Read-Along: BRIDGE

(Read-along reading schedule)

I can't be 100% certain, but I suspect that the fine residents in the house two doors down the road heard me scream when I realized that Logan's story, "Bridge", was written in verse. My favorite author writing in a style that I'd just recently realized I love? Clearly, I'd won the lottery.  

As it turns out, that's not my favorite part of the story.

Nope. Turns out, I like Logan a whole heck of a lot more than I thought I did. Which was a lot to begin with, really. See, we only get to see Logan through Aura's eyes in the Shade series. No doubt, Aura is in love with Logan, but as the reader, we also see the frustration and anger she experiences with Logan throughout the series. For me, those moments of frustration outweigh the giddy "OMG! I LOVE YOU SO MUCH!!" feelings that Aura has for Logan because of where they are in their relationship when we meet them. As such, it was easy for ME to feel frustrated with Logan throughout the series. (Random thought that occurred to me while writing: I wonder if I'd be a hardcore Logan girl if I'd had meet Aura and Logan while they were falling in love. *thinks about Zachary* Probably not, but STILL.  Thoughts to think about.)

Bottom line for me: Logan is all about Logan. OK, this is an over exaggeration. Logan is *mostly* about Logan. (Five words, folks: "Because she was worth it." *sigh*)  Which brings me to my point...

Turns out, I freaking love Logan Keeley. Hard. (Also, all the turning I'm doing in this post is making me dizzy. Someone please stop the room from spinning!) Sure, Logan is *mostly* about Logan but we get to see where he's coming from in "Bridge".  I now understand that his need to be the center of attention is used to mask his own fears and insecurities.  Through his story, the reader gets to see that LPK is so much more than he appears to be. Here's a guy who comes across as an egomaniac but his REAL downfall is that he cares too much about other people. How's that for irony?

And Mickey. *sigh* I think we could (and should) start a thorough discussion about Mickey Keeley some day. His journey in this story is as important as Logan's. It is in "Bridge" that I finally get a sense that Mickey is going to be ok. Probably never completely whole, but at a spot where he can start to move past Logan's death. (I can practically feel him glare at me for saying that. *shivers*) Let's talk about this in greater detail soon. It'll be like an extended read-along discussion time.

Now. Before we get to the part where you guys stop reading this post because it's too damn rambly, I'd like to ask each of you reading this post to click on over to Amazon right now and buy Bridge for your Shade series shrine. (I'm not the only one with of these, right?) If you already have it, you rock! Now, go buy it again and gift it to a friend that you'd like to introduce to the series. Even if you already own ENTHRALLED (the anthology in which "Bridge" was first published) you need the newly released ebook version because of ALL THE THINGS YOU GET.   We got to interview Logan & Mickey about some of the goings on in "Bridge" and Jeri included that interview in this ebook. (GUYS! We got to sit down with the Keeley Brothers! *does victory dance*)

Which leads me to my three part discussion question. What one question would you like to ask Logan about "Bridge"? What one question would you like to ask Mickey about "Bridge"? How about Krista--what would you like to ask her?

It's Here!

*cue giddy happy dance* 

Bridge is available! That's right, Logan's story (make sure you have tissues) is available. AND because Jeri always goes above and beyond, if you get Bridge you'll get more than just the story. She's included plenty of extras.

What kind of extras you ask? Well....there's

 **A joint interview with Mickey and Logan
-Lyrics to the song he wrote for Aura, “Forever”
**Actual images from Logan’s songwriting journal
-Deleted SHIFT scenes from Logan’s point of view, including a **never-seen-before epilogue!

**indicates material exclusive to this ebook

Make sure you stop over at Authorgraph and request an e-autograph for Bridge (it's free) while your at it. If you want to get her autograph for her other books they are available for request too.

Purchase Bridge at Amazon -- don't worry, if you don't have a Kindle you can download a Kindle reader on your phone or computer. It'll be worth it.

Synopsis: Logan is barely seventeen, and barely dead. To find eternal rest, the ghost rock star must make peace with his brother Mickey, before his guilt over Logan’s death drives him to suicide.

Krista sees ghosts everywhere, but never the one she needs most. A chance boardwalk encounter with Logan turns her Senior Week party into a rescue mission. Can her own grief give her the strength to save Mickey’s life?

Loaded with bonus material, the “Bridge” ebook is the perfect introduction to the young-adult Shade trilogy—a tale of ghosts, music, and everlasting love.

Read-Along: SHINE Chapter 33 - End *sniffle*

I'm not sure I've ever closed a book and felt as satisfied as I did after finishing SHINE and as the reigning Irish Princess *glares* (I swear I'm not bitter.) so nicely recaps in today's post, things are as they should be.

(See read-along reading schedule here.)

*waves* Hello fellow Team Kilt-ers! Can you believe we’re here at the end of this incredible story? (Well, except for Logan’s short story, “Bridge”; Zachary’s novella “Shattered”; and Martin’s as-yet-untitled story, all of which I just know you’re looking forward to just as much as I am!) I hope you’ve enjoyed this roller coaster of emotion that Jeri has taken us on with Shade, Shift, and Shine.

I guess before I get too much further into this, I should tell you a little bit about myself. I’m Judy and I currently live in Columbia, Missouri. My heart is still in Michigan, though. Or maybe Cape Cod. Or Scotland (even though I’ve never been there, I’m pretty sure it’ll capture my heart in so many ways). Or possibly on the road with those Scottish lads, Frightened Rabbit. (Seriously, if you ever have a chance to see them live, DO IT. I’ve seen them four times and I swear they’re better each time.) But I digress. I’m addicted to tea and books. And music. I’m a cat person and, as of last Thursday, I have a new kitty in my life. She’s a gray/white tabby and is the cuddliest cat I’ve ever owned. We are currently in negotiations for a name for her because I haven’t found one that means “she who lies down wherever she is (even if it’s on my face) and purrs her heart out*. Online I mainly hang out on Twitter (@shellseeker93).

I learned about the SHADE books because I was following Rachel Vincent on Twitter during Zach and Tod’s YA Crush Tourney match and saw her convos back and forth with Jeri. I read the snippets from SHINE that Jeri posted and knew I had to know more about this world.

I first met Jeri in person in October of 2011 at the Northwest Book Fest in Seattle, but there were like a million and one people there, and I was at the tail end of the line so it was more of a “drive-by” meeting. It wasn’t until May 2012 at Team Kilt Con 1.0 that I REALLY met her. Not only does she write incredible books, but she’s a fun and awesome person in real life, and I feel lucky to call her a friend.

Let’s see … what else? Oh yeah, I hold the title of Irish Princess for winning the SHADE Jeopardy game last year at Team Kilt Con.

But enough about me. Before I move on though, I want to give a HUGE thank you to Jeri for writing these incredible books, without which I would never have met all the amazing friends I’ve made through #TeamKilt! And to the fantastical peeps at Kilt & Keeley for hosting this read-along, giving us all a reason to re-read the books (not that we really needed a reason) as well as the hundreds of millions of other things they do for #TeamKilt! J 

Beware, this is NOT a spoiler-free zone.

I asked for this part of the read-along mostly because it has one of my favorite scenes in it: the wishing tree and the shoelace. But also because when I started to read SHINE the first time, Logan still had my heart. Jeri told me once that by the end of SHINE, Zach would possess my heart. She was right. These chapters contain some of my favorite Zach scenes.

What I’d forgotten, though, was that there’s a lot of scary, edge-of-your-seat action that takes place from the calm and peace of the fairy tree to the end.

• Aura being taken over by shades

“The shades were a powerful, painful presence, but they didn’t control me. I wasn’t a shade. I had a living body and soul, both of which were in tune with Zachary.”

•  Zach and Aura getting kidnapped and almost murdered by fanatical Children of the Sun cult members. I love Aura’s thoughts when Nuala calls on the power of the oak to give them strength:

“My anger surged. The strength of the oak is mine, you bastards. Zachary gave it to me when I had none of my own.”

           

Yeah! Take that you crazy people!

•  Escaping to Ireland

• The nightmare Zachary has in the hotel in Warrenpoint when Aura finally finds out what Zachary went through those eight weeks he was held at Area 3A.

      “‘Aura, I would’ve stayed there forever—I would’ve died—to keep you from that fate.’

I clutched my pillow so hard my fingers cramped. I wouldn’t have survived that kind of torture. He’d saved my life, and nearly lost his mind doing it.”

• Aura realizing that when she couldn’t stand to be around Zach because of the shades, she was making his worst fears come to life (this broke my heart so much).

“I thought of all the hours during the last two days when I wouldn’t let him touch me, for the sake of ghosts and shades, and how he’d tried so hard to hold on to me yesterday.

Without knowing it, I’d made him relive his torture.”

• Zachary getting shot

 But then there’re the good things that happen, too:

• The giving of the birthday presents. Seeing what they each got the other made me realize just how much Zach and Aura belong together.

• The scene in the hotel after Zachary and Aura escape from the crazy people.

“Now that the shades are gone from inside you, d’ye think we could end this not-touching-each-other shite? It’s frankly killing me, as sure as any knife.”

“With my hands in his grasp and his name on my lips, I could believe that nothing—not even time itself—could tear us apart.”

• Aura telling Zach that he’ll never be alone again after he tells her what happened in 3A.

“I couldn’t leave him without ripping my own soul in half.

I laid my head on the pillow next to him and wrapped my arms around his body, careful of the bandages. ‘I’ll stay.’

He let out a hard breath. ‘Aura, are you sure that’s what you want?’

‘I’ve never been so sure of anything.’ I pressed my forehead to his. ‘I promise you’ll never be alone again.’”

• Zachary picking up the gun and threatening Timian. (Ok, that was kind of scary too, but how awesome was Zach here? Standing up for the people he loves.)

• Òran Mór when Martin and all of Zach’s mates swoop in all James Bond-like and fight off the evil Nighthawk guys. *fist bump*

• Dylan and Megan are together!

• Aura finds out what Logan asked Zach to wish for him: “Let Aura find peace, but not the boring, heavenly kind of peace that I have now. Let her have the crazy, burning peace that comes from following her heart.” I love that while Aura was wishing that Zach could find peace, Logan – through Zach – was wishing the same thing for her.

• Aura discovers while waiting for her flight to Glasgow that she and Zachary really had ended the Shift, just not the way they’d expected.

• Aura and Zach, together in Glasgow, where they belong.

“Solstice is just a promise. But it’s a promise kept. Light always returns. Unlike people.

My mother was wrong. People do return. My dad did, if only for a while. Even though he hadn’t promised.

And I returned to Zachary. Because I promised, and because I wanted to.”

Discussion time:

What is your favorite scene from these last chapters of SHINE?

What do you think about how the Shift ended? 

Read-Along: SHINE Chapters 21-32

I was going to say something witty, and probably a little inappropriate, for this section of SHINE until Kim sent in her blog post for these tender chapters. I'm saying nothing else so we can get to the good part...

(See the read-along reading schedule here.)

Helllllooooooooo!!! It’s me à Kimberdee, with Jeri, from Team Kilt Con 2012. This pic makes me so happy!

I’m ecstatic to be joining Team Kilt for the Shade Read Along – Shine, Chapters 21 – 32.

*cues in donkey butt dance* (props to my girl Janette for creating)

I am an avid Team Kilt member and supporter of all things Kilt & Keeley and Jeri Smith-Ready ß in a non-stalkish way, maybe ;). I try to participate in as many Shade series activities as possible, such as this.

(Call me K Master C)

I was first introduced to Shade and Shift during the YA Crush Tourney in 2011, where my pal Brooke gave me a big ole’ whack for not having read them, and sent me the books. For three days my nose stayed buried in pages and I quickly anticipated Shine. I am forever grateful; for this series and author (that’s you Jeri) have brought me so many reading emotions, a story and characters that I will forever be fond of, and many friends—that’s YOU Team Kilt!

You can find me on Twitter @kimberdee, or Facebook Kimberly Miller-Callegan. Please check out my blog (and blogging partner Britney) at Living-Fictiously.blogspot.com

Okay, so let’s do this! Grab your hearts and Kleenex and let’s get this baby started for a wee little recap.

Aura, my dear. You are no one to fear

I know you thought that, your senior year.

Your head is swimming, in so much misery.

Logan is gone and you’re missing and worried about Zachary.

Zach, Zach… Zachary is back

And surprises his cheeky monkey with a video chat.

Aura listens as Zachary reads.

Together, they will decipher a discovery.

Becca Goldman, the girl we love to hate.

She makes it difficult for us not to discriminate.

That’s okay, Aura has the last word,

And Becca’s speech is left unheard.

The magic number is three.

All becomes a reality.

Aura and Zachary suffer some jealousy,

But they only want each other, officially.

Aura is violet, Zachary is red.

When they kiss, they become opposites instead.

Zachary is so full of pain.

At this time he isn’t strong enough to explain.

Aura talks baseball in a heap,

And lulls Zachary to finally sleep.

The fall equinox is here.

Aura’s head spins as the shades grew near.

Did it work? We shall see.

Where would their ghosts be?

Hello Martin, Zachary’s best mate.

He’s the next sweetest thing to chocolate.

Betcha his eyebrows wag

Each time Aura calls someone a bawbag.

Logan would’ve been eighteen.

But he will forever be seventeen.

The DMP makes us want to spit.

Their whole meaning is utter bullshit.

Aura prepares for Ireland

And will soon be in Zachary’s arms again.

Yellow for friendship, red for love.

Aura and Zachary’s embrace is what Team Kilt dreams of.

A wish and a seal of love at the B&B

Kissing and touching with such beautiful and longing ferocity

A setting so serene,

A lovely force of gravity.

Mo anam caraid (mo An-am CAR-idge),

Soulmates; A meaningful word abridged.

Today is Aura’s birthday.

Zachary and a ghost have a say.

Newgrange is where they’ll be

To see if they can end the shift and complete their destiny.

Team Kilt extends their gratitude to you, Jeri.

For writing a mystical story filled with tragedy and ultimately, glee.

*****

Thank you Kilt & Keeley for hosting the Shade Read Along! I’ll leave you wonderful peeps with a few questions for discussion. But don’t limit the discussion to just those questions. I’d love to read your thoughts as a whole.  

I’ll be seeing some of you for RT 2013 and Team Kilt Con 2013!!!

Did you think Aura handled herself appropriately at Tammi Teller’s funeral?

~~~Becca sure does know how to press some buttons. Becca deserved to be called out. Aura must have had lots of strength to stay grounded.

If you were Aura, would you have been strong enough to turn off your computer after Zachary fell asleep?

~~~ I would like to think I would. Sometimes, curiosity wins you over. I’d watch to gain knowledge, to understand his pain… not to disrespect him. But then I’d have to tell him I did it. Because I’m an honest person. And likely, I would lose his trust, and that would be so terrible. So, I’d have to fight myself a lot, and hope my heart would win over my curiosity.

What did you think of Martin?

~~~ I clicked with Martin right off the back. I adored his eccentricity and spunk. Most important, I felt the bond he had with Zach.

While Chapter 21 gave us the final revelations about the shift and shine, my favorite chapters were chapters 26 and 29  – ‘Wherever Logan was now, he was at peace.’  *Clutches chest* It was so important for Aura to know that, to feel that, and for the Keeley’s and us readers too—as well as Logan to accomplish it.  And I mean come on!!! Why wouldn’t I choose chapter 29. Jeri wrote the most beautiful, tasteful love scene for two young people who very much loved each other.

Read-Along: SHINE Chapters 12 - 20

This is one of the toughest sections of SHINE for me to read nowadays. This wasn't always true. My first reads of SHINE had me bawling at those heartwarming/heartwrenching Logan scenes. Now that I've gained an understanding of what Zachary endured while at 3A, well. My heart bleeds and my stomach clinches at the mere thought of those times. The brief reunion scene between Aura and Zach that Mel mentions in this post hurts me to my soul. GAH. ALL THESE FEELS! (Read-Along reading schedule here.)

Greetings, Team Kilt lovelies! Mel here, ready to talk all about chapters 12-20 of Shine. Can you believe we’re almost done with the trilogy? It never gets old, reading these amazing books. Everybody having a blast? Of course we are. We’re Team Kilt! Thanks go to the ever-fabulous peeps at Kilt and Keeley for hosting this wonderful event. Thanks also to author extraordinaire, Jeri Smith-Ready, for writing such an amazing, imaginative, inspiring, kick butt series... and bringing us all together!

Before I jump into the discussion, I suppose I should tell you a little about myself, aye? First of all, my first name is Melissa, but I’ve never liked it so I go by pretty much any nickname except Missy (like Mo, Litza, Lissie, Lissa, Mel, etc). Missy makes me feel like I’m a toddler. I currently reside in The Surface of the Sun, AZ (aka Phoenix). I work at an amazing used book and entertainment store with some of the most fun people in the world. I recently took over the kids/teen book department, which is so much fun and couldn’t be more perfect for me. I love my job! Now if only it was in Washington instead of Arizona. I can’t wait to escape back to my beautiful Pacific Northwest and the trees and rain and rivers with water in them! Anywhoozle... ahem. I can be found figuring out this blogging thing at She Dreams in Fiction and hanging out on Twitter (@litzalou). I love getting lost in books, devouring music and spoiling my adorable Shetland sheepdog, Maisie. Um, what else...? Guess I’ll jump into my chapters!

Here are some things that went down in chapters 12-20 (it is NOT spoiler free):

•  Dylan comes up with an idea to find and check out 3A, where Zach is being held by the jerkfaces (sniff sniff)... he also calls Zach "Captain Patience," which I love. This should be a thing. 

•  Aura jams out to Frightened Rabbit (heck yes!) whilst missing and worrying about Zach (sadness).

Here’s what I’m going to assume is the 3 track EP... it’s the one I have, anyway:

Here’s my favorite Frightened Rabbit song as well, just because I can:

• Aura researches one of her father’s colleagues, Daniel McClellan, and his academic journals on megaliths and cairns and how they relate to the solstice and equinox. She discovers she and Zach were born on a "double borderland" of night/day and autumn/winter. Whoa. Super powers, indeed. 

• Simon suggests the DMP may very well have been behind the incident with flight 346. WHAT?! 

• By the way, chapter 14 mentions my birthday in the first few words... just sayin’... hee hee.

• Dylan dubs their recon adventure Operation Scot Free. Love it.

• Siobhan and Connor announce they’re amicably breaking up... 

• While Aura and Dylan are bonding over mourning for Logan, Nana Keeley shows up. She decides that if Logan can pass on, she can too. Before she goes, she tells them the DMP beasties were after her, trying to lock her in a box! Evil! Mickey gets pissed off and finally gets on board with the mission.

“Let’s go destroy them”

• Operation Scot Free is on the move. They barely avoid the electric/invisible fence and getting caught. Whew! Aura sends photos of 3A area to Simon. Simon lectures Aura about investigating and how dangerous it is.

• Megan breaks up with Mickey on the ride back home. GASP! 

• Aura comes to the conclusion that the only reason she hasn't been "taken out" yet is because SecuriLab has an interest in keeping her alive. They're making a profit from the shift, whereas the DMP wants to end it. She wonders if she were to die, would the shift end? This leads her to believe that that's why SecuriLab is keeping her alive. 

• Nicola takes Aura to an Orioles game and they overhear two guys talking about Nighthawk and their possible connection to the flight 346 tragedy. 

• Aura writes up all she’s learned and deducted about the DMP and SecuriLab and gives that information to Simon to see if it'll help get Zachary out of their clutches...dun dun dun! 

• Aura has a horrible nightmare (shivers) and Gina wakes her up to deliver some news... Zach is being released! Happy dance!

• Aura and Zach get to see one another, but only briefly and they can’t even hug. Zach is clearly thinner and shadowed and nervous. WAIL!

• Zach finally makes it home to Glasgow and has a chat with Aura. Aura tells him she’s been divulging information about the DMP to MI-X to find leverage to free him from A3. He says he's not worth it, but we all know he so is. 

 Lots of crying.

Discussion question time! These questions are by no means mandatory. Feel free to answer any or none of them. I just basically want to see what you guys thought of these chapters! 

1. What did you think about Simon suggesting the DMP was responsible for the flight 346 disaster? Were you thinking the same thing, too? 
2. Two more couples bite the dust in these chapters: Mickey/Megan and Siobhan/Connor. How sad are you that they're no more?! Do you think they'll be able to stay apart?
3. What do you think about Aura's idea about SecuriLab keeping her alive, just in case her death were to end the shift?
4. What do you think of Nicola after the Orioles game?
5. How freakin' relieved are you that Zach is finally home?!

Read-Along: SHINE Chapters 1 - 11

I want to get on a plane (not flight 346) and squeeze Lis tight after reading this post!  She brings home a point that I wish every person who has not yet read SHINE for fear of missing Logan would understand.  Logan may be gone, but he's not gone. (HA! How's THAT for clarifying in a non spoilery way?) Anyway. This is a GREAT post from a huge Logan fan who hesitated to read SHINE and is so glad she did in the end. So there. (Read-Along schedule here.)

Hi there! This is Lis Carcamo, from the Spanish Fan Site of the ShadeTrilogy. I also run the book blog The Reader Lines.

I was introduced to Shade when my friends from my favorite Facebook book “club” started to talk about how much they cried during Shift. I asked them about that book, and they recommended it and Shade. To be honest, I just wanted to read Shade because I love books that make me cry I’m that insane! So, when a dear friend sent me a gift card, to buy the two ebook copies because shipping was too expensive, I didn’t hesitate and the day after, I started with Shade. I didn’t even read the summary. I just wanted to know about that famous Zach from the YA Crush Tourney.

My biggest surprise was that I FELL FOR ANOTHER BOY.

That damn Logan Keeley stole my heart the first time I saw him or read him. (I even wrote a song for him, but I’m still too shy to show it!)

Then, I started to stalk follow Jeri, Kilt & Keeley, and the Shade Boys on Twitter… And then I started to ask for Shade from some Spanish publishers. That’s why I created the blog, to spread the word about Shade and make the publishers know that we want Shade in Spanish. I just can’t help thinking that Spanish readers have the right to read such awesome books.

If you want to help us you can follow us on the blog, Twitter or Facebook (that one created by other awesome ladies).

Now, the Chapters Recap.

First, I want to show you my copy of Shine. I thought it will be cool to share all the notes I wrote there. Funny because I was one of those girls that didn’t want to read Shine because Logan won’t be there. And I ended up loving it and writing notes at every chapter.

CH. 1

Aura’s still in the cemetery after Logan passed for good, trying to contact Zach when Megan calls her and her stupid phone plays Make this go on Forever, and she thinks of Logan,  and I cry a little, and she tells her that Flight 346 went down… and it was Zachary flight! *insert scream*

Q: Did you play any song in your mind when you read that chapter?

Q: Did you really think Zach was dead?

CH. 2

Dylan also calls Aura and helps her to calm down, she checks the red phone and realizes Zach wasn’t in the plane! Dylan is so cool!

CH. 3

Where the hell is Zachary??? Oh, wait… un momento… It seems that Logan saved Zachary’s life.

CH. 4

Aura finally tells Gina the truth about the concert and what happened to Logan there. Then Aura remembers when she and Zach were in the airport judging people by their shoes *how cute!*

Q: Have you done that?

CH. 5

They discovered that what happened to Flight 346 was a terrorist attack… planned by a GHOST!

And Aura goes to her interrogation where Nicola asks her if she wants to join the DMP.

CH. 6

Aura is in her interrogation with Agent Ritter from the DMP. They talk about Logan and what happened before and after the concert. I wow, because I never thought I will see Logan’s name so many times in a book without him.  She discovers that Zach is under investigation because someone saw him talking to Logan in the airport. And the Moores are sent back to home without her son. *raise your hand if you wanted to kill someone*

Creepy Quote

CH. 7

Aura meets Simon, that weird guy from the MI-X, who’s trying to help Zachary.

Funniest Quote Ever!

CH. 8

Now, Aura’s on Farmer Frank’s wheat field, watching the stars and thinking about Zach, remembering him and trying to discover how to save him… Awwww

                                                                        And then, she has an idea about where to start.

Did she really say “juicy” Sorry but LOL!

Ch. 9

You know, since I am Team Logan, and this is a book for Zach lovers (don’t get me wrong I love him, too) I found way too funny this chapter, because the one ghost that could help Zachary, the girl who saw him talking to Logan, is a fervent Logan’s fan, and seems to hate Aura because she thinks Aura didn’t appreciate Logan awesomeness.

Groupie alert!

Wait...this IS the funniest quote ever!

CH. 10

Aura is spying on Gina things, searching for info about her dad. But she just realizes that it is worse to know him, if she can’t really have it. Then Gina comes back with news about Zachary.

They’re taking him to Area 3A.

What the f...!

CH. 11

Aura meets Nicola; she is really nice, though she works with the DMP. This is the first time Aura thinks about SecuriLab.

Q: Did it call your attention?

This whole thing about Zach's arrest seems even weirder at this point.

Just after the meeting, Dylan calls Aura and tells her that he NEEDS to see her….

 Q: Why did you think Dylan needed to talk to her?
