To sum it up in one word: completely awesome!! Wait, that's two. Oh well. I've always been terrible at summarizing.

Wow. Just wow.

I love how you captured how utterly vulnerable Dan is. He's a difficult one to characterize, and, for what it's worth, I think you've done a wonderful job.

This is going on my favourites for sure.

Holy cow, now this is a damned good piece of Dan fic. Lovely ccharacter portrayal, and I like the idea that (well I assume) Clockwork lets him out of the thermos to do this and takes care of him in such a manner. I felt so sad reading this. Excellent job, this is going on my favourites. ^^

Wow. I liked it but I kinda need someone to explain it.

interesting peek into Dan's psyche...
