That last line fills me with dread.

Why do you toy with us this way when we <3 you so much?

I understand the need to have Emory be able to stand in his own, to know that he isn't only standing because Nikita will help him hobble along. I'm just glad that we're getting a 3rd installment.  WHEN are we getting it???

Fin?! Fin?! No, not yet. It's too sudden, from losing Nikata to the end. I would have wanted at least one more chapter, to help soften the rough transition. It doesn't even feel like a HFN, just incomplete. It's a beautiful story, but so heartbreaking.

Wow it's over! What an amazing, amazing, story and what powerful writing  that has ripped my heart apart and put it back together multiple times! So you said there'd be a third installment- can ya let us know if there's going to be any intense angst in this one so if so I can prepare myself!? :D

Nooo! My heart literally hurt at the end. Poor Nikita and poor Emory, I can't imagine what he is thinking confronted with a child and knowing what Nikita's own would look like. However, they can't break up. It will destroy everything.

Ah, Kita, such lack of communication. But I have a feeling Emory will surprise Kita with understanding. But my heart hurts for him, he's so scared that he's not good enough and his fears must seem like they are coming true. Wonder how long it will take Kita to understand he needs Emory

Promise there's a happy ending coming for Emory, cause this is depressing :( My heart aches for him, and I don't know how this can end happily for him.

Why do you do this to us? I know you don't mess around when it comes to ripping our hearts out, but why? Poor Emory deserves some happiness, but how can he have that without Kita. I absolutely adore this story, angst included, but I can't help but feel like you are a person with a magnifying glass burning all the ants that wander into your path along with our hopes and dreams. This is such a good story though! I hope you are able to find some way to give Emory some small form of happiness!
