Oh my god. I cried so badly.

I was okay(ish) until I read the final line, after about 2 seconds it hit me, and that finished me off for the afternoon.

This was incredibly good. I can't believe how well you identified with Noel + how amazing the link between them and their creation worked... and how devastating it was when it was destroyed. And the pace was spot on, and their relationship was perfect. All of it was just absolutely perfect, and so ridiculously sad.

I've got to stop before I run out of Kleenex.

I've also just realised how stupidly inappropriate my userpic was for this! What can I say. Your achingly good writing distracted me.

That's much better. Even if I'm still sniffling.

Are you kidding? Bunnysuit!Amstell is perfect for any occasion :)

Thank you so much for your comment! It means a great deal to me :) We've been working on this oneshot for quite a while now- it's nice to finally have it posted!

Would you like another box of tissues? I have some spare...

[tattlefruit]

Haha! He's ever so nice, isn't he?

Well the work certainly paid off! It's one of the best oneshots I've read in any case!

It's okay thank you, I resorted to my sleeve in the end, and it was actually quite liberating!

oh. the tissue warning was definetly warranted. i didnt heed it, and now my sweater is all wet.
the last line... fucking hell. this was beautiful and sad and now im crying and can't stop and i loved this. it was very powerful and very sweet. i love the way you two managed to convey so much powerful emotion without saying very much. it wasn't overdrawn or melodramatic. just heart breaking.

Not another wet jumper! Though I suppose that is our fault... apologese :)
I'm really glad it didn't come across as over the top- we were trying to keeep it... real.
Thanks very much for commenting xx

I'm sobbing so much right now. I saw the tissue warning and thought 'oh, no, I'll be fine, I won't actually cry' but by God was I wrong.

Amazing though, really fantastic. I'm sure I'll re-read it sometime and won't cry, now that I know what happens (I can't promise anything mind!) :)

[calistomyth]

You're not the only one who ignores warnings, don't worry :)

Teehee, reread this as many times as you like! As long as I don't have to take credit for any psycological issues you might have later in life as a direct result of that process... xD xx

Another person crying i'm afraid!
I didn't heed the warning but it's ok I found a tissue!

The writing was so beautiful and although it was exceedingly sad it was wonderful to read.

I love how Howard and Vince mix with Noel and Ju, it made it seem so right.

That last conversation between Noel and Ju was touching and real.

I'm thinking about putting a box of tissues next to my computer just in case I ever have similar problems to all you readers... :)

The last conversation was based on my own experiences with a friend... I cried while writing it. I'm glad it worked :)

Thank you xx

[weekendgothgirl]

That may be a good idea, I know I will now lol! =D

Awww, I'm sorry love. It worked really well!

Goodness, not Rufus! :'(
(That rhymed... sorry, kind of ruined the moment there...)
I hope you found some tissues in the end. Thank you so much for commenting xx
