okay, so this is one of those fics where you look at the pages and pages of comments and think GOD THERE SHOULD BE MORE!!!!
seriously, this is just one hundred percent perfect. PERFECT I TELL YOU. especially, especially, ESPECIALLY, the characterization. UNREAL. really. really unreal. but only because it's SO REAL. especially John, who we really don't see very much of in Show, but is fully realized here in all his gruff and loving glory. this is my john canon. and that last line, those last few moments, jesus. *thud*
can't thank you enough.
