I really like this, esp. the first two parts and JJ's reaction : ) Any chance of you writing a sequel-like fic to this despite it being a prompt?

I'm so glad you do! Haha, yeah, the first is my favorite I think (and JJ's I already morphed into a 100 word drabble for my ficlets100 challenge, hah!). Hmmm...maybe, if I get the inspiration for a sequel I might, not ruling it out, haha!

Thank you so much for reading and commenting! Again, glad you liked it! :D

[lady529]

Well, if I see any inspiration sitting by the road, I'll send it your way : )

[antoinettemason]

i enjoyed this a lot! great work!

[took_skye]

Aww, thank you! I'm so glad you enjoyed it! :D

[ladybugg7]

This is so... good.
I agree I think a sequel would be Fantastic!!

[took_skye]

Thank you so much!

Haha, maybe...I wanna be sure it'll be good and not just a sequel for sequel's sake, you know? But certainly a possibility! :D

[ladybugg7]

Well there's no worries there.... if it's anything this... than you are Golden. No pressure or anything...haha.

[took_skye]

Hahaha! Yeah, no stress, haha! Well, a_blackpanther had a good idea of (re?)writing the stages all focusing on Hotch which might not be a bad idea.

My (and it seems others) favorite, the first stage, would be the same since it's already Hotch-centric and then I'd just pick up where that left off with Hotch. ...I'll play and see how it goes.

I was waiting for this fic. The five stages of grief...perfect choice. I love how you show the team dealing with it rather than Hotch. Because they have to get over it in order to help him get over it.

I'm glad you didn't make it too angsty, but definitely put a lot of feeling into it. Stage one and Stage four are probably the best.

Of course, now you have to write Hotch's 5 stages.

[took_skye]

Really? Wow, then I'm glad I wrote it, hahaha! ;-) Yeah, that's what I felt...that and they're a team, they're almost like a family, and so if one person gets hurt they're all going to feel it in some way.

Thank you! And, yeah, the first is my favorite too actually...and the fourth I actually cut down and made it a 100 word drabble for another challenge.

Haha! Maybe that'll be the sequel?? Of course the first stage is more Hotch's than Morgan's so I might have to keep that and then write the other four for Hotch too. ...That might work...We'll see. :D

Thanks again and I'm glad you enjoyed the story! :D

This fic was recced to me. Great story! I love all the character interactions and the quote at the end was very fitting. Would you mind if I recced this story?

[took_skye]

Recced? Is that recommended (note my poor knowledge of short hand speak, haha!)? Cause that's lovely of someone to do and, naturally, you can "recced" it to whomever you like! :D I'm thrilled that you enjoyed it, I wasn't sure if the quote at the end showed a good sum up or laziness but if you enjoyed it I think it shows a good sum up, haha! :D

'Recced? Is that recommended (note my poor knowledge of short hand speak, haha!)?'
Yep, that's what it means.

'I'm thrilled that you enjoyed it, I wasn't sure if the quote at the end showed a good sum up or laziness but if you enjoyed it I think it shows a good sum up, haha! :D'
I liked the quote because it reminds me of the quotes they put at the end of episodes.

[took_skye]

Oh! Well then how wonderful! Yes, please, recced away if you feel my work worthy! :D

Haha, good, then it worked as a sum up, like on the show, haha! Again, so glad you enjoyed my story! :D
