you people kill me with your bullshit

Another story where Beckett is victim. So he is bad guy and back to being a Playboy if he goes on lunch date with someone else and have 4 dates in 3 days. So tell me what Beckett is? When she has candle light dinner in precinct and making out with someone else in precinct? Is she a bitch? Or when Castle refused to talk to her alone after case she replace him with hunt, and when Castle did same with Gina when he was being lied and turned down several times he was the jerk and asshole and bad guy.

When I read the sentence "Before, he'd been waiting, and now she was Beckett.", it actually stopped me in my tracks. I immediately knew you'd have books out, and I see from your profile that my instincts were right.

I don't write reviews as much as I should, especially given that thousands of kind people have reviewed my own stuff, but I had to say a few words on this piece. Your work is several notches of quality above most stories I've read here. Thanks very much for sharing it.

Best wishes from Edinburgh,

I've always loved this story... One of my favourite 47 seconds arc fics.

This episode is very uncomfortable to me, I like it, but when everything was going well, everything fell apart. This fic is so good and so easily to read and I just love it!

Oh you are good at writing sweet and thoughtful conversation between our two, the conversation that should have occurred. Kate has the courage to stay with it...and that makes all the difference in the world. Your writing is superb. Thanks.

You've got to have one heck of a writing talent to get away with "do me, Castle!". Luckily you have mad skills in spades. Triumphant!

oh my darling kate, her text message "i know i'm no fun. i know i'm complicated." hit me like a ton of bricks.

"it's not just you." that's so them - saying it without actually saying it

and the last line. still laughing.

Awesome story... I wasn't part of the Castle fandom when all this angst was being played out onscreen, and it's so interesting to me to read stories about that period. I think 'Castle' fans (or at least the Caskett shippers among them) are so fortunate that the show's makers had the courage to bring these two together. I'm certainly fortunate that they did, both because it was 'Always' that got me really interested in 'Castle' (I first watched Seasons 1-4 in the period between the airings of 'Always' and 'After the Storm'), and because I know what it's like to love a show and its main characters, but then have that love be diminished by endless, endless angst between two people that really should just cut throught the crap and be together. And now I've gone off on a tangent, but anyway... great story.

This was pretty great , i loved it :)

I started reading something else, and I realized I needed to read this first.

Because this is my 1000th review, and I feel like it should belong to you.

No worries, only half of those are for your stories...

LOVED it how you compared this flight attendant to Josh. She is his Josh. A great way to try to escape and hide from real feelings.

Ah, those people need to learn how to use woooords!

Ah.

But you made it all perfect in the end. Because you always do. Even if it's not happy, even if it's angsty, you always make it right.

And this was right. Their usual banter and her teasing him.

Ah. Of course they'd do each other. And only each other.

The last line made me laugh out loud.

Love, love, love it!

Two things I especially liked this time: the laughter wrapping around like some sort of protection (I've thought of his words like that before, so it was nice in this context), and the line "The sound reverberated through her, echoed in her ribs, found residence in her heart." It's just a great image, a fantastic idea, and very sophisticated wording. I don't know, but I like it.

Thanks! So much better than the hanging ending. I mean WHY THE HELL *DID* she call him? GOODNESS GRACIOUS.

Now *that* would have been the perfect ending to The Limey! Heck, I'd settle for it at the beginning of Headhunters - I'm not picky! Although I highly doubt we'll get that *sigh* Oh well, back to my alternate Castle reality where all the fic's are the truth & the 'real' episodes are just a terrible nightmare ;)

Oh & this line just broke me - "It was - it was something, and now it's broken. And I don't understand why. What did I do wrong?" Poor Kate :''''(

If only! They are killing me! I definitely like your version better!

Dang. I missed the first 10 or so minutes Monday night. Apparently I missed more than I thought.
