That's absolutely lovely - thank you so much for writing it! Thank you for showing us Dan's point of view, and for giving a voice to poor, invented-just-to-be-killed-off (but honestly, which of the regular cast could I have killed?!) Rachael. I love the details: how Danny stays in touch with each of his former colleagues in a different way, Casey being the catalyst for Dan's career change; blonde Natalie!

I adore this - thank you again.

I'm so glad you enjoyed it! This story really grabbed my attention the first time I read it, and it was really a blast to remix it for this challenge.

Thank you so much! The original fic was really horribly sad in how Dan got everything he want, but lost so much in getting it.

Oh, ow. This is wonderful and painful.

Thank you so much!

This was lovely. It had a great flow to it and it really rang true for the characters.

Thank you! I'm glad you enjoyed the characters.

Beautiful and interesting story. I enjoyed it so much. I really liked how Dan learned to let go of his hurt and start enjoying his good memories of his relationship with Casey, and how he loves the one he's with and tries not to let the impossible perfection of a hypothetical relationship he regrets not having interfere with the pretty good relationship he does have.

Thank you so much! Dan's story in the original fic really grabbed my attention, and so it was a lot of fun trying to expand on that, and I'm glad you enjoyed it!
