Based on the current episode (11x08) and the conversations and the ending scene, what are your top 3 theories about how it will end for Hailey?

From the start of the season, the possibility of Hailey leaving Chicago has been pretty high for me. 11x08 definitely made it seem like that’s the direction they’re going, so I’m thinking whatever route they choose will end with her leaving the city. For a minute I thought that this new detective was setting up a possible transfer to svu storyline, but after these past two eps I’m thinking it’s more of a setup and trial run for Jo to transfer to intelligence. These theories aren’t in any particular order because I can’t quite reconcile what I want to happen with what I think will happen, so these are just a jumble of both. I could also see some aspects of these theories overlapping.

1. Job Offer

The serial killer storyline is bound to factor into her exit. Whether it’s in a good way or a bad way is to be seen. A good way that I can see it contributing to her exit is through catching him or solving the case in some big brain way. Maybe she gets recognition for this and gets pursued for a job offer. Maybe the FBI decides to headhunt her again or maybe some other prestigious opportunity comes her way. We’ve seen that she’s struggling to find a way to move forward, and I think she would see a job offer as the best way to get a fresh start.

2. Resignation

The bad way I can see the storyline contributing to her exit is her reaching a breaking point after Voight goes off the rails. A Jay-esque style exit, she would realize she doesn’t want to deal with the gray area anymore and resign. Interviews thus far have alluded to this case bringing back the “old Voight.” With this killer being so slippery and Voight developing that bond with Noah, I think he’s going to start crossing lots of lines very soon. Hailey’s going to get dragged into it somehow and be forced to fall in line with his questionable tactics. Either she won’t fall in line or she will but at a cost, and it’ll end with her resigning and leaving the city for a new start.

3. Soul Search

This one is ultimately #upsteadforever propaganda. Hailey has been in limbo all season. We know that she’s not dealing with losing Jay, and we also know that the d word was not the closure she thought it would be. Something in the case or maybe a conversation with Jo makes her realize that she can’t keep living on autopilot. She’s forced to finally confront her feelings about everything and it makes her realize that the closure she thought she needed was not closure at all. In an effort to finally confront those things, she reconnects with Jay. Maybe via phone, maybe he comes back, or maybe she decides to go see him. Ultimately, she realizes that she has no purpose in Chicago without Jay, so she leaves the city to go and figure out what her next chapter will look like.

Hailey sleeps with a pillow over the duvet beside her to fill the space Jay used to occupy and that makes me sad

Hi! I won’t lie, I’ve had to go back and reread chapters, but I’ve loved it because your writing is so, so good. I don’t find rereading the story a pain AT ALL. It’s actually such a treat. Thank you for sharing your time and talent with us. Looking forward to reading the rest whenever you publish it 🫶

This is so beyond sweet and def makes me feel better, so THANK YOU🤍🤍 facing the personal pressure and frustration of writer’s block hasn’t been easy. The self-projected idea that readers might not want to stick around for my lack of consistency or whatever other reason has been a pestering thought throughout, which has only added to that block. Your validation puts a lot into perspective for me, so thank you for taking the time to send this. It means a ton, and I really appreciate your kindness, anon <3

do you plan to continue It takes one to know one? It’s a great fic like all your others I’ve loved reading it.

Hi!! First of all, apologies for taking a few days to respond. And thank you for your kind words🫶🏼

I do plan to continue it!! Life has been hectic, so I haven’t been able to spend as much time *trying* to write as I would like. This story has a lot of moving pieces and things that need to be touched on/developed throughout, and I haven’t wanted to rush things just for the sake of putting a chapter out. All of that to say is, I decided my plan is to bank a few chapters (maybe even the rest of the story depending on my progress) before I start posting again. My apologies for this extended hiatus, but I recognize that many readers have had to go back and reread before reading new updates and I don’t love making readers do that. Ultimately, I’d feel much better being able to post on a more consistent basis to avoid that moving forward. I’ll try to update when I have a better idea of when it will resume, but for now I guess it could be considered on pause. Again, I apologize, but I hope you understand !
