Oh, that was so good! I'm still a little shaky on the whole Jack/Bobby thing, but damn, if there are more stories like that, then I'll be a-slashing again.
Really well done. It had a great feel to it; the way you had writen it fit the story perfectally. All in all, a fantastic job and I loved it!

Thank you! That is such a great compliment, I'm all for it if the story can nudge you toward slashing again. ;)

But Bobby's not going to screw this kid over, and every time he looks at him all he wants is him naked and needy and just broken enough to need a hero.
Dude. It's like. EXACTLY.

Because absolutely awesome as Jack/Bobby is, I can't say it wouldn't be worrisome, with Jack's past like that, and it just is another demonstration of the awesome brotherness and the lengths they go through for each other, because Bobby denying himself hot Jack!sex just to make sure he doesn't fuck Jack up completely, THAT IS SACRIFICE.

Heh, I make it all sound kind of silly what with the Jack!sex, which is the complete opposite of my real reaction. It seriously hit me right in the gut. Bittersweet in the best way. I should've munched on some dark chocolate while I read this, God knows I got enough for Easter, heh.

Boo, how did I never reply to this? It's amazing the things you find in a totally neglected inbox.

Anyway, THANK YOU from the depths of my soul. I'm back looking at stuff like this trying to inspire myself to write again, and it's mostly the comments that do it, not the story itself, so. ♥

The ending was painful and unexpected and utterly beautiful.
