poor jim, i hate things like this, but they make such good stories :D

You're making me cry!
But Jim is so easy to woobiefy isn't he?
Ack, and the poor baby... I'm guessing the aliens came for the colonists, but Jim managed to get them to fight back?

Yeah.. I guess it's not obvious in the movie, but it seems like taking the blame is some innate quality that Kirk would have. Poor guy--it was a no-win scenario, blood and all. Excellent writing as always. Calling blood McCoy's currency was a really cool detail. XD

Sad, terrible, heart wrenching but, as always, a joy to read. Or-- the writing was-- the story hurts. Poor Jim. Poor everyone.

I like the fact that they couldn't snap him out of it but they couldn't play along either. It fits both McCoy and Spock well.

And now, I will use my depression to fuel my muse! :) Thanks for another wonderful story.

Oh my. You were so right about the rating... My heavens. This is awesomely written. Horribly sad and painful but excellent. I almost want to hug Jim when he says "he's sleeping..." God that was wrenching. Kudos! I figured I'd review this chapter, but I dunno if I can make it through the rest. I tend to like more gratituous Kirk beatdowns...

Sadness! It made me cry alittle.

That was so sad...
I mean, I really just wanted to cry!!
Wow... Well, you made it realistic for me. Uh, nice work?

oh.

Ouch.

This story hurts. I suppose I should say it's a good hurt because it's beautifully written and compelling and the characterizations are wonderful, but it hurts to read.

I like it. Its a good reminder that life on the Enterprise is not all sunshine and rainbows and "Going where no man has gone before".

Thanks for sharing.

This story moved me like nothing else in a long time... I can only imagine what it must feel like to shoulder this kind of responsibility ... is it even possible if you know that decisions have cost other people's lifes?! You certainly need good friends at your side to get through all the guilt you might feel. Great stroy! Thanks for writing it!

Sad, but good. Please keep going!

I enjoyed that too much. I'm an incredibly sick person.

seriously, you're like a fricking awesome writing machine. dark yet deep. nicely done, thanks.

=(.

*Sigh*
Great, now I'm totally depressed. What a way to end the day! THANKS A LOT.

I'm just playin'. You're awesome.

This has got to be the most depressing thing I've ever seen! And I watched 'Dear Zachary'! Very good though.

Ok. It's late andnow imsad. But on the plus side you really did a Great job with it
