I know! There should be at least one world out there where Charlie didn't pick up that gun.

Aw, this was so sweet. I've really been wanting to read a fic that explores the Continuum alt timeline, and you did it so well. The thoughts about "what might have been" to them were heartbreaking.

Beautiful job. :)

It was a lovely prompt, so right back at you! Dare I admit I had it written the day after I took the prompt and have shown remarkable restraint in not going back and fiddling with it?

::laughs:: That is admirable restraint! And I'm so pleased that you were so inspired that you wrote pretty much as soon as you grabbed. That's great. :-)

Oh, beautiful! I like the 'slice of life' take on the prompt and how you worked in the difference between this Jack's life and our Jack's life.

I kind of looked at this as if it were a typical day in the American family. Dinner, laundry, homework, bickering kids. Glad you liked!

Oh wow. It's sweet because Jack has his family and is happy...but man, that's heartbreaking too y'know?

And Jack's contemplating what might have been...man I love Continuum fic!! Lol. Good job!

I found that part of Continuum to be somewhat bittersweet. This Jack still had his Charlie while our Jack...

Yeah absolutely. Rememeber that sound Sam makes in Into the Fire when they tell her the rest of the team are dead? I swear that's the sound I made the first time I heard Jack saying Charlie was fine. :( *sniffles* It's good for him, but Gah! the rest of the team then have to take that away from him to fix things...
