ohh! that is fantastic! :) thank you so much darling!

I really adore how Sayer, except for holding his hand, stays in Jack's peripheral vision only. it works so much as an image for me, he's there with Jack to calm him but he's visibly not at the same time.

you also have broken!jack's voice so well, and that ending gives hope for him.

YAY! that was suck a great twist on a very weird prompt (sorry about that) I am curious what Widmore scientists did to him :)

Sawyer squeezed his hand. "I'm here now," he whispered. "That's what counts."

Creepy but sweet at the same time. I loved how Sawyer kept Jack calm and focused with his voice and touch. Do you have any plans to continue? I love all the cans of worms you opened here with evil scientists and Sawyer's warning and plea to come back.

Oh, I love how your brain works. That was a great way to start from that picture indeed! I loved it. It's definitely one of the most intriguing concepts I read lately. Your Jack voice is absolutely spot on and well..

the media had taken a twisted interest in his car-crashing life and he was sure that an embarrassing number of column inches had already been devoted to the state of his facial hair. Ridiculous, really.

I laughed for five minutes at this one. Now that was just pure and utter brilliancy. I loved how Sawyer felt here, both real and unreal, and when he's holding Jack's hand? That was a great touch. The ending also felt just right (even if I need to echo the comment before mine.. any plans on part 2 maybe? ;) ) and well, you do great with this pairing really. ♥

Oooh I liked this!

Hmmm, they didn't implant a tracking device did they? Hehe, that would be my guess anyway.

Score! I was right! *Is stupidly proud of that fact.*

The second reason makes a lot of sense too. O.o I can totally see Widmore's evil scientists doing that sort of testing.

oooh wow!
I love how this felt apocalyptic at first and then it turned somewhat hopeful.
Also, I love that Jack keeps saying "I'm sorry" even if he is not sorry at all - that's something I can see him doing.
And finally, I love that Sawyer is there to comfort him. :)
well done!
