Oh this just killed me. In the best way. Loved it, it was so perfect and real and them and a giant yes to all of it. The three different snapshots of the different stages was great, they blend easily together. And the end made me smile so big! Great job!

Oh wow...this is stunning. Just, really amazing. I love what you did with Sawyer here. Of course there must have been some serious growing pains, and I'm sure they looked just like this. And the end was so satisfying and beautiful. I love this so much...*adds to memories*

Sawyer saying he did a lot of growing up made me happy, because I've been wanting that for him for a long time. And I love that he did it because he found a woman worth doing it for.

I'm so glad you liked this, thank you. :)

How wonderful to see them like this, somewhere in between who they became and who they were before. I love the idea that Sawyer didn't just magically learn how to be a boyfriend to Juliet, that they've struggled all the way to finding this peace. It makes it more real, gives us the thing the writers didn't when they decided to skip three years of this relationship. A perfect snapshot into their relationship. Thank you so much!

I feel like, for where they were both at before they were together, they had to do a lot of adjusting to get to the point where they could really be good to and for each other. Sawyer saying he did a lot of growing up made me happy, because I love the idea that wanting to be with Juliet made him become a better man.

I'm glad you liked this, thank you so much. :)
