Sigh. A sweet and strangely happy making ending. Thanks for kids and their perseverance. Somehow I expected to end my last comment on the fic with "I feel like I just ran a marathon" but somehow this makes it strangely ok.
I still weird and instrusive commenting on this fic because I'm sure it must be really close to your heart. For me, I guess I'm influenced by the fact that my family doesn't tend towards cancer. We usually die around the early to mid 80s, but cancer usually isn't connected to it. There were a lot of moments in the fic that made me think "Is it really ilke that?" and to be honest it touched on quite a lot of things I didn't really want to think about, like that my father might die somewhere in the next decade (hopefully one decade later).
Ficwise, I think what really stuck with me was how happy it was that Rossi was given that short time of going back to the BAU (and proving Spencer wrong). For some reason that felt like it really made a difference.
I also wanted to say that I read your other two longer AaronNDave pieces. I don't even remember whether I ever commented? But I really loved them and I hope I made a bit up for it like this rather than bummed you out. I hope it wasn't too weird for you to have me commenting while coming from a probably very different place :/
