This was your first NCIS LA fanfiction and you did it well. No Densi here and that's OK. It is early in their partnership. I wasn't aware everyone had to see Nate after a shooting. I have a feeling that probably didn't last long since everyone is lying anyway. Thank you gf7.

I really enjoyed this! :)

I dont get you... On some other stories you have there are alot of subtle and not so subtle hints of Callen/Kensi relationship but you also have Deeks/Kensi stuff too. Which one is it?

Nice. :) It feels very true to the characters, and it's nice to have the follow up we never get on the show. I enjoyed reading it.

aha - I knew I'd like other things you've written. I actually read and bookmarked this a while ago, but never reviewed (silly me).

Any chance you'll be writing more for NCIS:LA anytime soon?

Dude, this was seriously fantastic. What a great first piece for this show - a defining little character piece.

Your concept of 'the dance' is lovely, and feels very real. Very much something I could 'hear' Kensi think.

I loved - "she nods and offers a smirk that she doesn't feel" - just because, even though a simple line, it really introduces the whole concept nicely. Nice little visual.

There have been a couple of episodes to suggest there's more going on under the surface with these characters than the simple tough-guy always-in-control stuff. And I think this
really fit with what we've seen so far, but, as good fic does, it took it much further. Loved it.

Kensi dreading the talk with Nate and yet being so thrown by the interruption - also lovely. Says so much about how much she has to rely on her routine to be able to live through everything she has to live through.

And that all roads lead to her father - I totally buy that, and not just because he's the only really significant piece of backstory we have on her. It just fits. I think to the
extent that they've started to reveal her character, it all holds together really well, and it all stems believably from her daddy issues.

Seriously, I knew you were writing this one and I guess I had a few expectations, and you totally continue to impress.

Really, really nicely done. I think you've done a great job getting into Kensi's head here. I love how she just accepts the fact that she has to go through the whole thing with Nate, and I love how it throws her that Nate's not there. How it all just makes her world a bit disjointed for a little while, like an earthquake. The bits of dialogue that are there are spot on - the characterizations are accurate. I also like how you harken back to other episodes and story lines - too many writers seem to forget that all of these characters have a past. There are episodes that have already happened that affect how they think today. You've pulled it all together nicely. Thanks!

This is incredible!

Awesome job.

I think this story is amazing! I'm not a very good writer, so I can't really tell you about "voice" and all that, but I felt like you captured everybody just right.

Thanks for the great read.

WELL DONE for your first story for this fandom you di an amazing job you got the insecurites of Kenzie the wit of Callen the concern from Sam alittle more work on Hetty but NATE well done not easy to do.~

I loved this story! I think you did a great job grasping the characters. I loved how you kept tying everything back to the routine and how showed the effects of one event. This was truly a beautiful story, I really liked how you wrote it.
