Hi! Long time no see. Sorry about that, senior year of college is all I've got for you. Now this in reference to tonight's episode and what will be the result of it. I'm not sure how i feel about it but I had to get it out of my head.

I don't own bones just in case you forgot.

Momentum Deferred

Momentum travels in one direction. In a straight line from the point it was pushed from traveling in one direction endlessly. Until something knocks it off course. A coma, amnesia, someone pushing too hard, panic, a year apart, a girlfriend. It upsets the track of the momentum and throws it off balance.

But momentum can only be deferred for so long before it comes crashing back into line. All it takes is for that momentum to resume its course is one gunshot to ring out, the bullet to miss its target and take out an unintended victim.

The two objects are instead set back on course, but the speed has changed and the collision occurs suddenly. Instead of being a gentle collision where everything just melds together in the typical manner that one has come to expect The collision is massive, almost violent and completely out of the blue.

She dissolves into tears that the mere thought that it could have been him and cannot even find the words to tell him. But some how he knows as he grips her shaking frame to his body assuring himself that she is still there. That she's ok and he's never going to lose her.

It's not the collision that they thought they we're going to have. It's not the collision that any of them expected to happen. But he holds her to him only aware of how small she feels next to him and that she's still crying but that there's nothing he can do to help her right now besides hold her.

She clings to him in a way that she'd always promised herself she would never do. She's never needed a person let alone a man to be there for her. The thought only makes her body shake harder and she grips his t-shirt a little tighter clinging to him. But he's become the exception to every rule she's ever laid out, ever rule she's ever taken to be true.

The problem with deferring momentum is that when it does come crashing back into line it has a rather different outcome than what would have originally happened. Instead, it sends out violent aftershocks at unexpected times.

So now, the story becomes about surviving the aftershocks. Some are violent and test not only the core of what everyone believed was possible but has challenged everyone's assertion that it would be perfect.

The good thing about aftershocks is that they are never as violent as the original collision. So if they survived that first collision then they will survive ones that come after.

Well what did you think? Please let me know just no spoilers please I can't watch tonights episode until tomorrow because of my Senior Gala.

In an unrelated note congratulations to everyone in the class of 2011.
