Your stories that include Alexis and Kate conversations are some of my absolute favorite Castle stories. No one ever really talks truth to Alexis except Kate and it’s tough to read but lovely to absorb your words.

That was beautiful.

Alexis is so annoying

Oh jeez can Alexis mind her own damn business ?

Lovely one shot! Totally loved it!

I got confused during the discussion with Alexis, but after that it all fell into place for me. I liked this one.

loved it! you're good at confusing dialogue, capturing the feelings really well.

Awww yeah! Now we're cooking with napalm, baby!

;P

Spectacular work here, chezchuckles! The imagery of Kate pushing herself to exhaustion through repetitive exercise leading into Alexis confrontation with Kate in guise of advice...leading to Kate pleading for help in getting out of the loop, finding a path off the roundabout she's been in for years. It sizzles and crackles, with Alexis adding a new level of voltage to get things moving faster than the system allows!

Not sure if see Alexis doing this but made it believable. Dialog sounded true. She was quite upset with Kate after the shooting so pushing her on that seemed true. Nice way to push her to own up to what happened with Castle and to face what she is going through.

What a DELIGHT TO FIND THIS! How could I not have read this before? LOVE it! Thank you!

love this story! it's my birthday coming up ... would you consider adding a sequel as a second birthday request? or a longer chapter for july 13th for the 100 days story?

please please make a sequel to this - I melted!

I have no words. Love the way it was written. It just seems so right (if that makes sense...).

i'm going to need to re-sign up to so i can start marking stories as favourites so i can come back to them again.

Even though the ending was perfect i'll admit i went looking for a sequel! It's hard to let a good thing go.

That was... Wow. Just, so messed up, but moving, and perfect, and... yeah. You are so amazing at this. And it's so good to see the author who started with a single jewel with a funny title get her profile FILLED with awesome stories. You need an award.
