Love this story! So emotionally beautiful

Thank you so much for revisiting Dickie! It was very moving to read about how he's dealing with everything. A beautiful ending to an emotional journey for our favorite Detectives, and Dickie. Thanks for writing and sharing this with us!

Yes, that was inevitable. You've been leading us to this all along.
I really wanted to finish reading this story to see where you'd take them and I love their new house! It's easy to picture them living there, and it reminds me a little of the house I gave to Peter Stone and Olivia in my story "Someone like me".
I have to say that you keep adding little details in the story that I would never think of including (not that it's a bad thing, mind you; it's just different). Example: there were not forks with the delivered food. I mean ... you know? I think all those tiny details describing exactly what people do throughout the day make up for a large portion of your extremely long chapters. I really want to read your stories because I like your ideas but the length of the chapters still makes me pause. Just some honest feedback here about the form; obviously I love the content! On to the epilogue now.

Well well. I'm beginning to think you are going to have Elliot exit the force so Nick Amaro can come in, but El will be Olivia's SO waiting for her at home. I'm here for it!

This prologue is very well written. The last paragraph is universal.

Wow, there's almost too much in this one chapter to comment on. Dickie moved me several times. I'm very surprised Elliot and Olivia haven't engaged in any heavy makeout sessions yet! I mean, sharing a bed for several nights and it's still all just cuddling and pecks on the lips? I commend Elliot's restraint there :))
A date is required though, I agree. Just one. Then it's a go, right?

I really like this fic so far. I'm only on chapter 4 and i've already cried like a baby. BUT since I work in a hospital blood bank, I thought I would let you know... When Olivia needed blood the doctor said they were out of A pos units... A pos patients can receive A neg, O pos, and O neg.

A toddler losing interest in playing with adults with his toys? That would be a first ... And falling asleep after waking up to not one but two adults he adores? I don't know about your kids, but mine would have been unstoppable! :D
Dickie is a sweetheart.
It will take me some time to work through these huge, detail-filled chapters of yours, but I intend to finish reading this story one day! ;)

I was with u until...

Langon declared his client guilty. in front of the cops.

Elliot offered money and a car without any demands.

Why is Tucker there?

Why doesn't he carry a gun?

What an awesomely descriptive yet sad start.

Love the story! You should do a sequel. :)

Well well, so much kissing. I'm trying very hard to get used to this meek version of Olivia. She's different since the shooting but maybe that's natural. I'm glad she got through to Kathy.

Slowly but surely. :)

Oh my. She was doing so well and the Stabler kids are being so sweet. Does she have pneumonia?

Glad she's awake and back home. I hope she will remember her time in limbo at some point. It seems like such a waste if she never remembers it.
