Yeah, I think I'm getting over it a little bit by thinking about all the ficcing potential -- and it's pretty clear that, after waiting a year, Neal found ways to contact both Peter and Mozzie (I'm guessing the playing card in the storage unit means that Mozzie knows too?) so quite possibly REUNION IN PARIS is in everyone's near future.
This is so totally not what I wanted, though. Still annoyed that it came so close to giving me everything I wanted and then snatched it away and gave me epic heartbreak instead.
But there's loads and loads of room to write fic in. And I agree that from here on out, it's possible to write nearly any sort of ending, right up to Neal deciding crime's not where it's at, fixing himself up with a new identity and moving back to New York as Neal Cafferay or whatnot.
