"I'm trying to acknowledge that you have given us a gift, and that it has cost you something, and that it will continue to cost you."

That's where I started crying, damnit. And now I have to go vote, so the rest will have to wait. Arg.

*passes handkerchiefs*

Hooray voting, though! :)

I second demotu. This fic is SO good, the emotions so powerful, that I had to stop during this chapter to compose myself. I'm not a stranger to crying, but I read so very much fic that it's not terribly often anymore that one has the power to reduce me to a sobbing wreck in my living room like this chapter did.

I've had a beer now, so I think I'm ready to continue, but oh jeez, the utter pain Jack and Ianto have had and will continue to have in their lives...sometimes it's just too much to bear thinking about. Kudos to you for making this come to life so vividly.

Thank you, and hooray beer!

When Indy started screaming, I started crying like no other story has ever made me cry. How did you write this? It would have killed me.

Which is to say, amazing work.

Thank you!

And I suppose it helped that I knew how it ended.

Thank you! Aftermaths and but then what are pretty much my favorite things to write.

I've been reading Jack/Ianto for just over a year now, and I think that's the second time I have ever cried at a fic.

Indy parted his fingers enough to let it drop and dangle--an intricately braided cord, strands of red and blue and grey all twisted together

It just hit me at that line and then I didn't really stop.

This is truly beautiful.

Thank you!
