Wooooooowwww. *blinks* Dude. I mean seriously... D-U-D-E!

I loved this fic. The way you wrote Jo was just SO spot on... my heart broke for her, but it was just so heartbreakingly believable. The flashbacks were perfect, and at times nearly brought a tear to my eye. I think my favorite line was;
The fight when she leaves has even Bobby running scared -- I love the idea that tuff as boots Bobby would be frightened by the Harvelle women raging on. Hee Hee ( ... )

Gah, I've been trying to think of something constructive to say to your wonderful comment other than thank you so much but I keep getting stuck there, lol. So I'll just go with the thank you, a lot, this comment really meant a lot.

Thanks so much for writing and sharing! *huggles*

This is hopefully close to the Jo we get, I like her a little angsty and lost.

And thanks so much for commenting, it means a lot to me.

Such a beautiful, sad story. The narrative confused me at some parts, but that may be intentional. Looking forward for more from you! &hearts

Thanks for taking the time to comment, I really appreciate it.

Yeah the narrative still seems a little off to me too, I've been working on this one for a while and never quite seemed to get it right but figured this was as close as I'll get. Basically the italics is kind of past type stuff, like when she was a kid, teenager, the small bits from the show and the rest kind of goes over the years between BUABS and nowish and are the only bits in chronological order if that helps at all.

No worries, I think the non-linear quality makes it truer to how one remembers things. :) I still loved it.
