Well, you know, I'm someone who reads the end before I start. I know it ruins the surprise but I think it helps you pick up on all the little details -- it's different but I don't think that's a bad thing.

I'm really glad you liked this! Thanks for reading and reviewing!

Smart, spooky, a little sweet (Claire looking over him from wherever she is) and very touching.

Beautiful and atmospheric, lovely story!

Atmospheric is definitely not the worst thing I've heard ;)

I'm glad you liked this! Thanks for reading and reviewing!

This is so very well done - love it to pieces, although it breaks my heart for Sawyer and poor lost Claire, too. ♥

I was kind of going for heartbreaking, so that's actually good to hear.

I'm glad you liked this! Thanks for reading and reviewing hun!

This is really fantastic, with that sixth sense kind of turn at the end. I thought perhaps that was what was happening and I loved that that's in fact where it was going. I've read a lot of LOST haunting kind of stories since the end of S4 and this is one of the best because it's so subtle, and melancholy in the way Claire doesn't actually get seen by anyone. She doesn't have some mission to get them to come back, she can't interact or speak to Sawyer, and it's heartbreaking. It's sad that she's alone, and Sawyer's alone.

I totally hadn't even thought of the sixth sense when I wrote this but that is kind of like what it is.

You know I considered doing the whole "you have to come back" mission type thing but I figured I -- and everyone else -- have done it enough. I just wanted the feeling of complete and total isolation and pretty much hopelessness -- and hopefully I got that here.

I'm glad you liked this! Thanks for reading and reviewing!
