What I particularly enjoyed about this one was the tender love Alice feels for Jazz. The closeness of their relationship, even in mundane things, is wonderful.
Also, I like how you show how hard this is for Jasper. There is a strong possibility he'll have a breakdown and not be able to do this. This side of his personality is hinted at in the books, and we all see it, but it's sort of hidden from Bella. I love seeing you bring it into the clear light. Jasper is easily depressed and always hard on himself. Every time, every fic you remind me just how well you get Jasper's characterization. It's tiny little things, but every time I go "Yes, that's so Jasper."
Kudos.
