JJ has so much to offer, so it's nice to have his POV when he a little less defensive and see the vulnerable filling underneath the bitchy coating. Zach and Will...not all that surprising because Will is pretty forgiving and seems like the type that is more concerned about his own thing (mainly his family) than holding grudges, that and he's a horn dog.
I finally saw your last note about things slowing down, I can totally relate to non GA pursuits that demand their pound of flesh, so I'm extra double super grateful that you're fitting chapters in when you can.
