This was gorgeous, and please when can we expect Part II? :D

But seriously, I loved all the emotions of this. I know you called it a crack fic, but it really doesn't feel like one. I can't even tell how many times you broke my heart with this story.

I can't even imagine how it must feel for Neal, to be used as an incubator and then have to give up the baby each time. And June, Mozzie and Sara - I love them all so much in this fic.

It would be wonderful to read more of this universe. I really hope the Muse cooperates :)

:-P Lucky for you, I have a timestamp nearly written. But Part Two is aways off, sorry to say. Unless you're good at magic and can give me more time in the day.

*hugs* Thank you!! It started off as a crack idea, but it grew to be so much more than that, and I'm so glad someone else agrees. I didn't mean to be so mean to Neal, but everything just flowed and that's how it worked out. *pets Neal* He deserves better! At least he got Sara.

So glad there is going to be a part 2 and some timestamps. This has been a great AU. Neal and Sara seem as canonical as possible. Would be interesting to see more of Peter and maybe his reaction.

[reve_silencieux]

Thank you! It means a lot to me, because I was so hesitant to post this fic for so long. The scenes with Neal and Sara came so easily to me, which was a surprise since Sara tends to be hard to write sometimes, at least in canon. I'm happy they came out well.

Oh, just you wait! There's lots of Peter in part two!! :D

Thank you for writing such wonderful stories for us to read. And yes I am really hoping we could get to read more of your work soon.

[reve_silencieux]

Thank you for taking the time to read! I know it was... unusual. There will be more! I have a timestamp nearly finished. Part Two will take a little longer though, I'm afraid.

I still <3 this, and <3 how perfect they are together, always. And I love that Sara's tenacity and spirit help them be able to lean on each other, and how both their personalities just *work together*. Just love this, ridiculously much! :-)

[reve_silencieux]

Thank you! *hugs* I did have a lot of fun putting them together. I didn't want to make Sara act out of character though, and I think Neal still has to have a little con in him for her to fall for him. She needs that fun in her life. (as much as she'd hate to admit!)

You'll hopefully get some more soon! (As in, expect it in your mailbox this week hopefully)

[sherylyn]

I absolutely agree -- she needs that bit of not-quite-lawful thrill with him, too!

And YAYAYAY!! I can't wait!!

[reve_silencieux]

Just remember that enthusiasm when you read it! I keep tweaking, and commenting with alternate wordings and questions. It's not pretty! (This is what happens when you open up a fic you wrote a year ago)

I love, love this story. So poignant yet you can't help but root for the both of them. Can't wait for the next part of this story!

[reve_silencieux]

Thank you so much! I love that people can look past the 'crack' plot line and see the love story beneath. It didn't start out as this whole emotional, angsty storyline for Neal, but I do love how it's another life for Neal to overcome, just like in canon.
