I'm beyond glad that Sawyer told Jack the truth. Yes, it's an awful thing to have to tell someone, especially someone that you love, but I believe it's important that he did. Now Margo has nothing to bargain with. She has nothing that she can hold over Sawyer and manipulate him with, and I really hope that Jack finds out that's exactly what she's trying to do.
*sigh* It saddens me that they have to go through this, but it's clear that Jack isn't going to give up on Sawyer no matter how far or how hard he pushes him away. :/ I just hope he does it quick.
That's right, he took away all of Margo's power. But he sure risked Jack's faith in the bargain, didn't he? He left Jack feeling like everyone he's ever loved has betrayed him, which they have. Once again, I don't know who to feel sorrier for, Jack or Sawyer.
Man, I'm mean to those boys, aren't I? ;)
Sorry to make you sad, but thank you for having faith in their love. You won't be sorry. :)
Man, right through the heart. Those last two paragraphs when Jack thinks back to that day when Sawyer gave him back his father and now how he's taking things away instead was so beautifully written and wonderful. Painful, but wonderful. I'm glad Sawyer told him, but I can't even begin to imagine how confused and alone Jack must feel. He's discovered an awful truth about his mother and Sawyer and Sawyer has walked away from him all in the same day. It hurts that Jack had hope because Sawyer was seeming to let him back in and open up and then BAM, the door slams shut again, and even harder than before.
I can't wait to get to the part where Sawyer and Jack finally come back together. It's going to be so earned, if you know what I mean. They deserve to have some happiness.

I'm not sure how to feel about the next chapter, because the way he deals with it is...odd. But it's gonna take a lot to overcome that. I'm really curious to see how you'll feel about the next part. Nervous, actually!
Thank you for appreciating this, even though it hurts. ♥
Um. Where to even start? This is so... OUCH. But also so beautiful. Will do a better review later (when I'm not at work) b/c there were a lot of phrases that I really liked, but right now I'm just kinda GUH. And I have to get back to work. But wow. *loves you frantically*
I think it's interesting what you've done here, making Sawyer's mom a doctor. It evens out the field, though it shouldn't matter, what his parents did for a living shouldn't matter as much as who he is, what he's done. Sadly, he doesn't think very highly of himself and he's got good reason not to be proud of the things he's done.
You'll see why, in a little while, I made the choice to make one of Sawyer's parents a doctor. It's what makes this a psych_30 fic. And you're right, he has good reasons not to be proud of himself. And yet, for every bad thing he's done, he's made up for it by doing something better. He just needs to figure that out.
Fate can be terrible and wonderful. I hope I'm doing a good job of showing both sides. As always, thank you for the wonderful feedback. *hugs*
AUGH. I should have known it couldn't be that simple.
Having Sawyer's mother be a doctor is fascinating. Not just the doctor's son/doctor's son thing, but that he's gone to Jack, a nurturer (well, debatable) and a doctor.
The end of this hurts. That Sawyer is still so determined to drive Jack away.
I TOLD you. I said I'd make it seem okay, and then, whammy! They've still got a long way to go, our poor boys. I'm impatient to get to the happy, though, so the next chapter will be a couple of 'em smushed together to hurry things along.
I wondered how you'd feel about Sawyer's mother being a doctor. It kinda explains some of Sawyer's issues, I think...I'll bring that out a little more later. And yes, Jack does nurture Sawyer a bit. But I think it's starting to go both ways, and that makes me feel all squishy inside. :)
So, I guess this is a battle to find out which one can out-stubborn the other. Wanna take bets\?. ;) n ♥
You know I loved that it was a library! Even before we found out that Sawyer was the one who funded it, I squeed a little that his mom had a library in her name. That he did it made it that much better.
Yay, I'm glad you like my band. :) *pets Jello baby*
