Hello! I've just had time to read this and... WOW! I loved it, especially Doyle and Breen's relationship. I could really feel their doubt and unsaid need for each other. Class story! :-)

Now for the vid, I loved the clips of MS being used for Doyle's father - not something that's been done often before! The music was perfect, absolutely perfect. :-)

Thanks so much! I'm glad you enjoyed this. I was hoping the conflict of Ray's feelings for his father would come through and that I hadn't overemphasized his negative feelings.

and the vid is perfect! I was very happy when haritaellea showed me the first draft and I saw her plan to use other MS footage for Breen. An inspired idea!
