Hiya, I am here to review you on behalf of the Caesar's Palace Reviewathon. Stop in some time, all fandoms welcome – and it'd be nice to have a fellow 'Scaper onboard!

This is a very fascinating look inside John's head at what appears to be the hours before he takes his life. The voices appear to be driving him insane – or at least contributing to the problem. Gotta feel bad for him and all he's been through, torn from everything he's known and he had built a life with Moya's crew and now it seems like that he has reached the end of his endurance. I really like how you hint at his method of suicide without over the top or gory detail – most would go for blood and gore and the fact that you don't is evidence of your quality of writing.

The ending left me a little confused but hopeful at the same time – did he survive? Did someone find him in time? I am hoping so but of course we may never know.

Brilliant work.

JOhn was so fortunate that he didn't die when he thought he wanted to.

.cricket. haunting. brilliant. i'll be looking for your books in the stores when you become a writter cause you're damn good at it. bravo!

SO sad, but so beautifully written! Please keep writing! ~SurferChick

Powerful stuff but so sad. The most poignant and haunting line for me was this one *hurting but unable to feel*. That summed it all up for me. Poor John. Thanks for a well written piece, now pass the hankies... Ali D :~)

:( that was really good and really well written...thought you captured the 'thought' of Crichton very nicely...so please keep coming up with really good work like this.

Oh my... God... this was so... it was... I dunno! It was *excellent*! Okay, I'm running on what feels like about two hours sleep, and I can't even see properly, but I LOVED that... and especially this: "Fix damaged circuit, be there for Chi, tell Aeryn I love her, figure a way to that planet..." Not just because I'm a shipper who's pleased you got that in (cos I am), but the *way* you did it... just how it was shoved in amongst all the other things. It just demonstrates how he's got so much to damn well do and can't find time for any of it, and mcuh as he'd like to have all the time in the world to tell her, he can't. Okay, I'll stop now. But WOW!
