Author's note: With thanks to egelantier for hand-holding and beta-reading as this story evolved. Any remaining mistakes are my own.

( Brendon was on the couch, Spencer whuffling softly next to him, half-watching <I>Family Guy</I> and half- reviewing his notes for the case they'd been handed that morning when he heard loud knocking on the front door. )

Well. I guess that's that, then, Jon Walker.

I'm still mulling over my reactions to the music. My initial response was hmmmmm, mainly because it was suddenly clear to me how much of TYV sound was his sound - both the parts that I liked and the parts that annoyed me. (Or, okay, was the Beatles sound, as filtered through Jon Walker. Y'all know what I mean.) I definitely do miss whatever leavening influence Ryan may have had, though.

As for the lyrics: mostly they just make me kind of sad, and even more curious about what happened. They're also, I don't know - confirmation? reverse context? - for assumptions I had that were generated by his tweets. Namely that TYV is well and truly done, and that the bonfire picture was a farewell picture (though the picture of the woman in it is still a puzzle). But I don't feel like there's any really new information.

Now to wait and see if this prompts Ryan into making any kind of official statement . . .
