Love this! It's interesting to see another part of Elizabeth that we rarely see. thanks for writing this!

I loves this story! I've always wondered how Emily's mother had found out about her daughter being dead and then coming back. That was a great way to tell the story. There really aren't enough stories about Prentiss and her mother which made yours even better.

I absolutely loved the story. I enjoy reading stories about Elizabeth Prentiss considering there aren't many of them out there. I hate the fact that we didn't see her during this scene in the tv Series. Thank you for writing it, really nicely done.

Perfect

Thank u

I love the realization Elizabeth had, that although Emily didnt have a family with her own children, she did have a work family and that they do mean the world to each other. And of course her realizing how important Emily had been to him. Not asking him about it, so he could keep his safety net, was probably a good idea as well.
I love their little reunion and how Emily explains, but has to leave so fast after. It would have been fun to see how Elizabeths next conversation with Derek went, just because now she needs to hide the truth from the man she knows loves her daughter and is working for her.
I love the short ending of Derek finding Doyle and letting her know.

Oh this is just getting better and better. I love that moment between Charles and Elizabeth, where they both allow each other to be comforted by the other, as they both lost Emily. To bad our BAU team had to interrupt them.
Thanks for having Rossi come with Hotch. I think it was a good idea, since he was very close to Emily as well, at least we always think he was. That he winces at the mentioning of her death seemed very appropriate, while Hotch stays the professional one.
Wait did Charles know that Em was alive? You did a great job in portraying her in her interaction with Hotch. She didn't want to break down, but at the same time the information was breaking her.
The scene with Morgan was absolutely heart breaking. I love how he talked sense into her without being as forceful as everyone else around her. He did it in a loving way, pointing out Emilys love for all of them and not disregarding Elizabeths feelings at the same time. His advice to go somewhere they both love was great too. Morgan promising to find Doyle probably made her feel a little better as well.

I like how Elizabeth is smart enough to consider the situation and leave a trail for the security to find.
I think you got her nature very well, of trying not to break down and cry for so long. Prentiss women are strong in their nature and don't just cry. You did great in portraying those feelings.
I was a little surprised that Elizabeth was the one to show her the way out of the building, but then again that is a good bonding experience.
Glad you brought in the team at this point. It is good to hear their opinion on things.

I don't think I actually ever commented on any of the chapters, but I read them and loved them all. So here we go on your reviews.
I love the detail on Elizabeth's feelings. You make so clear where she is at with her feelings and how she got to that point. Love the details about her own father and the exhusband.
When it comes to Charles I imagine the Head Security Guy on Princess Diaries, who cared so much for his queen. :) I love it.
I thought it was great that Emily had contacted Charles, without her mother knowing. It fits so perfectly to her character too care in a quiet way.
As of Elizabeth sneaking out, really I'm not surprised. After all Emily is her mothers daughter, and I don't think anyone would stop a mother from seeing her child's funeral, if they have to go through that.

Masterfully done .

Bravo

This last update has left me speechless for I'm not sure how many minutes .

It is amazing, brillant, raw, haunting and beautiful.

You really have captured Emily and Elizabeth perfectly. :))

That Elizabeth could see in the pictures Derek would send her of Emily and the team together that Emily had found her calling and family.

That Elizabeth also realized that Derek was in love with Emily and I suspect from those same pictures that Emily was in love with Derek :)) and that neither had acknowledged to themselves never mind each other of that fact.

You write in all your stories how I imagine Emily and Elizabeth would be with each other once they let go of their hurt, anger and miss understandings of their past and let their love of a mother and daughter engulf them both :))

Love also that you have Elizabeth and Charles be there and be together :)) that she has his love for her and Emily to keep her strong until Emily can return :))

Amazing and brillant once again, Thank you for sharing :D

Great 'fill-in-the-blank' story. Good exploration of the mother-daughter relationship. Elizabeth isn't the easiest of characters to write and I thought you did a great job with her characterization. Thank you.

I'm glad that Emily went to her mother to let her know that she's alive, but that she had to keep moving. At least her mother could breathe a little easier, however that could be easy knowing and yet still grieve that her daughter is alone in the world somewhere hiding and on constant watch.

The ending was perfect...That was all that needed to be said, because it meant that Emily could finally come home:)

That was most brilliant, although heart wrenching to read. Thank you for this amazing story. Now I want a happy DEmily story to make up for all this sadness you just inflicted on us...LOL

I really enjoyed this story. Thank you for writing it.

I loved this chapter! As surprised as I am that Emily risked her safety and her mother's safety to let Elizabeth know she was alive, I was glad she did. As angry as Elizabeth was, it was good for both of them. Plus, I loved how you ended the chapter with Morgan letting Elizabeth know that he found Doyle. It was a perfect way to end the story, since we all know what happens afterwards. Great job! This was a lovely story. Not only did it keep the characters in character, but it was well written. Fantastic job!

I enjoyed reading your story. It added background we didn't see in the series.
