I'm really enjoying this fic so far. Love your descriptive writing and finally getting some emotional fallout from Veronica's actions. I hate to say it, but I doubt we would have ever gotten anything close to this on the show. RT wasn't very good at, you know, follow up. Everything probably would have been dry-erased by the start of the 4th season, if they got one. So this is very satisfying.
It's depressing, too, though (but in a good way). Even if they get through this, and get to the place they want to be, I can't imagine ever having a decent life with something like this always hanging over their heads. But I love Veronica in this. She feels more like the season one Veronica, back when she was my favorite character. The season three Veronica, from the show, probably would still be angry at the world and not so much herself for how things turned out. YMMV, but I still get the feeling Veronica ended the series not exactly insightful or remorseful, but rather...bitter(?) that the world operated the way it did in that the bad guys won while the good guys were punished.
