This is a very nice read! The final conversation between Sam and Jack in the jumper is just SO THEM.

I have so much love you right now :) This is perfect, just the sort of thing that I was after with that prompt. Sorry that it gave you such trouble, but you really have produced something rather special

Beautiful look at their relationship, and the ways in which it is constrained by what they've lived through.

I had to go back and read this through twice to enoy all the details. I loved the textures of Jonlinar's memories coupled with the subtle nuances of Sam and Jack's relationship and how while it's evolved over the years to be both professional (without the world coming to an end!) and very very private. Very nice.

'It was a private shit-flipping, of course, but he still has the spatula to prove it.'

Best.imagery.ever. I just about died laughing at that sentence. Nice story overall!
