Thanks for catching the typo. I still had a bit of editing to do after I posted.

Thanks also the suggestion of including the codes. I hadn't wanted to crowd up the fic wit listing them, but it's probably a good idea. Thumbs up. :)

oh, i liked that a lot! the parallel construction between her patients highlights their differences, and i especially like the reference to differnt schools of psychology/psychoanalysis (though nitpick, isn't it Viktor?)

like shell, though, i wish i knew what the headers referenced...

thank you!!!

[paradise_city]

Thanks for the nitpick. Apparently my editing needs to be edited. :)

And I've gone ahead and updated the codes. Thanks for the suggestion.

[cathexys]

oh, codes are very cool...thanks!

(and i had to look his name up, b/c it looked wrong but i wouldn't have sworn on it either :-)

[roseveare]

I liked this very much! (and would also be fascinated to know what the codes mean...)

[paradise_city]

Thanks!

Also, i have no idea what your icon's from (...wait, is that Firefly, maybe?) but it's nifty.

Oh, cool! I liked this little snapshot of Kate's life.

[paradise_city]

Thanks. I'd hazard a guess that her life is probably a lot more interesting than we think it is.

This was, quite simply, a joy to read. The wistfulness yet acceptance of the downsides of her job mingled marvelously with her pride and the positive moments. The quiet observations of her patients were always gentle, with a great deal of fondness and I can see her caring about them, whereas on the show, she always seemed a bit too perfect, not fleshed out enough.
You gave her a soul. Thank you.

[paradise_city]

Thank you much. I do think she's a bit flat on the show, but she has so much potential as a character. Out of all the people on Atlantis, she's one of the one's I'd most like to talk to just for the hell of it.
