Ow.

Seriously, I'm in physical pain here. The entire two Johns storyline never fails to gut and skin me, and you really found a unique way to look at it, while still making it utterly heartrending. It's so easy for most authors to go straight for the obvious 'Moya!John's inferiority complex' route, myself included, just because it's SUCH an untapped well of pain. But it's somehow worse to see him accept the role of the 'copy', and then struggle with letting it go when suddenly he can't be that anymore.

This storyline really does tear me apart. Thank you for doing such a great take on it, and reminding me how even the stories that break your heart can still be special to you. :)
