I've read this story before, but can't think why I didn't leave a review, it's well written and a very different pov for Shattered than most take. Very creative and well done.

I never though about this angle, but I really like it.

that's really good. i never even realized that in shattered. great job, great story...

Ditto to Zarain, good catch. I never realized how hard it must have been for Tom in that episode. Great character insight.

AHHH! Don't leave it at that.

As an adament j/cer I hate the thought of them dying without admitting their feelings for each other, but with TPTB, I know that it probably won't happen. Although shattered did leave a few hints at possibilities.

Don't forget B'Elanna, she still outranks Harry, even if she is Chief Engineer.

I enjoyed this very much. I think you captured Tom's personality very well. He would listen to the record, even after knowing what it was and he would start to think about/ plan what might have to happen, even as he would mourn the potential loss of his commanding officers.

Nice job. Sequel?

I knew I'd love reading this! It's like you have a direct line into the character's thoughts and feelings! Great work!

Interesting. That would make an interesting episode to say the least.

I love it! Those exact thoughts were running through my head when I saw that ep! It makes you wonder how Tom would be able to handle it! Someone should right an AU story about it!

Aaaaaa! That's all I can say to that! I didn't even THINK of that when I was watching "Shattered," good catch on that one. And man! That's a pretty horrific thought for Tom to stumble on... well written, as always, of course!

OOOH! Poor Tom! He obviously does NOT want to be captain just yet! Poor guy! Great job! Keep it up!
