Okay, wow. Where the fuck to start, eh?

I just finally got done reading this after sitting myself down for an hour and almost literally gluing my eyes to the computer screen.

Mike's desperation was utterly heart-breaking, his feelings his thoughts, his actions, were so beautifully portrayed. And your characterzation. wow. That's one thing I admire about authors such as yourself, you put down the character, his thoughts and internal conflicts and stick with it instead of going off course. I also loved the back story you provided. We got to see into their relationship before that first day, where lust had ultimately blurred both of their senses, just in much different ways. Mike, in the sense of taking Billie's words and actions and giving them false meaning and Billie, leading - probably unintentionally - Mike on and feeding to his delusions of love.

Which pretty much all ended up boiling over into nothing but a swirling mass of confusion and false-hope twisting together until the breaking point was finally reached.

And of course, the ending was perfect. Yes, their friendship probably can't be the same as before, but they would try to put it all behind them and move on.

Which is said, here? Kind of? Sort of? Meh?

Mike’s body twitched as the shower started, settling as the soft drops began to fall, roaring through his blood as they washed Billie clean of this, their one last night.

What really got me I think though, is Mike wanting to basically make his mark on Billie Joe but realizing in the end that the bruises, the marks, the scratches that he creates ultimately won’t outlast dedication he has to his family, in this case, in the form of tattoos.

Oh yes, and I apologize for any lack of sense, redundancy, or interpretation I may have presented in this comment. I think I’m still reeling in the after-math of this story XD

Which by the way has to be one of the best things I’ve ever read. And you, my dear, are one of the best writer on CC.

Oh yes, one more apology for avoiding this when you were actually posting it. But, really, that’s just what I get for avoiding fics because they don’t have my favorite pairing. From now on, pairing or not, I’ll be reading anything you write. You're amazing.

Oh and this will definitely be added to my memories.

(Yeah, I think this is the end of my rant.)

Oooo, thanks so much for the lovely comment. I was having a somewhat shitty day, and getting this certainly picked me right up. So yes, thank you so much.

NO worries about lack of coherency/sense. It's always interesting to get reactions when people are still reeling, hehe. And you were right on, I think you covered everything I was trying to get across. Thanks especially for the mentions of characterization, I'm very happy you 'got' Mike and Billie and that their characters were consistent. I feel like the slash-tastic-ness is just that much better if I can get as much of the back story/character development aspects across as possible without weighing everything down... haha but I won't get into that too much. Suffice it to say, I'm soooo glad to hear things came across so well at your end. Woot!

And I totally understand about the non-favorite pairing avoidance- there's so much posted it's hard to get to even the OTP fics. But yes, thanks for reading and coming out with the feedback. There's nothing a writer likes more :) Thanks sooooo much for the compliments!
