LocoGreggo 2008-03-25 ch 1,	abusecool story. Excellent job.
rainefan 2008-02-28 ch 1,	abuseThat was beautiful. You have an absolutely wonderful way with words. It is such a pleasure to read your writing.
Elainhe 2008-02-22 ch 1,	abuseSo beautiful. It - to me - has a soft, gentle feeling, like I can hear someone reading it out loud. Like poetry again, I guess. I loved how you had created the impression of time passing, of healing slowly in this short passage: "It had taken him hours to sink past the nightmares that followed him down dark alleys, suffocating in the shadows, then into the high-rises, climbing, climbing, finally standing on the edge of a building, feeling the pull of the abyss. He would jerk himself out of sleep, gasping for breath. She would hold him, soothe him, her voice calling him back to the warmth and ease of sleep. But now that he no longer needed her, no longer turned to her in his pain and fear, she could no longer lie beside him in a mockery of peaceful slumber. "
The Little Corinthian 2008-02-14 ch 1,	abuseOh, that was great! And great fairy tale pick, too, I remember coming across that story when I was doing character research a few years ago. Gotta love it. :0) Once again, wonderful fic!
Anki 2008-02-14 ch 1,	abuseYou are really good at poetic prose, especially angsty poetic prose. The way you weave the words together to something stand-out is really special. The fairy tale you reference was one of my faves when I was little. :)
EmpireClover 2008-02-14 ch 1,	abuseThat was a beautiful piece of writing, the descriptions were amazing. There were so many paragraphs I adored it would be silly to quote them all, I'll just tell you I absolutly loved it! The last line; Because he had been right beside her the whole time, just one arm’s length away. Is one of the best closing lines I have ever read.
marialisa 2008-02-14 ch 1,	abuseThis story has an almost ethereal quality to it. Lindsays need for Danny and her final realisation, QUOTE: Because he had been right beside her the whole time, just one arm’s length away. /QUOTE was beautifully done. Poetical
mel60 2008-02-12 ch 1,	abuseAbsolutely incredible. I loved it. I love the bittersweet tone of this and it parallels the fairy tale so beautifully. Only this time the prince did wake up and remember. Gorgeous images throughout this whole thing. I love the memory recall with Lindsay's grandmother, first the art of steeping tea and then with the fairy tale. (P.S. I think I've been to Lindsay's grandma's house). Another fabulous, breathtaking story and you continue to astound me yet again.
nikki.02 2008-02-12 ch 1,	abuseBeautiful, beautiful writing! One of the best post-4x13 fics I've read! I love the inner strength that Lindsay has in this. You wrote her perfectly. Great ending line - "Because he had been right beside her the whole time, just one arm’s length away."
arockandahardplace 2008-02-12 ch 1,	abusesimply beautiful. Life can be such a stuggle some times and this reflects that perfectly.
Yemam2422 2008-02-12 ch 1,	abuseThis was WONDERFUL! Your writing style is so unique - almost like poetry in a way. Everything just flows together so wonderfully and is just so artistic - like you're actually painting a picture (if that makes any sense). I love how you wove the fairytale element throughout - it made the story an intriguing combination of whimsical hard reality. The ending was so perfect. I loved Danny smiling and saying 'Montana'. It was the perfect happily ever after for Danny and Lindsay. I am in awe of [and envy :)] your writing.
foxdvd 2008-02-12 ch 1,	abuseWhat's this? The "make-the-other-muses-ashamed-of-themselves" week or something? Here I was, thinking about going back to the keyboard and come up with a good ending for 3 Tries... and then... boom... out of nowhere this marvelous piece hits me right between the eyes. So unfair... so really really unfair... ;)
ncisabbylover 2008-02-12 ch 1,	abusewoot that was so awesome i loved it abbylover
prplerayne 2008-02-12 ch 1,	abuseWow, this story really tugs at the heart strings! I can so clearly feel Lindsay's pain and inner turmoil. Her desperate wish for a simpler time, contrasted with the harsh reality of what is, and that what is, isn't so simple nor will ever be again is just consuming. And then there comes the realization that things will be okay. They won't ever be the same, but they'll be okay. Beautiful, just beautiful!
CarolineNotCarolyn 2008-02-12 ch 1,	abuseLovely. Very interesting exploration of their relationship. I found the way that you wove the fairy tale into the story to be particularly fabulous, and I loved the last line. So perfect. Such a great one-shot! I love that you write angst/hurt/comfort with the underlying love and trust that we know (and they know)they have, and bring it full circle. Another great fic!
