Yup yup yup. I'll buy it. I keep sharing more of my thoughts, then backing off, but suffice to say I like this very much.

[ladyjanelly]

You keep backing off because I cover it later, or is there something I could make more accurate? Don't worry about hurting my feelings or anything. I are tough chick. I'd love to hear your musings.

Glad you're stil with it and I"m not poking that healer/patient squick. Yet, at least.

[realpestilence]

I don't know that this is "healer/patient", so much as it's...helping!fic. Similar, but just enough of a side-step that I think a bond formed that way could mature into a real relationship, whereas healer/patient smacks much more of exploitation or...*flounders*...well, kink. If you see what I mean? I guess they both could be, but-oh, what bugs me is the healer has *responsibilities* that are legally and morally more clear; a helper is just someone trying to be nice. Of course, Jared's not an official healer, like a nurse or doctor, but that's why I was getting the vibe. *figures it out

[ladyjanelly]

It is a very strange corner of h/c fic, isn't it? Jared's probably a nurse that's overstepping his boundaries and his boss signs as the one who did things like suturing Jensen's eyebrow. He is semi-accountable. The place he works at has blurred the boundaries until something like this can happen. If I pull it off alright.

Jared is still innocent in some ways. His little spark hasn't been stamped out by the daily grind of helping and failing.

Jensen's condition=Seeeecret. Next chapter's his POV and the reader should know as much as he knows when it's over.

Glad you're enjoying. I'm having a blast writing it.

I want to know what happened to Jensen to cause this drastic change in lifestyle. More Please

[ladyjanelly]

Next chapter: You'll know as much as Jensen does.

Glad you're enjoying.

I'm glad to see another part of this. I'm damn curious what happened to Jensen. Schizophrenia is a scary scary thing. Don't know if you're going to go that route or not. Just that it's something I find personally frightening. Poor Jen.

(And this is the second fic I've read where Jensen is schizophrenic (if he is in this fic) I wonder what it is about him..)

[ladyjanelly]

Oooh. What's the Schizophrenic Jen fic? Any ideas, or should I take it to storyfinders?

I used to run a schizophrenic character on an online roleplaying game thing. I couldn't write this with a watered-down, not-realistic version of the illness, but I couldn't do that to Jensen and Jared. It's just beyond the angst I wanted to get into.

Next chapter, Jensen's POV.

[epeeblade]

It's called "A Million Points of Light" and you can find it here: http://maddys-slash.livejournal.com/90978.html#cutid1

God, just thinking about the fic is going to start me crying again. (I highly rec that author, btw, she's amazing with the emotions behind her stories)

And I'm really looking forward to where you're going with this. Your fiction is so vivid and real.

[ladyjanelly]

Thanks for the link. Yeah, that's a completely different direction than I'm headed, so I'm not worried about looking too much alike now.

Maddys_slash is awesome. So stark and clean.

[fools_game]

And the plot thickens! this is really really good - you're tackling some very serious, real issues here, very gracefully but without flinching. You characterisation is wonderful - of course Jared is going to take in the stray - and your writing style is, as ever, amazing! Hope to see more!

[ladyjanelly]

It's scary, because it is such a realistic, serious issue. Such a delicate line to write on, between painfully real and lacking in substance. I'm glad it's working for you.

Heh. Jared's a big softie. He's got too much compassion for this work.

[jellicle]

You have to tell me more about this, by email, somehow.

Seriously.

You never cease to surprise me with how deep and well thought and developed your characters are.

And how's scar!verse and model!verse, btw?

[ladyjanelly]

I'm already working on chapter 3. Jensen POV. OMG.

Heh. Considering I'm posting before I've figured that all out most of the time, that's one hell of a compliment.

Scarverse, I actually opened the file and read the entire thing yesterday. I need to start writing again.

Modelverse, I dunno. I think I have to dump what I'd written since the last posted chapter and start over with that one. I sort of screwed myself into a dead end and what I had planned for that one just isn't gonna let itself be written.

[ladyjanelly]

Sent the e-mail. Lemme know what you think. :)
