I've been reading/crying along.
You're killing me with the well-written angst!

Thanks for that! I really need some LJ love to get me to the finish line on this one. I'm weeping along too, believe me:(

This whole story [hell, the whole series] has been beyond brilliant but this chapter is so brutally eloquent and fraught with emotion. The only reason I’m not totally soggy from crying is that I couldn’t wait until I got home to read this and am sitting at my desk at work. [I should know better than to check for story alerts while on the clock.] I fully intend to re-read this the minute I’m home and enjoy a good cry. Then I am going to brew a cup of PG Tips, lay out some sacrificial chocolate [dark, of course] and offer up a little prayer to the fan fic gods, asking for a quick posting of the next chapter and that it’s intensely passionate and delightfully lengthy.

You are making me so happy! I love that you are feeling this chapter, it was intense to write. Teardrops on my keyboard and all that :( Have a little nibble of that chocolate for me as a virtual snack. Thanks for reading, for sharing your kind praise, and for supporting this story <3

Yes, hope is shining through. Our boys are all good hearted and despite all they have been through, quite strong. And shall be ever stronger. More soon:)
