I... I'm speechless. This is so beautiful. *____________________*

I love love love love love it.

I love your grand metaphor with penance and sin, especially comparison with Judas. I love Nash's voice here. I love how you comment about external POVs about their relationship.

I LOVE YOU TOO, KIRSTEN.

IDK even what got into me last night, I just sat down to play some Tetris had suddenly my brain was like "Nash has feeeeeelings write them down!"

I can never sit down with the intention of writing something, it just has to ~hit me. To be perfectly honest, you are such an amazing writer that I struggled with even posting this here because I AM SOMEWHAT INTIMIDATED BY YOUR AWESOME.

I am so happy that you liked it, I FEEL VALIDATED. And it's a good feeling, indeed.

Yes, we can all get married. Pooly marriage. :P
