Oh this is lovely. I like the way John tries to look out for her and instead, she ends up taking care of him. I like his confidence in her and the conversation at the end. Very nice dear!

Thank you! John wanting to rescue her and Riley ending up being the one to rescue him was the idea that finally sparked the rest of the fic. I'm glad that worked for you.

oh yay! I love this to little bits. Riley is perfect, her fragility and her strength, which John knows how to reach because he knows her. And she rescues him because she is tougher than she knows.

And you threw in leaderly!Derek and kickass!Blair. *hearts*

*twirls you*
(and trust me, I COMPLETELY understand the being late part. *g*)

Oh, man, I was so happy I got you as an assignment because I knew what you'd like but so worried because it's really hard, sometimes, writing for someone you know and respect. *clings*

EEEEEE! *grin* I love what you did with the ending - perfect, just perfect. And you slipped in that line just for me! *flails*

Rock on, woman - this is a sharp story. You tightened up everything so nicely. High five!

(It's late. Coherent comments are beyond my grasp at this point, sorry!)

Thank you so much, not just for this comment, but for all your help on this one. (I'm so glad the line worked for you. I had to re-read and tweak the whole thing to find a good place for it. ;)

Awww, they're so cute! And bonus leader!Derek is awesome. *draws hearts around him*

Umm. I found a couple of typos. *giggle*
“Riley? Are you other there? I need help.”

And that cost fell squarely no Riley’s shoulders.
