I'm on my phone and don't have much as lengthy or coherent to type that wouldn't be repeating what others have said, but DUDE. It takes a heck of a WIP to sustain so many people's interests for so long, and to have it come to such a perfect and satisfying conclusion is just the icing on the cake. And I loved the banners--that's exactly how that should've ended. Kudos!

Thanks so much! I had a great time writing this story, and I'm so happy that so many people had a great time reading it, too.

Wow! This is truly a triumph. Congrats on finishing this fic.

You took a dark concept, blended it with the Parks and Rec universe, and somehow made it work. That's something worth celebrating.

I really enjoyed this fic; thanks for sharing your creativity with the fandom. What's next on your plate?

Thank you so much for reading and commenting so much. I had a great time sharing this with everyone.

What's up next? Well, for Parks I don't expect that I'll write any more multi-chapter fics. I don't think I have it left in me. So I'm just waiting for inspiration to strike for another one-shot or two. I'm plugging along at my novel, and lately I've been doing a little fic for Once Upon a Time (apparently I lack the willpower to resist a sexy pirate in the midst of a redemption arc). And that's about it!

Massive congrats on finishing this story. What enormous achievement It has been a pleasure to follow it from close to the beginning. I am so impressed by all of the research you must have had to do, all the details you have incorporated to keep this story realistic. I think I mentioned in a previous comment that I've never been quite as invested in Chris's story as I was here, and I'm delighted that he (and everyone) got such a happy ending. This story has been such an integral part of this fandom and this community. So thank you, and congratulations again! :)

Thanks you so much for reading and commenting all along the way. I saw this story not only as a fun contribution to the fandom, but as a personal challenge to stretch myself with a complicated and difficult story. So yes, I did some research, and yes I had lots of threads to keep track of. But using Chris as one of my main point of view characters was my biggest personal challenge. At the time I started writing him in I didn't like his character that much on the show, so I really wanted to push myself by writing a character I didn't like. And in the process I grew to understand, appreciate and even love him more than I ever would have expected. I'm now really sad about him leaving, because I've grown so very attached to him.

Anyway, thanks!
