Oh, man... I'm so glad Matt has Cory and Lea around. And glad Cory took the giant step he needed to take. And glad Ryan Murphy is allowing Finn to be Matt's care-taker.

Please, please write another installment soon (preferably before another 5 months go by!). Will Matt rally - have some good health for a short while? Will he really die? What will happen when Finn meets Matt's parents? When will someone finally put a bed in the downstairs of Matt's house? Tell me, tell me!

I had no intention of continuing this (or even writing a follow on the the first one), but now you have me thinking about Cory meeting the parents...

I've never really been able to get the first one out of my head, so I was glad to see this as heartbreaking as it is. I love the family dynamic you've created.

Wow, thanks for this comment. I'm really thrilled that something I wrote stuck with someone for that long.

Best RPF I've seen written anywhere. You've written this so well. Well done, it's truly awesome and heartbreaking.

I just did a pretty awesome re-enactment of that scene where Will stops his car on the side of the road and bursts into tears.

MATT CAN'T DIE. If you don't write more, if you don't make him better, I'm gonna step into my pink bubble of sweet ignorance and imagine such an ending to this myself. It is decided.

Anyway, yeah. Making someone cry means you're doing something right, right?

That is weird - it's loading fine for me. What's the last line you've been able to read?
