I don't think I quite have the words to express how utterly awesome and perfect this story is. The characterization is masterful, and you swing so effortlessly between humor and deep emotion. And the funny bits were so damn funny--Gwen's sock gown, the Owens, the JET PACK. Thank you so much for writing this.
