That last line is so appropriate for you and your storytelling! ..."Not everything was fixed"...but what you did with this story is make the situation so much better than what the series writers left us with.
I think I will call you The Fixer! I just found your stories and after reading a couple, I've discovered that you are a brilliant writer. And you make everything soooo much better!
Thank you.

Wow great story. This would had been great if this was in the series. I like it a lot.

Outstanding start of your story and, apparently of your writing career. In that short page, you changed and advanced the Caskett relationship more than any of the other writers I've read after many pages. Of course, in a one-shot, one doesn't need to establish background, scenes, or character development. Nonetheless, your dialog was clear, effective and, most importantly, concise. In those few sentences, you had your characters say what they needed to say in a manner that will quite likely bring these two back together as they both so obviously wish. I'm standing in line for the future submissions. I can hardly wait!

It's difficult to write a good angry rant - too little and it doesn't seem genuine, too much and it's difficult to imagine that the listener wouldn't reply or leave. This story threaded a nice line with Castle's initial arrival and diatribe. (It also featured some nice insights into Castle as he was trying to psych himself up for figuring out what happens next.) And a realistic and optimistic ending!

I enjoy angsty stories that work through Rise issues. I am so grateful you are still writing such good stories. Thank you!

Great fic. Loved the dialogue from Castle and Kate at last opening up with her true feelings.

I really liked this. I thought Kate deserved some of Rick's anger, but I also liked that he realized he was also guilty of thinking of himself and not looking at things from her perspective, choosing a time when she was barely able to walk to express his anger - and not doing it gently, either, but lighting into her. I liked that Kate called him back with a text and admitted to him that she was in pain and struggling to get by, and was also open to his help and his love, honest about where she was in terms of being able to receive and reciprocate.
I do think that Kate's dad came to Castle before Montgomery was shot, as opposed to afterwards. (It may be a deleted scene, so hard to say, but the Beckett-Castle argument was before the hangar scene...) That's a minor point, though.
This AU scene would have fit very nicely into canon, I think. It might have made for a less suspenseful season 4 and possibly a less dramatic coming together, but it would have seemed a natural progression, too.

This was really good. I loved Castle letting Kate have it and I wish we could have seen some of that on the show. The only thing that confused me was at the end when Kate was wondering weather or not Castle has nightmares too. Castle made it pretty clear that he was during his tirade when he got to the cabin when he said he woke up screaming and tangled in his sheets wondering where she was. It just seemed like a weird thing for her to wonder about when he already confirmed it.
