Oh god I think I'm going to cry. Oh Hotch. Oh. And Morgan. And the poor survivors, having to deal with the aftermath of thatM/i>. My heart is breaking for Jack. Damn, damn, damn...

Wow. That was powerful and heartwrenching. I'm not kidding about having tears in my eyes. Beautifully done (even though I hate you just a little bit right now). That is some emotional stuff.

Wow.

you killed Hotch. YOU KILLED HOTCH. AND MORGAN.
you evil, brilliant, magnificent bitch. You realize you have me sitting here in the middle of my office ready to burst into tears, right?

Already, he knows that this future doesn’t belong to him. He’d helped built it, but he isn’t going to live long enough to bring the world into a new age.

This is very Biblical. Like Moses looking over the hill into Canaan, while it's Joshua who has to lead them the rest of the way.
And OH HOTCH. That even in the middle of the zombie apocalypse, he's never forgotten Haley. That he's not scared for himself, but for his family. And that he's strong enough to do what he does.
And OH EMILY AND JACK. The hardest thing in this world is to live in it.

I'm pretty sure this is the first time I've been called a bitch about fan fiction *g*. I'm not really sure how to feel about that

oh dear. It was entirely intended as a compliment. *damn you, profane NJ public school lexicon* I transgendered "magnificent bastard"; you can be that instead, if you wish.

If Dawn had to be part of Buffy, at least they gave her that moment (and also "Conversations With Dead People" but I digress.) Oh, "The Gift". *sniff* That sense was here too, with the nanosecond of peace Hotch received after pulling the trigger.

I am very admiring of the way you're writing all these; it inspired me with the Dragon'Verse (which I need to get my butt in gear on.) Though you'll now have to put a pre-/post disclaimer on them... *g*

If this weren't so brilliantly written, I would hate you.

This is awful and gorgeous and heartbreaking.

You remember what I said forever ago about the possibility of R/P h/c in the future?

Yeah.

[indigocat]

Consider me shocked.
