time travel to?: Hmm, I’m not sure. I’m not much of a time travel-y person in the sense that I’m not really that interested in the idea. But maybe back to like the 70s to visit some cool places and see what life was like (because yes, I am a Youth).
⬛ Fictional character I would hang out with for a day: I always say Jeff Winger to this answer just because I’d like to give him a hug. Like a real good, squeeze of a hug.
⬛ If I could be anywhere right now, where would I be?: To mix up my answers I’ll actually say back in Sardinia, simply for this one beach we went to quite a few times which was just utterly beautiful. I have never seen the sea so blue and clear.
⬛ Current fandom obsession: How To Get Away With Murder. GAH so addictive! My @cowboyjonathanmchale account has basically just become a side blog for it. Also, it really shows how I have a thing for fictional broken men with beards. Halp.
I’m so excited that there is new @hello-wright-or-wrong fic that I’m going to get into my PJs, tidy my room and then properly get in the zone to read it.
Rules: Answer all questions, add one question of your own and then tag as many people as there are questions. (I’m just gonna no-pressure tag @zacscottysnl @bumblebeeslies @loosey-goosey and @celerylapel)
Coke or Pepsi? Coke. Always. Although, sometimes a Pepsi will be offered instead in say, a pub or restaurant and I won’t exactly turn it down.
Disney or Dreamworks? Um.... lol, idk, Dreamworks?
Coffee or tea? Tea. All day every day. Always.
Books or movies? Books, probably. I hate deciding on movies.
Windows or Mac? Windows, although I would one day like a Mac.
DC or Marvel? Neither. Not my kind of jam.
Xbox or Playstation? Playstation!
Night owl or early riser? Night owl... mainly because I don’t have to be awake at a specific time and I usually stay up talking to @zacscottysnl because #timezones
Cards or Chess? Um.... neither? Lmao.
Chocolate or vanilla? Chocolate, specifically white.
Vans or Converse? Neither. Support those ethical brands, people!
Star Wars or Star Trek? Star Wars all the way. Never watched Star Trek and I have no interest in doing so, sahry.
One episode per week or marathoning? Hahahaha, marathoning.
Gandalf or Obi-Wan? Obi-Wan because I’ve never watched Lord of the Rings.
Heroes or Villains? Heroes? (Good song by Bowie, too)
John Williams or Hans Zimmer? I had to Google who these people are, lmao. I can’t pick because I don’t really know a lot about them... probably shows my age.
Disneyland/Disney World or Six Flags? I’ve been to none of them :(
Forest or sea? Sea! Forests are kinda’ spooky.
Flying or reading minds? Reading minds.
Twin Peaks or Northern Exposure? Neither because IDK them.
Harry Potter or Lord of the Rings? I never got through the first Harry Potter movie and I’ve never read the books. These questions are so relatable for me.
Cake or Pie? CAKE. SO MUCH CAKE.
You are banished to a desert island, which Benedict Cumberbatch character would you choose to take with you? Um.... god, none. I’ve basically only watched one of his movies/shows.
Train or Cruise ship? I’ve been on more cruise ships than I have trains because we mainly drive everywhere, so I guess cruise ships. I’ve been on several around Europe.
Brian Cox or Neil deGrasse-Tyson? Brian Cox and his ridiculous grin.
Wizard of Oz or Alice in Wonderland? Neither again.
Fanfiction or fanart? FANFICTION, although I do wish there was more fanart for ships like Jeff/Annie.
The Hunger Games - Books or movies? Books.
Be able to see the future or travel into the past? Travel into the past so long as I can’t screw anything up. I’d just like to be able to revisit but not change anything.
Han Solo or Luke Skywalker? Han Solo, probably.
Lilacs or sunflowers? Sunflowers.
Spring or autumn? Spring! Mainly because in Italy/the Med, it’s the perfect weather before you die of heat in the summer.
Campfire or fireplace? Fireplace but I really would like to experience a proper campfire one day.
French fries or onion rings? Onion rings! Hmmm, dayum.
And a new addition...
Jeff Winger or Troy Barnes? Jeff Winger is for me.
