I cried but I couldn't stop reading.

This and the prequel fic you wrote for it were so good. It's actually kind of nice to see Jason emotion aside from just anger.

A true masterpiece. I love it !

:D Love your description of Jason. Honestly I'm fairly convinced that even death might not eliminate the "explosions" even if it cuts into the "anger", though that really depends on the "how". Even a really angry, sucky death would probably reveal a very tired Jaybird, though he'd be pissed and/or hysterical over some possible deaths at least for the first few moments (i.e. another Death-by-Joker, taken out by a "hero", etc.) before slumping to the nice ground in relief/resignation that it's over.
And I really can't imagine Jason i/staying/i peaceful even in the afterlife for long, hence the insistence that the "10% explosions" won't fade. Shift a little, maybe, depending on how much there actually is to said afterlife, but yeah. Hells bells, he'd probably be one of those "exploding casket syndrome" cases, because It Can Happen and he'd get to gross out his brothers one last time. XD

I remember reading this before, but I don't see a comment from me. Sorry I didn't leave a review before!

This was beautifully done. I love the structure, the snippets of conversation breaking into Jason's vision of each member of his family coming to him to persuade him to stay. I love that Thomas and Martha were there to lead him to the afterlife. I was teary-eyed at Jason calling them Grandma and Grandpa. I could feel Jason's struggle at the end- his exhaustion warring with his desire to stay with a loving father. The ending was strong. Good work!

I was listening to No Day But Today in Rent, and I started crying. A lot. Actually, I still am.

Hi! Me again! Can I just say that this is absolutely amazing! Just honestly, how do you write so well? Please do us Jason fans a favor and never stop writing because you do such an amazing job. It's outstanding! It doesn't seem OOC because Jason is 90% anger and 10% explosions on the OUTSIDE. Inside, he's just a marshmallow. Plus, he's dealt with a lot of pain in his life so it's only natural that it should force it's way out at some point, hence the suicide attempt to try to make it all go away and the fact that he kind of wants to stay dead in this scene, but he's having an emotional breakdown because it's probably just so overwhelming to see them all there trying to save his life/bring him back. He's probably spent a long time thinking none of them cared (he came back from the dead and found everything going on as if he was never there... except for that memorial) and he broke so many of their morals and so he would feel like he didn't deserve to be a member of their family anymore. Beautiful job!

please make a sequel! x

Please make a sequel where Jason wakes up and everyone is happy and so on... Please?

That was wonderful!

Beautiful~

THIS IS SO GOOD

I read the prequel and this, I have to say, this is a piece of art. I almost cried, almost, but I bet you can make me sob my eyes out with a sequel.

You portrayed the characters very well and how you written about them opening up to their emotional side towards Jason, I am so impressed.

A sequel? Pretty please?

Hey so I read the prequel and I would cry with joy if you wrote a sequel to this because it's incredible

My gosh, this was beautiful.

I read this a while ago, and I meant to review because it was literally one of the best things I had ever read on this site, but never got around to it, but now I've stumbled upon it again, and I have to say, just absolutely fabulous job. The drama and the angst... it was all just so perfect and I love it!
