(I tried to reply to you here earlier, and on your fic, but my computer was acting up, ugh!)

Thank you so much, honey.

I'm glad I know is enough. I struggled with that after your suggestion, you know? Like I think I told you, yeah, she loves him then - but she doesn't know it, or at least won't admit it to herself yet. I honestly don't think that's something she'll ever say to him, except in extreme circumstances (Pickett, etc). But here, she knows he loves her, and I think that's what was most important to him.

Thanks for voting for the last line, btw. I was going to cut it; I really disliked it at first. But now I'm glad I kept it in, and I have you to thank for that.

Ah, your alternative timeline...You know, it killed me to kill Kate in this, even more so than in Elegy. (Although, hey, you can still just read it as a one-shot and ignore the fact that she dies later, eh?) I will write you happy Kate/Sawyer someday, okay? I promise.

Thank you so for your comments on Kate on the run. That's my favorite part to write, too, I think.

I also love how she stops to think several times that this is Sawyer's home and she's intruding and, at the end, it has become their home.
:) She would have come back if she could.

I do hope that Sawyer is used to having women in his house wearing his clothes and using his shower.
Oh, but I kind of hope he doesn't! I'm a little possessive over him now, and not just any woman should get to be in his house, wearing his clothes and using his shower (and his bed, and...) But I know what you mean. This guy breaks my heart.

Thank you so much. This really wouldn't have been written without you. Thanks for bearing with me, with the killing Kate and everything (I won't do that again - at least not for a long, long time - probably never, but never say never, right?). Your comments, throughout, meant so much. ::hugs::

I'm finally getting back online :P

I did promise! Oh, no, what have I done?! ;)

Ooh, and you say *I'm* cruel! Tsk, always taking a dark turn...Poor Sawyer.

Haha. You and me both, dear.

I'll try ;) I really hate doing that, you know.
