Oh very nice thank you , you are a good writer

I am glad that Abbot gave Jane a proper excuse to get out of his deal with the FBI. I wish the show had gone with it too instead of making it look like the FBI let Jane go out without any repercussions.

I was glad that Lisbon put up a fight against Jane's ultimatum. Liked the fact that you used this to make them go a few steps ahead in their relationship.

Good job. Keep writing.

I agree with you in what you say in Jane's words, that he goes crazier and crazier everyday. I think the writers made it so, at least since The Greybar Hotel.
And as much as I hate Lisbon having to give up things that are important to her and that Jane did make it look like an ultimatum, I get where it comes from. However, I am yet undecided whether I want her to give in. It messes with my head still!

The most important point that I thought you made in this story are the lines "...I've always known you were a cop. But you always knew I was broken." In my opinion, you got that absolutely right! To anyone who does not get Jane's point of view here, you made it crystal clear in two simple sentences. Bravo.
I also felt like it was Jane's unsaid words to the audience he angered when he left again, including myself; "You always knew I was broken".

Awww very very good! :)

I'm a lurker and a liker!

How did I miss this one? It's wonderful, if a bit heart wrenching in some areas.

They didn't go to Lake Travis but Jane found a nice "cabin" by a pound, didn't he?! ;) I hope to read something from you before the finale. :'(

Now this story got too realistic! U must be an insider! No other explanaition how did u get it all straight !simply amazing! Thank u, very much!
We def need next episode now! Ugh 2 more days! Terrible!:))))

This is a great, well-written story, very true to character. I can imagine them saying the lines. I haven't heard any spoilers for the next episode, but I'm hoping that Jane proposes officially and properly-there are only 3 episodes left, and it would be a letdown if he proposed in the very last seconds of the finale.

I think that the only way they can realistically resolve this dilemma is that she has to accept the fact that he will always try to protect her no matter what. He's told her so many times over the years. In the field, her colleagues have her back, and they don't prevent her from doing her job, but if he continues to work with her in or out of the field, he will continue to protect her even if it means interfering with her job.

I like the idea of Jane seeing a psychiatrist, because he really needs one and it would help him if he cooperates. No one can deal with PTSD without professional help. Of course, in your story his treatment would be a way of getting him out of his agreement on disability. I like that too because it's obvious to me that it's just what you have him say: he's sick of death and chasing bad guys. It just reinforces his conman behavior if he is always thinking up ways to fool the perp into confessing or revealing himself. Jane deserves a chance at life without the shadow of death and murder always hovering over him. And so does Lisbon, even though she's only dimly aware of it at present. Jane is aware of countless exciting possibilities for their life together, whereas Lisbon still needs to be persuaded that she could be happy doing something else.
I look forward to the next chapter!

Love it! So far the most realistic, promising and in character fanfic! Can't wait to see them alright and together. And I,honestly, wasn't mad at Patrick,but sad... Hope they work it out well!:)))
Thank u,again!

I'm so glad you addressed the over use of the word ultimatum in the fandom's reaction to the Jane's fear /Lisbon's job conundrum ... I mean how many times was he going to have to show her his distress before it finally hit home ... ultimatum was far to cold a word.

You wonderfully incorporated the sneek peak of 7x11 in the story! Well done!

I think we're almost there - to a happy ending! Please continue!

Really well written! Love how Lisbon and Jane meet half way and understand that they love each other,no matter what.

It's hard for me to review any 7x10 tags with any sort of polished opinion because I hardly know what to think/feel about the events of this gut-wrenching episode. Days later, I'm still so affected. But this was wonderful, and so true to character, as always. Thank you.
