lol; i thought I was gonna see kate/sun slash!!! :D:D still; very cool idea i always thought Sun was gonna get Jack back for leaving Jin behind, nice to see it in vid form! not sure i understood the rest tho, it was kinda more Jate AU than Kate/Sun, not to say i didnt love it! but at the end was that Kate sort of forgiving Sun for killing Jack? just want to be sure ;] awesome to see another AU from you Samara! :D:D

Thanks, Kat!

You really thought it was gonna be slash?!!!

[spoiler:47e6d2e1e1]I'm not sure how well I got it across, but I wanted to explore the idea that if Sun had killed Jack, she'd be putting Kate in the same position that she was in after Jin's death...

So I doubt Kate had coffee in mind when she went to visit her... [/spoiler:47e6d2e1e1]

lol; yeah ive been slash vidding a lot lately; its just in my head atm ;]

[spoiler:68d91a9ede]ooohhh, ok I was actually waiting on a gunshot perhaps but i figured she had Aaron there; but maybe she didnt? So Kate was getting revenge too? Nice ;] I think it was Sun's smile that threw me off, lol :D[/spoiler:68d91a9ede]

[spoiler:b747f0ba15]A gunshot! That's actually an awesome idea! I think I'm gonna need you to beta my vids...

I decided to leave it ambiguous rather than manip Kate killing Sun, just because to me, the important part is this cycle of death they're trapped in...

Plus you're right! Aaron is there! She has to send him away first! [/spoiler:b747f0ba15]

Cool AU....so let me see if I understand this..Sun kills Jack so Kate decides to get revenge right b/c it seemed like she packed a gun with and then went to go visit Sun....I was expecting a gunshot once it went to black so I wasn't sure if she was actually there to kill her. Thats what it seemed like though b/c I don't know how she could forgive her for something like that and why wasn't Sun in jail for what she did? ooooo unless Kate was in on it too...lol but doesn't make sense either...lol oh I should probably go read your spoiler comment.. brb.

Thanks for your comments guys.

Kat and Nikki, I took your advice and made an alternate version -- the link is at the bottom. Hopefully it's less confusing.

As for a sequel, I'll think about it, but I really don't feel like this is one of my better vids, so maybe it's better to just move on?

[nikkimonique]

ooo yay! I like the new ending! It give it the closure I think it was missing...unless you had put ...To Be Continued once she showed up at her door...that would have worked well too!

This was awesome, Sam! I don't know why people thought it was hard to follow... I thought it was really easy to follow and obvious what was going on. At least, I had no trouble following it.

[spoiler:c176d9416c]You showed Jack get murdered by Sun, Kate heartbroken and in shock, she had a nightmare about it, then went to kill Sun because she wants revenge. She wouldn't do it with Aaron right there, but it was obvious that that was her eventual plan. [/spoiler:c176d9416c]

I loved the hospital scene the most, right after Jack gets shot, and the bit with him saying "if anything happens to me..." etc. It was so sad and sweet, cuz he died right after.

Great job! Gold from me.

[loudpaw]

That was so cool!!! I loved every miniute of it! And if you could refresh my memory please...did Aaron actually say 'Choo Choo' or did you use a sound clip of it? 'cause tat was so damn cute -squee- x3

[nikkimonique]

LOL y eah he does say that b/c I used that scene in won of my AUs recently.
