Hi folc4evernaday! Nice to meet you grin

Oh yes it's so annoying. I do it all the time and I usually find it in the end, the search on the archive is really good. I checked out When Friends Become Lovers. Great story though not the one I'm looking for huh

I can't really remember anything else. I don't think it was a recent story, and it was probably a long one. The disaster might not have been a fire but it was something where there were firefighters or police or something there after. It might have been the aftermath of a hostage situation for all I know. Wherever Lois's friend was from, they were male and they were both looking at him helping after it was mostly over, I think, when this conversation happened. She was thinking about it and must have said something to him later on because I'm pretty sure I remember him at least admitting how hard it could be. I don't think it was one where he talked to Dr. Friskin though I just don't know.
