I have a huge amount of emotions running through me after this chapter.

I would have never expected Nicco to be that honest or deep with Brooke, but he it seems, like everyone else, was someone else before the attacks. He sees more than any of us thought.

I love how Bill is present in this chapter like Laura has been present in the previous chapters.

I want Bill to want to rescue Brooke, I want Brooke to be happy, I want to believe that Bill knows what he is doing...but knowing our beloved Admiral so how I doubt it.

Oh the entire thing makes me sad - the situation, the fact that everyone is pretending, that there is very little hope. I want Bill to come back and hold Brooke.

All this of course means that the writing is beautiful. And we certainly got another interesting clue about Brooke's past. I thought she might have been a model but that doesn't seem to be it.

See you tomorrow! And thank you!!

Awwww!! Yay, it's great you're seeing Nicco a little more clearly now, and liking him more.

Everyone is pretending. So true. I can imagine it's easier sometimes, for all of them to do that.

I want Bill to want to rescue Brooke, I want Brooke to be happy, I want to believe that Bill knows what he is doing...but knowing our beloved Admiral so how I doubt it.

Again, I'm loving your insight on these characters. You're in their heads.

Thank *you* for reading and commenting. It's really wonderful to read what you have to say every day.

I'm thrilled that you're in Nicco and Brooke's corner. Our biggest fear was writing a story with original characters that nobody gave a shit about. I'm so happy you're as invested in them as we are. They're good people, just victims of horrible circumstance.

You'll learn a lot more about both of them as the story progresses.

Thank you for taking the time to leave such great feedback. It's so appreciated.
