Holy shit this fic took me, by my standards, absolutely forever to write. It's not a matter of wordcount. All of my musings about writing came from writing this. It's like- one of those experiences that make you realise how utterly inadequate you are as a writer.
Seriously. I'm not even kidding.
Huge, huge, huge thanks to

But I have also read Noalinnea's comment.... and she has picked out all the bits I adored... felt, cried over, hurt for, denied in me, wiped tears that are even now dripping into my keyboard. I couldn't hardly write coherently when I read at first... so you get one liners from me. I'm scared of pouring it all out at you... And all the points about Nikolaj... too big, too broad... and that gut sickening crawling knowledge it isn't ...him! Oh damn you Evo... and them... They will always break my heart, even when you have them (spoiler here) makingup and loving at the end... I STILL WANT TO CRY FROM LOVE!!!

Don't be afraid of telling me what you think, honestly! I might not agree, but I'm always here to listen, and it makes me very, very happy to hear what you think of what I write. 8D I'm a feedback whore, really. /hugs

Yet there still is hope then and even though I had already read what happens on Christmas Eve I, too, was still hoping (completely irrational given what I prompted) there would be a way.
It's not irrational, because that was what I was going for. That's how Sean felt in that situation, over and over, just that thread of hope, of just maybe things will be better this time, that they will go back to what they were before, when Viggo looked at him and him alone. I'm just so goddamn happy that you caught it and you felt the same way. /hugs
I was a little worried because your own fics tend to be a lot sweeter than this, and this is really a lot about the ugly side of human relationships. How people take their loved ones for granted, how passive aggressive ( ... )

I have only heard of Melancholia from von Trier, I think. But my favourite movies are the ugly, gorey ones. I'm not a good person to talk to with visual mediums - I usually don't feel anything about them. It's part of why I adore the movies that do make me feel something so, so much. =X Also, I don't know, my fics tend to be really forceful in terms of emotions - I don't think I've written anything with characters who are as apathetic as I am most of the time. I think I just pour out all my emotions to them. 8D
