"It's been a really long time, Bones." His voice is weak, his body is numb, and his heart is so strong it's shaking his entire soul as he admits everything and nothing in one breath.

The Last line was brilliant! I loved this chapter so much. Now I'm wondering how Bones is going to deal with this. Can't wait to find out!

I actually wrote that line in the middle of this, before; just kinda flew in and I went "HEY I LIKE THAT!"
I'm glad it resonated so strongly!

"Thought you were gonna hit me." And the strange part is that it feels like it's a lie in the same instant that it feels like the whole goddamn truth. Jimmy's in his mind sobbing that Leo wouldn't hurt us... while Jamie's still on edge. Sam's nowhere to be heard, and Jim feels like this is both a victory and a loss. So he elaborates, because he's only lied to Bones a few times in the time he's known the bitter man, and he doesn't want to fuck that up now with more half-truths. "Thought something bad was gonna happen."

Okay, _everything thing in that one paragraph just blew my mind. Felt _just_ right, and kinda painful.

And that does it, because suddenly Jim's not there anymore

What-! Nooooooo~~~~, the others can't just take control at this moment askldfjadsiou!!!!

I'm going through this in tiny fifteen minute increments, so I'm not done yet. *facepant* I'll be back in a bit.

Jimmy came out!! I was expecting Jaime to go flying off the handle, or Sam to smooth out the situation, but I was _not_ expecting Jimmy to come out and be utterly adorable! Seriously, when does that poor boy ever get a chance to be himself? I wish Bones had hugged him~.

[k_e_wilson]

Why would I be that mean?
...
wait...

[shingo_the_pest]

We need more adorable Jimmy! He needs a hug! *waves a pointy stick threateningly*

I really like it, too! thank you!

I am enjoying this story very much. I usually wait until the story is completed before reading it completely but skimming chapter 6 made me break my own rule. This is an amazing rendering of a difficult topic - multiple personalities. You have done an excellent job of keeping them straight and of explaining how they each help Jim in their own way. I can't wait to see how Bones will help Jim in his integration. Thank you.

[k_e_wilson]

Oh, god, I'm so glad I could corrupt someone into breaking a rule!
But seriously, I've grown pretty attached to the personalities as the story's developed in my mind and they all sort of came together on their own.
I'm glad you like it!

This was recced to me through a friend of a friend. Glad I took the time to read it, excellent job handiling a couple of delicate issues. Also, way to torture the reader! Is there a second half to this chapter? Or better yet, the second half of this chapter and the next/final installment? Please, more? Waiting with baited breath here!

[k_e_wilson]

I got Recced?! :D (Not gonna lie, that pretty much made my life, right there.)
Oh, there's a second half to this chapter (possibly a third, no idea yet) and there is FOR SURE an ending.
I'm just a lover of cliffies and angst. :3
