*flails* GAH. This is so epic. I loved that it focused on how Jack being in the coma affects the two closest people to him in his life, even though it killed me and my hearts went out to both of them and I just wanted to give them hugs and reassurance.
• “I didn’t. She’d already induced the coma by the time I could get here. I thought I was too late to do anything.” One of the fluorescent bulbs overhead flickered for a moment and went dark. “I guess maybe I was right.” I really loved that you included the image of the bulb going out with what Kim was saying because aksdklasjda, it fit so well and was such a great visual representation of how she was feeling. • "But I can’t stop thinking that if I’d pushed him harder, maybe he would have listened.” Awww. I felt so bad for Kim there...even though she knows that Jack is stubborn and pretty much impossible to convince once he has his mind set on something, she still wished that she'd been able to change his mind about the treatment. =/ • “He wouldn’t have called unless he trusted you.” This is where the shipper in me gets all flaily and happy because I love how Kim picked up on the fact that Jack obviously sees Renee as someone he can trust, even after only knowing her for less than a day. • Awww, Kim talking about Teri...it made me sad because I could tell how much she wanted to tell Jack that he was a grandfather, but she didn't want to say anything that would cause him any more pain in addition to everything he was already going through. And this: “I have some pictures if you want-” She broke off. “I’m sorry. I have this compulsion to show them to everybody.” ajslkdajskd. That was the cutest thing ever. I love Kim as a mom. • She didn’t want to know this, not when Jack was lying unconscious in a room down the hall, when he might die without ever hearing Kim say those words. That. Fucking KILLED me. GAH. Seriously, it like...actually hurt me to read that, that's how fucking amazing and emotional and real it was. • “It’s fine.” Renee swiped at the tear she could feel slipping down towards her chin. “I do.” I loved that last line, even though it made me so sad to see Renee cry...but I loved it because it shows how much Jack means to her AND how well she knows him, because she understood what Kim was trying to say to her.
This fic was amazing and I will never get over how fucking well you're able to get into these characters' heads and write these awesome lines that sum up their emotions SO WELL.
