Ooh, this is really good! I love the progression through these emotionally-charged Castle/Beckett moments - and once again, it makes me long for season 4 to start! (Good thing we don't have to wait too much longer now!)

Thanks so much! I'm really glad you liked it. The wait for S4 is torture. I am exerting major willpower to keep from watching all the sneak peaks floating around.

Wow, this is wonderful! Fascinating look at all these moments, and how they both have grown through them.

Thanks for you nice comment.:) Sooo much happened to them this season, slowly but altering their relationship into something serious and real. I can't wait to see where they go with it this season.

This is beautiful. Her life flashing before her very eyes, the what could have beens and if onlys, significant moments between her and Castle. Everything is perfect. Great great job *two thumbs up*

This is wonderful, thanks for sharing. Love getting into her thoughts here and really enjoy the scenes you've picked from the season.

You've made a note earlier about something you were trying to do with this story? To me, it's a series of memories under the perfect sky? Perhaps the flash of stuff she sees as she's lapsing into semi-consciousness post gunshot?

It works as a collection of short memories, whether you intended to have those moments shown in retrospect or not, and it's gorgeously written. I especially love this bit:

Kate has a growing, terrible suspicion that if something were to happen to her it might ruin Castle. A suspicion borne of the abrupt knowledge of how she would feel if…. God. One of my fave bits of the entire season was the part where Castle thinks Beckett has been shot in 313, even when they are in the line of fire, on the floor of the cafe, and he checks beneath her jacket. I love that she's horrified, but equally pleased that he cares so much ( ... )

Perhaps the flash of stuff she sees as she's lapsing into semi-consciousness post gunshot?Yes, that's it exactly. Flashes of memory right after she's shot, with a sort of what-if twist. I was thinking about titling this "Flashes Before Her Eyes" but thought that might be a wee bit too on the nose ( ... )

Oh, wow. Thank you for such a lovely, lovely comment. I haven't written anything in a long time and I wasn't sure if this worked. I'm so, so happy that it worked for you.:)
