I'm feeling drained, but I'm nearly done. I feel like Hermione, how do you even breach the subject after recognizing how tricked and used you've been? Where can you start? What can you expect to gain? How can you move on afterwards? How do you forgive yourself, your husband, Draco? All, the while you have a life that you've built on top of cards. It's just so underhanded and controlling and the freedom means nothing. And then it's like your life, everything you've gone through is nil. It's just your past deteriorate and your dreams disintegrate into dust particles.
*sighs* That's it, or at least that is mostly it. It's a very numbing experiencing and when the limbs wake up-you make the best of it. Well Amelie, thank you so much for writing such a beautiful and moving piece. I feel like I've gotten a cathartic release even though it recalled some painful times in my life. I do wonder what your inspiration was and I hope you continue to write dramione. Oddly, you remind me of my BF as you both have a way with words and storytelling that always grips me for better or worst.
Kansol, your review made me feel as though I were waking up to Christmas come early. You are ridiculous and amazing and you have NO IDEA how much it warmed my heart to read this wonderful and perfect review! It means so, so much to me that you took the time and effort to write such a thoughtful response to each part of this tiny ficlet (the story was so short, I think your word count might rival my own!); and I absolutely loved reading about your reaction. Rest assured that there is ZERO need for you to apologize for giving me a play-by-play: in fact, it was a writer's dream come true to read this breakdown of your thoughts... like a sneak peek into a reader's mind. =)
I'm truly flattered that you found the story so moving (cathartic, even!), and I can't thank you enough for your far-too-kind words. <3 ::sends much, much love your way!::
I don't like choices. So no. Or yes. If you ever archive it, then I'll find out, but otherwise...oh-this is hard. Eesh. OK, no. You know what? Just f*** it, yes.
Convention says yes, but I sort of like it without. One of my favorite things was the imagery the last line conjured up and how I really had to think about 'dust.' With a title present, 'dust' will already be on my mind.
What about if you put the title at the end? Or is that too weird?
