Thanks to
singletailwhip for the grammar beta! She's a master comma wrangler and error catcher!
Special thanks to Keira for letting me play in her sandbox and her support and beta. I adore the TTB series and I'm so excited to have permission to be a part of it- thank you, Keira!
This fic was inspired by the NCIS:LA episode with the facially scarred Marine finally allowing himself to go home. I kept wondering how in TTB, where physical beauty is so important, a scarred or disfigured person would fare. Could they find love and happiness in spite of their injuries? That little question bloomed into Time Heals. Enjoy! -CJ aka WritinginCT.

thank you
Thank you for sharing this absolutely beautiful story. I've spent the entire morning reading it instead of packing for a trip. Your writing is absolutely beautiful and the emotion in this story had me crying. Again, thank you for sharing this.July 2 2011, 01:28:59 UTC 10 months ago

Time Heals
I really liked this story all the way up to the end. Their personalities, interactions, loving but kinky sex. I liked when you brought Katie into it, and the cameos by Sheppard.The ending disappointed me because I felt like healing their bodies with (magic) Ancient tech implied that there could never be a truly happy ending when they were both scarred. They had imperfect/incomplete bodies, and it seemed sort of ablist, although that's not the exact term. It felt like deus ex machina to make the readers feel better.
I wanted them to have their happy ending and still be damaged. I feel those are the best love stories.

Re: Time Heals
At the same time, if she hadn't included the devices (which are part my 'verse) many people who have read my series would have probably questioned why they weren't used. In fact, when I started reading the story--the first thing I thought was "how" she would eventually include the healing devices Miko repaired in my series.July 22 2011, 02:35:28 UTC 10 months ago
wow
I've just read the whole thing again and it just keeps getting better and better. I love the characters and the relationship they built. It was neat that the alien gizmo that Miko fixed was able to heal their scars, but I truely believe that they would have been just fine without it. I've read your fic in other places (I discovered I had you saved at WWOMB) but this is by far my favorite. Are you going to continue it? I'd love to see Joey meet the folks and Caldwell meet Maria. Thank you for a wonderful story!July 24 2011, 01:44:30 UTC 10 months ago
This was amazing
Is there a file of all chapters together available? I'd like to convert this to Kindle content for reading on the go. There's nothing quite like reading hot porn in the breakroom. ;)September 9 2011, 23:53:40 UTC 8 months ago
Anyway, I love the characters and love the story and you did any amazing job. What else have you got? (rummages around the journal)
