Thank you so much for writing this, I've been desperate for Pike/Sarek; I think that they much in common.

I think that you handled the prompt adeptly. The tone is as subdued as needs be for being so close in time to their losses, and is also quite in character.

I especially like the touches about Amanda, what she would think and do and choose. That was really nice.

And I agree, I think that while it feels complete, there is room for more if you so choose.
