it's over. wow.

honestly i don't have much positive experience with cancer regarding survival, but i would like to believe that there is hope.

i will certainly miss these characters.

(heck i think i am going to miss my icons.)

Laura and I know precisely what happened (but we're not telling). We want for you to make up your own mind about what happened - and a happy ending would certainly be a nice one. But it is all over now, for better or worse. And I'll miss these characters too.

Laura and I know precisely what happened (but we're not telling).

gee. did you say that to me so i had one last chance to say you gals are evil? *snickers*

there are at least three different scenarios in my mind at the moment (at least one of which is absolutely morbidly cractastic), my own conclusion may never come... lol

i have always felt a bit odd giving my opinions on the writing of this fic because it is not my place. that said i have very mixed feelings regarding where the epilogue/future piece ended and yet i also feel that it is the best way for it to end. yes i am aware that that last statement makes very little sense. i blame you. lol

peace,
love,
surr

I'm rather curious as to what your scenarios are, but I won't pry. :P We want you to think of what comes after this in whatever fashion you want. If you want our take (except on whether Dom lives or dies, though), you can ask the characters over at painted_whiskey. I'm just on my way to post Andy's post.

And it is always your place to comment on this. We posted it to share it with others, and to hear what they thought.

We're still so glad you stuck with us through all of this, Surr.

Oh you two!!! But... I am glad we get to leave with some hope. In my world, they live happily ever after. I really loved my Mondays, Wednesdays and Fridays even more because of you guys! Thank you for a fun, if not sometimes bumpy ride!

ditchwitchbitch July 12 2007, 12:05:28 UTC

As I told Surr, imagine where they go after this any way you like. And we're really so thankful for you staying with us all this time, Penny. You've been one of the few who has consistently stuck with us. It's going to be strange for us not scrambling to remember to post three days a week, but it's been a fun journey, and we're glad you were there with us.

I've read diligantly, but not always commented. You've created a fabulous universe in which we've come to care for the guys.

Incidentally, my mum has successfully battled breast cancer for 15 years now, so yes I can honestly say to people - there is hope! *huggles*

ditchwitchbitch July 12 2007, 12:06:36 UTC

Rosie! I've been wondering if you were still reading, and I'm glad to hear that you have been. We're so glad that someone else who appreciates Andy the way we do read and enjoyed this.

And yes, people can battle cancer and go on to live long and healthy lives. And if that's what you want to imagine? By all means, do so!

promisethstars July 12 2007, 18:49:26 UTC

And it's over......

Aww, I love these guys so much....going to miss reading about what happens to them next......

*tear*

ditchwitchbitch July 13 2007, 12:40:38 UTC

It really is over, yes. You read it at warp speed, but this has been coming now for almost two years. It's been a strange, incredible journey, but it really has come to an end now. We hope that you enjoyed it, and that you can imagine an ending for all of our characters.

promisethstars July 13 2007, 17:39:29 UTC

Yeah, I have enjoyed this so much, you've no idea.

I can, in fact, imagine an ending for the characters...and since I was promised a happy ending, that's what I imagine :)

Thanks again for the great ride along with these boys :)

I finally read through all the posts here today, so here's kind of a combined comment for all of them.

Andy and Elijah are the same as ever, and yet, they’re much better together now than they were before. I'm so glad they've finally worked through all their major issues.

Sean and Orli wanting (and getting) a daughter - awwwww!! They make such an adorable little family. And it's cool that Fiona and Emma can hang out and stuff. *g*

You gave Dom cancer! I totally didn’t see that coming AT ALL. *sniff* and then poor Billy falling apart.

Billy: But nothing really has. You've just... got a little less on your mind these days. ::snorts::
Dom: ::grins:: Maybe after this brain surgery, I can finally understand your jokes.

LOL! It's nice that they can joke about it, but I feel so sorry for Billy trying to be optimistic while Dom's pretty much resigned to death.

The last few posts very nearly made my cry...

Elijah ::smiles, wiping his eyes:: That was the best thing you never did ( ... )

We've said it before, but this really has been such a strange, wonderful journey. It's been over for awhile for both of us, so we've done our grieving - I admit I even had a hard time answering Andy character questions yesterday simply because it's been so long since I've written him. But we loved every minute of it, and we're so glad that other people enjoyed it as much as we did. I love these last few bits - especially yeah, the Andy/Elijah ones. They're just so grown up here, in ways that I don't think they ever managed in the main thread. I love that Andy and Elijah will probably always bicker, it's just sort of who they are. But they love each other, and they've sort of come to terms with exactly what they means for each of them. They changed the most out of all of them. And yes, Dom is resigned to death in these bits. In my mind, that was his way of coping. I started to keep a diary for awhile, as Dom, to document what I felt he was going through once he found out he had cancer. I think by the time this final bit has come around ( ... )
