YOU!

YOU... just made my weekend. The emotions, the angst, the beauty combine to form another segment that I'm going to have to keep rereading as I wait for the next part.

[laughter_now]

*bows*
I live to serve, and if I could brighten up your day a little, my job is done. Glad you enjoyed it, thanks so much.

Well Bones you have a lot to think about now that you know why Jim did what he did. Jim trust you with his heart. I hope you can find within yourself to forgive Jim. Looking forward to the next chapter to see what happens next.

He does have a lot to think about, that's right. He might just need a nudge in the right direction to see what really matters about this, though. Right now he's still a little hung up about something.
Glad you liked it, thanks.

Oh, boys. My heart aches for both of them. I want to be angry with Jim, but I just can't be, since he's so in love, and he's finally starting to realize it, the poor baby.

Only two more chapters to go. *wibble* I really hope there's a happy ending, but I also kind of hope Bones doesn't forgive Jim right away; as good as Jim's intentions were, what he did was so very wrong.

[laughter_now]

Well, Bones had some issues of his own to deal with right now, and the whole thing about Jim doing what turned out to be the wrong thing with the best intentions at heart isn't exactly helping him.
So far, I've always fixed them somehow in the end, and there's still two chapters to go in which I can try to repeat that. ;-)

And my heart just broke a little bit for Jim.

[laughter_now]

I did take him apart quite a bit, I admit it. But I wouldn't leave him there without at least trying to fix him up again.

[mijan]

I'm sure you wouldn't.

(Just a tiny thought... I know he *said* it, but I'd feel like Jim would have put more emphasis on why he'd initially said he was married to Bones - the fact that he HAD to check his condition, maybe pass it off as part of his responsibility as Captain, but also because Bones was his best friend and he couldn't handle NOT being able to see him with his own eyes. It just seemed too... brief of an explanation.)

[laughter_now]

Incidentally, that will come up again in the next chapter. Actually, I added it to this chapter as an afterthought because I thought I couldn't leave it out entirely, but the real conversation about it will happen in the next chapter. So it won't be glossed over, but I'm glad you pointed out that you thought it was too short because of course you couldn't know it was going to be picked up again. :D

YOU HAVE RENDERED ME SPEECHLESS!

UPDATE SOON!

[laughter_now]

I will, I promise. Glad you enjoyed it, thanks!

AND MAKING ME CRY DAMNIT!!!!!!
I'm running out of cookie dough!

[laughter_now]

That being the universal remedy of fic-induced tears?
Maybe I should try that sometimes.
But I didn't mean to make you cry, I'm sorry!
