So, okay, I read "On A Whim" and you mentioned your predictability in characters, and I thought, from the POV, that perhaps you meant Pike, and I was trying so hard not to get my hopes up, but here again we've got another kickass, hurting, confused, damaged Pike, and wow, I love what you did with him here. And Kirk -- his inability to take no for an answer is going to get him that broken nose one of these days, but apparently not this day.
