Daaaaaaaaaaaaaamn
So that last section may have made me cry. A little. Sort of. UGH F U
This is SO SO amazing.
How do you do this?
Damn.

I don't know. It's like Rosie was speaking to me. /Linden.

Thank you! I'm so glad I made you cry! (That's not as sadistic as it sounds, I promise.)

[crickets]

♥ Thank you so much!

and I'm super glad if there are only four people who watch The Killing, they ship the things I do on this show

RIGHT? That can make all the difference!

Don't fight it, just tear up. Haha.

I LOVE THIS.

A LOT. LIKE A LOT, A LOT.

It's so tragic and gorgeous, just...ROSIE. I love how you took what we know from canon and painted such a fully realized portrait of Rosie (and Rosie/Alexi). I want to quote the whole thing back at you, but I'm going to go with these two bits:

So maybe Rosie always knew.

Deep down.

That Stan wasn't her father?

This reminded me so much of the way Winslow constructed sentences in Savages. This whole fic has such a great flow to it. That passage it short, but it packs a hell of a punch.

Do you wanna know a secret?

Alexi has secrets of his own.

Plenty of them.

"I do," he answers. "Tell me."

*clutches chest*

You are trying to kill me with emotions. Those poor kids. God. It's just so beautiful and hurty. I really love this ship. <3

Thank you so much for writing this for me! It's amazing. You're amazing. And this fic is totally going to be in the back of my mind when I watch the finale which is going to resort in even more than my usual amount of crazy person tears, jsyk.

This reminded me so much of the way Winslow constructed sentences in Savages.

Oh my gosh I take that as a high compliment. That BOOK is written in a much more "fic-like" manner than anything I've ever READ and it was just so brilliant. So for you to compare what I've done to that? I'm blushing, haha.

I really am trying to kill you with emotions. I almost called this fic "kill ozmissage with emotions" but then I changed my mind last minute. ;) HOPEFULLY I ACCOMPLISHED MY GOAL THOUGH. (I think that literally means I wish you were dead, which is not at all what I mean to say! Figuratively! Figuratively!)

I am so nervous/excited about the finale! SO NERVOUS!

ETA: I'm just so happy you liked this! I really was pleased with the way it turn out, and (full disclosure) I totally made myself cry when writing it. LOL. I can honestly say I don't think that's ever happened before. Haha.
