Thanks!

I SECOND THIS. WHERE IS THE REST OF THIS?????????

[cassievalentine]

I THIRD THIS! MORE NOW!

[hihoplastic]

ILU. ^^

Of course they did! Canon!John will always go back for Elizabeth. *glowers at certain writers* I will get them out as soon as I can! ...probably in class. Oops. Awww! *hugs you*

<3!

You are:

a) cruel
b)amazing
c) DID I MENTION CRUEL? Okay, make it incredibly cruel, because you did THIS in an amazing, beautiful way. You break my heart, more with each new line, and then you give us this:

And then he's past her, into their house and into their lives and if Elizabeth crumples and Kate yells it doesn't matter, because there's this man with his arms around her back and his face pressed against her neck and he's holding her like a lover, like a dream.

I won't be able to forget that line, ever. Just like I'm unable to stop thinking about this fic and replaying all those scenes and lines in my head, like my favorite sad movies and their best scenes, and I want more. What happens next? OMG!!!!

And.... in some sense what Elizabeth is looking for is Atlantis, not just the city, and not just in this fic. I dare saying it's a core of whos he is. Atlantis is something perfect and precious and almost reachable. I think she even had it for awhile, and faced with a prospect of losing it, and everything her Atlantis meant to

*evil laughter*

Awww, yay!! I'm so happy you liked it...even if it's angsty. I...actually didn't think anyone would care much for this. 'Cause it's mostly Elizabeth, and it's mostly Elizabeth interacting with an original character, and usually fandom kinda goes o.O? at that. But I'm soooooooo happy you like eeettttttt. :D *runs around in circles*

And I love your analysis. Elizabeth needs her Atlantis and her John. Without those two things... *glares at SG writers some more* And um. That would make for a really interesting introspective pre/post-Lifeline fic. *coughs*

<3333333!

Oh, wow. At about here: 'Come on, Mom,' Kate begs. Jeremy puts a hand on her shoulder and says, 'Maybe you should let her go.' this had me exclaiming "Oh!" in a pained voice, but the Meredith the bunny made me laugh, so it was okay. Beautiful story. If there are indeed two more parts, I greatly look forward to them!

[hihoplastic]

Thank you so much for the beautiful comment! There will indeed be two more pieces. ...hopefully soon. *fingers crossed*

I kept reading in fear and trepidation and then breathed a sigh of relief. He came for her! *flails* Must rest now.

[hihoplastic]

Of course he did! John always returns for his supersekrit girlfriend. :D
