very nicely done. I like how much Rodney is there for John and how John instinctively knows who to trust, even when he doesn't remember.

Thank you, sweets! The trust issue is all down to the art Crys made - down to working out what could have John so vulnerable, and where would he go from there. It was enormous fun to try and work that out from the starting point Crys gave me!

Oh, John. He's so vulnerable in that image. But even when he forgets everything but he remembers Rodney and "Yes, yes, never could do anything by halves could you" of course the idiot remembers the horribly painful things first. OH JOHN! *smishes him* Both story and art are just so so lovely. ♥

Thank you, sweets, so much!

Thank you! I'm so glad you enjoyed both.

Lovely. The drawing is just perfect - very John, so clearly hurting. The fic seemed to fit very well how I can imagine John being in this situation, and his confusion about just what Rodney was to him. The end was very sweet.

"Wow," John says, begrudgingly impressed. "You can talk."
"Yes, well, among my many talents."
Heh heheheheheh.

"She just wanted me to understand how completely I would set back your neurological recovery if I tried to give you a blow job right now."
Oh, poor John. He'll have to wait a few days for his blow job, I guess. ;)

Thank you sweets!! I'm so, so glad you enjoyed both pieces!

*beams* Thank you! Apparently I'm on an angsty roll this month, but Cate made it all better. ♥

Wow, excellent.

Julia, really need to get back to making worth-while comments somehow.

Thank you, sweets!

Thank you, sweets!

(And perhaps she didn't actually say what Rodney *said* she said, hmmm? :D )
