Er... you know, before you post, it might be a good idea to fill in some of the blanks, such as [San Francisco Hospital] or [random half-sibling] before posting.

Other than that, it was a really good fic. And it's nice to see Kirk not being injured because of his own stupidity for once. :)

Yeah, I fixed that a moment ago, thanks. I'd forgotten I put those there as memos to self. It's been awhile since my beta went through this. So, I'm sorry.

Thanks so much!

Thank you! And now I feel a bit guilty for pointing those out. Really, the fic is great, but things like that often throw the reader out of the storyline. I'm glad you caught it quickly. :)

[gelsey]

No, it's fine--I don't mind. I kinda thumped myself upside the head when I saw. Stupid me! Thanks for the pointer, though.

Great fic, thanks.

[gelsey]

Thank you!

I really like this! A very heart-warming short story and very well-written! I adore Bones/Kirk friendship stories, and this one even included h/c - perfect! :)

Don't really think there'd still be bookstores in this future, maybe rather an antique shop or something, but still, the House biography was a really unexpected and funny surprise, I cracked up with laughter! :D

[gelsey]

*gasp* What do you mean, no bookstores in the future!!! You blasphemer! *giggles*

I'm glad you enjoyed it. Thanks so much!

Ha! I'm pretty sure House has to be McCoy's personal hero.

Nice McCoy voice. I enjoyed this.

[gelsey]

Hell yeah, he would be ;)

Thanks so much! Glad I got his voice down.
