I was really surprised when I found out that the short dialogues were from the past, that was a great twist!
I definetly love this story, because it's rare to actually write about Sam in an Asylum.
Great job!

I love Sam in asylum fics, but there are so few of them, which is one of the reasons I wanted to write this. Thank you so much for reading and commenting!

Nicely done! A really good last part, which ties all the previous parts together.

I've really enjoyed this story, thank you! :)

Thank you! I was worried the last part seemed a bit rushed, so I'm glad you liked it.

I've just finished through reading all five parts at once and I properly enjoyed this. Your voices are excellent, especially Sam as the unreliable narrator. Crazy Sam is one of my favourite things and you write excellent crazy Sam. The reveal that the session(s) were in fact from a month ago was really well played. &hearts this.

Thank you so much! I do love crazy!Sam, too. :)

YOU! Twisty evil mind! I KNEW IT!

Excellent, in fact I had to go back and re-read all the earlier chapters because my initial reaction was "Oh NO she didn't...." ...and you DID!

Brilliant set up, perfectly played out. The dialog with the therapist being his prior sessions post almost-but-not-quite suicide was a fantastic stroke. The whole begining, with Gene's opposition to the idea, was incredibly well balanced because it sounded simply like Gene unhappy with Sam's idea on the first read, and scared for Sam's sanity on the last read -- same words, same scene, entirely different mood and feel. OMG that is spooky! You have the magic fingers with the keyboard.

This was a clever little (for you!) fic that was very enjoyable. Crazy Sam is, actually, not one of my favorite versions of him, but you write him so humbly honest and broken that it is hard not to feel for him. *cuddles poor broken Sammy...well okay I'll cuddle any version of Sam I can get...*

I was wrong, though, you do not have a committed!Sam kink, you have a suicidal! ( ... )

Muahaha. Twisty, yes. Evil, probably.

I was worried when I was witing the first part that it would be too obvious what I was trying to do, so I'm very, very happy that I got it right (at least based on your reaction.)

I think I have a committed and suicidal Sam kink. (Though notice, I have never actually killed him. Yet.)

[Still reading Shadow Box! I've finished part 13 now. I'm going to catch up and write a nice long comment for you!)
