Awesome freaking story! I don't know if the disease that poor tony has is real, or if our lovely author has it, or someone he/she knows, but it sounds horrible. Either way, it was very well put together! The story was very well writen, with the main plot being the illness, and a secondary plot upon the case. Not to many ff writers write that way. That takes planning, and etc. I love the way Tony and Gibbs was protrayed in this story! The personal Issues that Tony had to deal with, you didn't turn him into a weakling, and write him all needy. He still had his strength, was still Tony, just with some changes. I like the fact tha you had tony be a trooper, because in the show, his character, he really is. Gibbs was still his gruff bastard self, and didn't turn into this teddy bear like man. He stayed within character as well. I have to say, I lke the amount that you covered for the whole gay part. I really can't see Gibbs and Tony flippin birds because they findt hey hav feelings for each other. You watch from the first season, and you can see their relationship change, and grow. It's not too hard to in a story eventually morf it into a romance, Very well done!

GREAT story....sorry to see it finished already, though. alisa

very good story.

Just re-read this whole story over 2 nights. Really beautiful story and very well written- thank you!

Great story - desperately sad at times (had me in tears on more than one occaision) but great character developement and the relationship between Gibbs and Tony was lovely.

Finally! That was a great story *hugs you* Thanks for sharing.
