368:Appointment

Author Notes
Initially, I was considering having Rain’s first appointment still be a long ways away. I changed it later to that particular date (which is only like a week away canonically) when I realized she was looking into therapy around the same time I was (albeit, not the same year). January 10th, 2012 was MY first therapy appointment, so I thought it might be fun if hers was January 10th, 2013. This decision is purely based around sentimentality, but as you might imagine, I really like it. ^_^

Speaking of changes, these pages represent a change in time frame. Initially, I was going to have Jessica call Fara at work to name the date of the appointment (followed by Fara’s heartfelt “thank you and I owe you” line). I like this better though. It’s sort of a weird way to close the chapter, but I think it’s fairly sweet. Not to mention, I liked the idea of hanging this date in the air until the end of the chapter.

Also, just as a reminder, there will be a two week hiatus before we jump into Chapter 16. I’m just as bummed about this as you are. However, I’m behind on a lot of things, so let’s just say this hiatus will be no vacation for me. Chapter 16 will begin on Wednesday, July 17th regardless of everything else, so let’s hope it’s a productive couple of weeks.
