Ah! I love how you tweaked it. It has such a stumbling rhythm to it, like Jack on his last legs. Really wonderful.

[verasteine]

"Stumbling rhythm"? Ooh, I like hearing that! I'm glad you liked the changes, I was wracking my brain last night how to slip them in without losing the thread. It took me hours, but it appears worth it!

This is brilliant.

Thank you!

Oh poor Jack - you can really feel his despair, and his hopelessness and at the end the feeling that as strong as he is he's going to be defeated. So powerful!

[verasteine]

Thank you! I'm considering a sequel, but I'm not sure yet... Would you like one? Or is this finished by itself?

*points to thinking icon* see that's really hard. I really think it's brilliant the way it is - but then there's that "I have to have a happy ending" part of me that wants Jack to be saved and realize he does have hope and he's got his team to live for :)

Food for thought. I will dwell on it. I'm working on a "new year's resolution" type fic-to-write-list anyway. This one might make the cut...

Thinking icon is really good!

Very nice.

[verasteine]

Thank you!

Very beautiful. Reads like his state of mind most definitely would.

Thanks, that's lovely to hear!
