All sorrows can be borne if you put them into a story. Tell me a story.

Actually, I thought Jack made a good start at it in this week's episode. Refusal to tolerate any crap from Sawyer; demonstrating to him just how ugly it could get if other people started treating Sawyer by his own rules; forcing him to yield without playing into his psychodramas.
I sorta thought this, too. But I'm not sure that it did convince Sawyer of anything. For one thing, he took the case from Kate because he could. Despite Kate's pretty serious attempts to recover it, he refused to return it without explanation, because he could. Sawyer will always prey on those he feels weaker than himself. I don't think that is going to change very soon. He just fears the wrath of Jack/Sayid.
And, welcome, tavella!

Well not canonically, no, but this is transformative fiction.

Me neither. I think Sawyer took it, as you say, because he could, but that he gave it up because it wasn't that much fun anymore.
I'd also say that preying is a strong word. He's the sort of bully that does pig in the middle (is that the right name?) but no wedgies or swirlies. He's merely annoying.

pig in the middle
? That's not a term I'm familiar with. I woulda said he's the kind to wait until you're off in a corner by yourself, without hope of recourse, and then give you a wedgie. Nothing downright hurtful, like a serious bully giving you a bloody nose and stealing your lunch money. He's vaguely malicious with a side of cowardice.

I don't see him quite at the wedgie stage, and certainly not hitting or stealing.

Ah, in the midwest, the delightfully plebian named "keep away."
ION, I had a dream with you in it last night, ita. We went shopping. With a girl named Doula, who had very pretty cornrows that I wanted for myself. I have no idea what prompted this dream.

All is well that ends in pizza.
Now I'm earwormed with the Rutles singing "Piggy in the Middle."

Given the Lord of the Flies connotations, that can't be good.

Sure I went over to the Dark Side, but just to pick up a few things.

I always thought it was called "monkey in the middle"
