Oh...this is so good. The Befores, the Afters, the horrible, awful feeling of Starting Over All Over Again...fearing that she'll cope in a way that hurts Noah. Ed trying to look out for her, sharing her dubiousness about Dodds, encouraging her to take care of herself, to call her doctor, to take the time off as a good thing...

You do SUCH SUCH good work with the brittleness of her emotions, her desire to deny them, how she's CAUGHT between her own progress and this setback, frozen there in place, hurting and avoiding and not sure where even to start. SO good.

Noah fingerpainting with orange chicken is bonus. And his "all better" kiss is the *sweetest.*

Oh, this is so good. Excellent work. Nice camaraderie between Liv and Tucker. Nice little-kid mannerisms with Noah. Excellent work tying together the threads of past and present, adding some departmental politics...it's really good.

Amazing. Really well done.

Loved every single line, also Tuckson makes me happy!
Mentions of Lewis do too yeah I'm a bit of a sadist like that but this story just edged on it beautifully.

I am loving Tuckson.
I fantasize about them. I was trying to go back in the episodes to figure when they let us know they were together. It was Townhouse Incident. Joe asked Olivia if there was anyone in NYPD that has pull and would care if she lived or died. And then Joe was talking to Tucker and he said "Your little girlfriend" Also at the end Tucker had his arm around her waist the whole time they were walking off. This was episode 10. So they have been together for a while.

Please continue this story. I love it.

I really really really love this. It is more tactful and in character than the episode was! Well done!

I love this. It's realistic without being excessively dark and totally on point...Really interesting

Nicely done one shot. I'm not so sure how I feel about the Tucker thing in the show. It seems kinda strange that a guy Olivia has basically despised all these years is suddenly becoming part of her personal life. It's just weird.

Great story. Loved it.

I liked this story it was really good.

THISBWAS THE BEST THING I HAVE EVER READ (don't know If you can post emojis in reviews but that was crying)
Like seriously, zero joke, you're one of the VERY few writers Where when you write I can actually see and hear the characters and this was no exception. I love your writing so much like you don't even understand. I'd die if you write more Tuckson. You wrote them so perfect and is love it if you wrote more of the

Well written! You're helping me warm towards this idea of Tuckson.

Wow...I really liked this. I could see it play out this way on the show.

Great

This is perfect! I have no words. My heart aches so much but it was filled with love to the point of almost tears because of Noah. And then Tucker! I just love this it's great!
