abuseOh, my word. I actually started to tear up about halfway through that but I can rest assured that to me at least she survives and they do live happily ever after. I would ask you to continue it but I do know that it is pprobably left better like this.

Nice job despite the sadness of it. Well done.

abuseHoly **. Pardon my language there, but wow, this was one awesome fic. I found the Tempe/Parker relationship cute, but you entered major angst-age when they crashed.

I almost never cry, but you got me when Parker is in the ambulance and asks why his daddy is crying. You made this story so vivid, especially with his apparent loss of time. Like he's drifting, not exactly there.

For my sanity I am going to say that barring an extensive stay in the hospital, Bones will be fine.

Magical. That sums it up. =)

abuseVery nice little dip into the genre. And very well done on the accident stuff. Realistic enough to resonate, and dramatic enough to captivate.

abuseWow. Incredible. I loved the relationship that you created between Bones and Parker... the emotion she felt as she worried about him immediately after the accident... and how you captured her quiet acceptance of her inevitable death (although I really hope that she didn't die). And, you really managed to bring us into Booth's feelings and I felt that you accurately portrayed his reactions in that horrible situation. I was especially impressed with his observation that he lived in this world every day, but it had never really involved him. I always look forward to reading your stories and hope you are inspired to write more soon.

abuseWow. That was amazing.
You had me biting my nails in suspense all the way to the last line, wondering if Tempe would be okay and I loved how you had her telling Parker the story even through her own pain.

FIRSTLY~bless you for the tissue warning! Because OF COURSE I just HAD to read this after an extremely weepy day [SHE did IT! SHE graduated!! and of course I was a BLUBBERING mom!]. SECONDLY~~Yes, this isn't your usual genre, but...W*O*W! YOU had me sitting on the edge of my seat, panicking right along with them [BOX of tissues in hand!], heart racing, mind reeling! Your graphic visual of the accident was OUTSTANDING! Scary as HELL but AWESOME! The graphic situation within the car after she assessed their injuries was gut wretching at best! The way you wove the fairytale into the story was BRILLIANT!!~~and the PROMISE of finishing it even though she thought she wouldn't be around to deliver it--so un-Brennan like BUT so humanizing and hopeful! I can't say enough of the emotional outpouring, the feelings you envoked in me though Booth! The tears only flowed faster when he said “Everything that matters to me in this world is in that car and I’m going down there.”, [and then more tissues needed...]Only to be pushed a bit further by the "They aren't dead." comment! Moving on to the heartbreaking prayer! I only boohoo'd harder during the ride in the ambulance! ARE you trying to make me buy stock in KLENEX!? lol! OR Quervo Gold??! The wait--7 hours of surgery!--THAT had to be BRUTAL! MY GAWD! And what SUPERB descriptives [throughout of course but,]of his feelings of not having info for the team of her condition and even his feelings toward the doctor and his lack of emotion. Ahh but then you give us a light...a light at the end of a bleak tunnel that says what he already knows, and the doctor only confirmed it!-- that she's a fighter and that the story she started wasn't finished yet! BRAVO!! [stands and claps! throws away all those wet tissues! blows nose--again for the millionth time!] Not sure whether I need chocolate or a really strong Margarita-- maybe BOTH! LOL! Okay I have to go read other CBPC fics now!--I'm way behind! DAMN, I hope I don't have to have tissues for them too! OH yea, THIRDLY...I'm seriously hoping you don't have first hand knowledge of anyone sustaining these types of injuries in an accident--that you attained them through research!! :o

YTDG!!

abuseVery nicely done! I expecially liked the contrast in the beginning between the cuteness of Parker's checklist and the accident. The switch from one to the other was jarring, but in a way that emphasizes the accident rather than confuses the reader. Great job!
