Just seeing the title makes my heart ache, that's one of the best titles for a G/C fic, for a G/C relationship, and this fic? Beautiful and emotional, thank you. ♥

Awwww, thanks so much babe! Glad you liked it. Anytime I address the G/S thing I always get a little nervous, lol, so I'm glad you think this one turned out okay :D

Hee! "Delicate" Cath? That's by _impress_me. She always makes GORGEOUS Cath icons.

And if it makes you feel any better, I didn't want to write nice GSRness, hehehe. But I felt it had to be done ;D

I have to be honest...this had just a little bit too much GSRness in it for my taste. However, I still really liked it. I loved this look into Grissom's head. And the way he described his love for Catherine was just...breathtaking. Thanks for this; it was beautiful!

Hey, thanks! Glad you ended up enjoying it. Sorry to hear you thought there was too much GSR; I thought I had been careful to emphasize the point enough times that Grissom loves Sara in a platonic way, but... to each their own, I suppose. :)

Grillows for the win, always. :D

You actually did a great job of that; that's why I ended up liking it as much as I did. :) I guess my comment wasn't really clear; I just meant there was too much Grissom/Sara interaction, not necessarily romance. True, Grissom professing his love, even though platonic, was a bit more than I would have liked, but I love that you actually addressed the issue instead of ignoring it, like a lot of authors would.

Long live GCR! :) (And I really like your icon, by the way.)

Oh, well thank you! I must've misconstrued the comment too, hehehe. I would've rather NOT done any G/S interaction, but I felt it had to be done; almost to ease my bitterness over the whole thing I had to get out MY interpretation of it before I could move on. And now look at me! I'm... still... well, bitter. Heh. But the fic helped a bit!!!

And isn't that icon just so pretty? It's by 2ndcommandlove, and it's actually THE icon that persuaded me to give in and watch the season 7 finale of CSI -- just to catch that G/C moment. It was totally worth it. ;D

Another great fic Caroline. I love the title, and the sentiment behind it. It really is about time Gil got a clue :-)

Happy birthday! :-)

Aww, thank you so much, Jac! Glad you liked it, despite the slight G/Sness :D

And thanks for the b-day wishes!! ♥

Wow! Thank you so, so much! That is so sweet of you to say. And I agree, in a lot of Grillows fics, he is very two-dimensional. I've always thought he was so multi-faceted and enigmatic, I love writing him.

I'm sure I'll end up doing more Grillows fics. As against the premise of the show as I am now because of the G/S... Grissom/Catherine is still one of my truest loves, hehehe. I just can't seem to let go of them ;)

Thanks again, so much!

Awww, thanks Anne! Glad to know you've got faith in me ;) I can't betray my beloved G/C, BUT I had to address the Sara stuff too. Glad you liked it.

Also? Cranky Cath is SOOO much fun to write. Hehe, our lovely little fireball :D

Thanks again!
