Very good characterizations. You know Max and Logan well. Your talent as a writer shines through. Your dialogue is true. Very nicely done. Looking very forward to more. I've enjoyed your previous work as well.

This was a wonderful chapter. I love how events have conspired to keep Logan at the farm overnight. There were so many beautiful scenes in this chapter. Logan's frank admission "I hate it" to David, David's response and the ensuing conversation showed once again what a truly dear friend David is. It's interesting to think that Logan didn't let boyfriends get in the way with girls that he liked in the past. It definitely shows how much confidence he has lost. I really liked the way you used the cigarette butts to showcase Max's observation skills. My favorite parts though were the humorous moments. Max's "rich guys pjamas" line suited her perfectly and Logan's 'What makes you think..." certainly gave me some hope for him. I also really liked Logan's drifting asleep at the windowsill scene. I could completely picture him doing that. Both his and Max's responses to the cow were priceless. That was the perfect place to introduce the cow. Somehow I feel that Max's suspicions about the cow are more warranted than Logan realizes. Great Writing. I'm looking forward to more.

i like this series its pretty cool so far. i hope that logan changes his mind and stays i nthe country.

that last line, 'it was a while before he saw her again', sounds kinda ominous to me (i bet i spelled that wrong) i hope nothing to bad happens to her

Finally! Geepers creepers, you have no idea what I went through to read this chapter. First it was ff.net, then my stupid computer, then every time that I was able to get into it, someone would call, or come over and I'd have to leave it, and the next time it wouldn't work again. AHHHH! Anyways, I told you this to prove just how much I love this story, b/c otherwise I would've just given up. Awesome, awesome, awesome, and so sweet. After watching a rather whack episode of DA last night (Boo), I was glad to get some more 'realistic' plot. Please keep going. If you keep going I promise that I'll even keep trying to get to read it. ;) Great chapter.

That was really good! I loved the end, it was very funny. Please write more as soon as you can. _

This is really starting to get interesting. Who could be after Maria? I'm really curious about Logan's relationship with Sam and David. David already seems to be a very astute friend. He seems to have sensed that Logan was dreading having to explain about his disability and has kindly refrained from hitting him with a lot of questions about it. Looking forward to reading the next chapter and finding out what Max discovered during her bovine investigation.

Ahhhh, a working ff.net and a new chapter of You Promised. I am happy. The only way I could be happier is with a longer chapter. :) I like the way you imply Logan's a player with that "You've never let that stand in your way before." I'm glad Max got him to stay, although I figured she would. I cracked up at the pajama conversation! What a mental picture...Logan sleeping without pajamas. ;) Good installment all around. Can't wait for the next one.

I don't think I've had the opportunity to tell you this before, but I'm really enjoying

this piece. You have a nice writing style and a good handle on the characters. I loved

the line "That, Max, was a cow." I someone who's heard a number of cows bellowing

in the middle of the night when you're least expecting it, I can relate to her reaction.

Nicely done. Looking forward to reading more.

Awww. How sweet.

Logan's thoughts about the newest 'fashion' were so sad. I love the chain of events that actually got him out to the farm and his struggle with the thousands of fears and little obstacles that presented themselves now that he was in the chair. But like the true dear friend that he is, David took care of it all so simply and naturally finally putting Logan at ease. 'How about that!' says it all. This was a wonderful touching chapter and I'm happy that it is only the beginning.I can't wait to find out how David elicited the 'promise' from Logan.

You've really captured how easily Logan falls into depression when things don't go well with Max both in the 'present' and the past. You've also beautifully captured his tangled emotions about Max, flustered, disconcerted, confused, obsessed. Then there is Logan's avoidance of all the people that are dear to him. That in itself shows how difficult being in a wheelchair is for him. Great writing.

Love this story! You get into Logan's head in an amazing way. Please keep it up!

I was right-I couldn't resist. :P Great thoughts from Logan on having to deal with the impact of the wheelchair on his travels and his friends. Great argument between Max and Logan. (For some reason, "Don't be an idiot" sounds just right coming from Max.) I also like the image of Max being happy in a family, even though it's not her own. Please give me more to read soon. :)

Oooh I like this so far. I like the idea of more about Maria and about Logan's friends. I really would like more of Logan's backstory -keep posting.

Ahhhh! This is great! So good to see more from you. Just one nitpick-instead of "Winter 2020," you might want to actually pick a month, because at first my brain followed a natural progression from the previous November date and assumed the next one was later, perhaps December. It took me a minute to realize you meant early 2020. (Just as one suggestion, datewise-a fan has done some math and thinks 2/14 works out for Bennett & Marianne's wedding.) Glad you included Bling in the story; I miss him on the show this season. Very creative idea, dealing with a trial we barely got a hint of and working with a character we haven't seen since Flushed. I love the dialogue between Max and Logan, and I had to laugh when Logan promised her some oil but forgot. Her reaction was great. (Kyre tries to decide whether to read chapter two or get ready for the hockey game she's attending tonight...knowing she never really can resist good fic)
