I don't like this one.

You are a truly gifted writer.

Holy crap!

Okay, I know that's not the most eloquent review, but COME ON. This is phenomenal! How do you do it? I was in tears at the realness and heartache, totally convinced that Bobby had indeed gone off the deep end. I was heartbroken at the loss of the mug and the partnership and the sweet story behind it all. Just when it couldn't get any better, that ending...Oh that ending! My heart can't take this, yet, I need so much more. Bravo!

This was the first CI story I read, around a million years ago. I'm so glad I couldn find it again, you have no idea :)

You're breaking my heart. In a good way.

This is an absolutely beautiful story. One of the best (if not THE best) I've ever read. Excellent work.

Oh, that was just HEARTBREAKING. Love it.

WAh!

So... heartwrenchingly sweet and sad. You've got great emotion into your stories, really, and you have Eames down pat. That Santa mug. :)

This is an AWESOME story! I'm glad I found it out at the C2 forum. I just hope it's not a prediction of things to come ...

Wow. Best thing I've ever read.

Piaffe - this is wonderful! It took me this long to read it, being a refugee from Hurricane Rita has thrown off more than just my writing and reading balance.

This is a beautiful testimate to Alex and Bobby. After reading the intereviews with D'Onofrio about Bobby's future, and the interviews with the writers, I hope we never have to see this come true. But you captured the emotion of Eames - as she has to deal with coming full circle in the Gorens' disease. You even nailed Logan!

My chest ached for the lost, gaudy Santa Mug. But it was a great symbol of the life and partnership they'd had - being broken beyond repair.

Bravo, as always.

I really don't want to see Goren going crazy, but I guess if they decide to do it on the show the won't ask our opinions... Anyway I really liked this story. You showed a very deep side of Alex and you did so with care and skill. The point that it was the Santa mug that shattered and not just some random desk utensil just made the whole thing more meaningful. Real good job!

if goren goes crazy i'll go crazy,too. i did like the story tho, you got eames exactly.

Wow, I cried like a baby. Or like Eames, I guess. Good work!

Wonderfully sad.
