That was really good, wonderful storyline and you did an amazing job with the audio.

Emma, Thanks! I'm glad you enjoyed the audio b/c it got kind of frustrating after awhile. I've never made an AU with this much manipped audio before.

Sophie, I'm glad you enjoyed the storyline. I've been wanting something of this nature to happen on the show and got tired of waiting so I decided to create it myself.

Kat, I know the ending is so sad, and I almost made a Jate ending but it seems most my AUs end in Jate so I decided to have a Skate ending for once.

Wow! This AU was amazing, Nikki! You used a very nice song, that was constant, and it was really good for audio.

The whole storyline to begin, was really awesome, and it showed the whole way through in your video. All of the scenes with Juliet and Kate really seemed real, and so did every other part, but the Juliet parts stuck out to me.

This was such a great AU Nikki you always wow me with your AU's, this was one was my favorite.

Okay... loved it. This music is really great and definitely should have been used, because I've been waiting for a LOST vid set to this song. (Ever since I saw Elephant Man and cried my eyes out, I've wanted to use it...

.) Anyway, it was a lovely video that ended well for Skate, so that's always a plus in my book. Your manipulations were well done, and I loved the dialog.

Except of course, for the "I love you" to Jack. Why won't you just admit you're a Jater? All of your vids are partially Jate, even your Skate vids involve Kate missing Jack and regretting her choice of Sawyer!

You are such a Jater.

But I love you and all your stuff anyway!!!!

Ooh, Nikki! That was really good, and the audio worked so well!

Freckles-- LOL okay okay, I'm a Jater ...I will admit it but.....that being said I am also a Skater. I love them both. They are both so great together. And....I almost ended this one Jate but then I thought of you and how all my vids usually end up with a happy Jate ending...so.. I thought I'd end it in Skate for a change! Glad you enjoyed it, despite the Jate stuff that I snuck in...haha

Kait - Thanks sweetie! I'm happy you enjoyed the audio!

Elyse - Thanks! I'm so happy everyone is commenting about the dialog and audio!

Great video Nikki

The audio rocked and was really believeable

Great stuff really enjoyed your video

Loved the ending

OMFG! I loved this. It was so tragic and yet also happy. I LOVED the bits where Juliet was explaining how she was gonna die and when Jack and Juliet find her all nausea-ey. I never would have thought of that. Tres clever! My Jater heart yearns for a Jate happy ending but I can still appreciate the Skatey-cuteness of this ending.

Thanks Freya and Charlie! Glad you both enjoyed it!
I had so much fun making this one even if the audio was a bit of a pain.

That was really cool Nikki. I loved how you made it a happy Skate ending. A lot of AU triangle vids end up with Jate together but you mixed it up really well and the scenes were very believable.
