K. Thomas Fenwick chapter 1 . 6/22/2009
that was really good.
uniquely fresh chapter 1 . 5/25/2009
This was a beautiful fic. I enjoyed it so much, especially the different style in writing. First person narrative, you got it spot on.
darkangel1910 chapter 1 . 2/6/2009
This was a very good story. I loved it.
ohcyfan chapter 1 . 2/5/2009
I really really liked this a lot. Loved all the medical detail. Very interesting and different style of writing. I've not been a real fan of these two in first person narration, but you nailed it.

Love this:

Three hours since the accident, they thought.

Well now I think I’m gonna have to amputate your kid’s leg.

That's totally Owen. I want to see that Owen on the show.

Is this complete, or do we get to see what happens when he takes her home?
CardioQueen chapter 1 . 2/4/2009
This? This is breathtakingly beautiful. You have Owen's character down and a very clear Cristina voice. Great work. I hope you have more.
crazyvale23 chapter 1 . 2/4/2009
i really loved it! i like how you moved away from where the show is going and moving toward an area that we all would LOVE to see on the show. whens the next part? or is it complete?
Anja25 chapter 1 . 2/4/2009
Fantastic. Loved Owen's inner thoughts and the cynical yet still hopeful approach. The kid's story broken my heart.
xtaline chapter 1 . 2/3/2009
Wow. This was quite fantastic. I wasn't so sure at first, but once I got a little further and understood how each part related to the others, I loved it.
nikkitan89 chapter 1 . 2/3/2009
great one-shot! thank you!
lostie21 chapter 1 . 2/3/2009
That was really good! I do love Owen and Cristina together. :D
Rachel2008 chapter 1 . 2/3/2009
I like that, it's a very different style. The part about the abused boy just kills me. I sort of miss a punch line from Owen to Cristina, that would would have been great, but maybe you can do that in a second chapter? When they go to his home? :)

Take care.
eTara chapter 1 . 2/3/2009
I really liked this. I love the style of writing, it fits the mood of the piece, or Owen's mood of the scene..kind of terse and faux-defeatist (faux because the defeatism disappears at the end, which also fits the character)

sad it's only a one-shot though :-(

and I love when she tells Joe he's buying her drinks
