this is a great story. thanks for posting it and i was wondering if you were ever going to do a sequel on this one because it is such a good story and i want to read more on it.

Oh my gods! Oh my gods! Oh my gods! *waves hands frantically in air and attempts to reach through computer screen to save Neal* THIS WAS FANTASTICAL AND TOTALLY REALISTIC AND BEAUTIFUL AND DEPRESSING AND PERFECT! Anyway, crazy rant over. Thank you so much for writing this!

Love this please update

I don't know how the next chapter is going to be but I'm kind of in a mood where I want hurt and no comfort. Take that as you will.

I really like what you have written so far! Knowing that Neal wanted to change and that he couldn't get help when it was both wanted and needed hits me right in the feels. Thanks for posting!

Interesting. Not sure that the swearing is needed. Neal is too refined for that, even when he's wasted. Keep going though

great beginning...is there more?

Your comments after the first chapter - EXACTLY!

I thought it was finished...I didn't check :(

Woe is me... or Is it finished, because if that's the cliff-hanger...Grrr!

I am only surprised that there aren't more fictions along these lines. This was well done...and what does Moz do if Neal does the (for us) unthinkable. I think the only reason Neal wouldn't be suicidal is because he's ridiculously resiliant and absurdly optimistic, but sooner or later...several of my fics have brought him close.

I really 'enjoyed' ? this! Very well done.

...WELL.

There has to be more there just has to

Please update this!

Noooo!
Please come back, I miss you really really much.
And Neal, and Peter, even The Little Man, they all miss you because seriously it'll be awful to them to stop here. You understand right? RIGHT?
Please I beg you continue!

Oh My God! Update!

Don't leave me here! Next chapter please!

Quite the cliffhanger. I could really see either a suicide or homicide attempt happening here. (Please let it be an 'attempt.') Really enjoying the story, looking forward to more.

NOOOOOOOOO! That's where you're ending the chapter? You haven't been channeling Jeff Eastin from when he decided how he was going to end season 5, have you.
