I can't tell you how many times I've come back to re-read this story, one of my absolute favourites 3.

Just commenting to let you know that I'm rereading this fic for at least the third or fourth time - whenever someone asks for a rec, whether they like Star Trek or not, I invariably mention your story.

Very nce. I enjoyed it immensely. Thanks for witing.

Hey Ho!
You have no idea how much I love this story! I just read for I think the fourth time and I thought it would be only fair to leave another comment.
I love the structure, with your long chapters, acts and arcs and how tidy it is like that.
I love the detail you put into every sentence and every small thing describing the people and their surroundings.
I love the accuracy of the characters, that, even if it might not be completely canon, fits just perfectly.
And above all that, I love how you manage to seem funnier and more charming in the small notes you put before the chapters than I could ever in real life. No seriously. It kinda sucks xD Ok, but for real now, I enjoyed reading the notes so much. I would usually skip them or fly over them, but… well, I think you get it.
I also love that you focused more on the bond between them and the love thing than the physical stuff. Every story, in which they exchange tiny gestures (that no one else would even notice) to communicate, I LOVE.
Ok, uhm … yeah, thank you for writing it. Again. And uh… guess I’ll see you in a month, when I’ll be reading Atlas once again.
LLAP
Ok, bye-bye then 3

I just want you to know that this one of the best fics out there. I frequently reread it as I love it so much! Thank you!

I can't remember if I ever reviewed this story... I suppose I'll get review-blocked when I try to post this if I did! But I just re-read this story again (an ongoing annual-ish tradition), and wanted to say that it was just as fantastically entertaining, tragic, hilarious, exhilarating, and just plain beautiful as the first time. Man, it makes me wish your story was canon - you expanded on everyone's characters and chemistry so wonderfully, and where you took them all, and where you took Spock and Jim's relationship, just... *chef's kiss* a masterful piece of work. I can see from the date of the last story you posted and the last logged update to your profile that you might not still be around these parts, but if you're still reading your reviews, here's mine on top of the pile of well-deserved thousands that got here before me. This story is spectacular, and I'm so glad to have found it way back, and to be able to keep coming back to it (as I suspect I always will).

Hey Ho!
Oh… my god… you were killing me here. You know, I really just wanted to read a little story about my friend Spock, whom I knew nothing about.
How could it happen, that after reading this goddamn fic, I’ve started to read into the history of Star Trek, the Easter eggs and backgrounds and actually started to watch the original series?!
I don’t know when, but somewhere along the lines of this story I became obsessed. Obsessed with Spock (who will always be portrayed by Leonard Nimoy for me), obsessed with his friendship with Kirk and McCoy, obsessed in general with every single person on that damn starship.
I wanted to read books. I really did. Yeah… did…
Fascinating…
Well, it is how it is.
Thank you soooo much for writing this gem that I shall always hold close to my heart. Even though I will never forgive you for pushing me all the way down that deep dark hole, I do feel gratitude.
Live long and prosper!
Ok, bye-bye then 3

Hey Ho!
Ok, I read through about a hundred different articles of Star Trek, so now I understand a bit of what’s happening.
Still not much, but reading into this story has been SO much fun anyways!
I love Spock, Kirk, their relationship as well as McCoy (sooo Coll character) and the others.
Plus, I have to laugh every time there is a commentary text at the beginning. Thank you for that!
Phew… well, gotta keep reading now!
Bye-bye then 3

Hey Ho!
Ok, so I don’t really understand a lot. I don’t know Star Trek (just like one movie and a few clips from the original series) and English is not my driest language.
However, I LOVE Spock!
So I wanted to try this. And I love this story so much! I enjoy the way you write immensely and have to laugh more often than I had expected.
Thank you for making the effort of writing this complicated story!
Ok, bye-bye then 3

You know, it doesn't happen often, but once in a blue moon when I feel a bit depressed I Google for the sentence "is this the totality of your plan?" and add the words star trek fanfiction, and your work shows up. To be precise, cheaper 20 of this story. And evey time I read that chapter again I feel the chills again all over. There is such a feeling of love and protectiveness in that chapter, it's overwhelming. Thank you so much for writing this amazing story!

I think this is my fifth re-read and I'm still as awed, excited and in love, just like that first time.

Kudos to you!

Hugs and more hugs,

Vanya

I really want to see Thomas aboard the Enterprise wreaking havoc with Sulu, Chekov, and Jim and driving Bones to either early retirement or a mental breakdown

...And now I want to see Jim motherfuckin' Kirk being swarmed with children

I absolutely love this saga, but this chapter is especially heart warming. The way you write Spock and his inner feelings (emotions) is just lovely.

I’ve now read this story for the third time. It’s amazing every time.
