Oh, god, this is beautiful. Beautiful and sad and...beautiful. Love the bit of Dom's backstory, and of Dom through Billy's eyes, which we don't often see.

Oh, this right here really got me. Because it could totally be the synopsis for this entire series.

I can totally see how this could've been hard to write. It's so very sad, first of all.. and so easy to fall into being maudlin. But honey, you kept it very real and very grounded. There's tragedy and it hurts, but there's also that life-goes-on rationale that Billy brings to it.

*loves* Your Dom and Billy really are each other's touchstones.

Heart-Breakingly-Beautiful!

Always wonderful to get more of their back-stories,and that Billy should end up with a social worker is kind of ironic, and poor Dom never feeling 'good enough'.

Ah well I'll just have to love this chapter enough for the both of us.

Looking forward to more as always, thank you!

Wow, all of the new info and insight, I'm going to have to read it a few more time to digest it all. (like that's a hardship, NOT)
I can say I do like the way this is going and that Dom as well as Billy are getting the help they need to grow from each other. Now that's an awesome thing. **hugs** Thank you!
