This is beautiful and lovely and wonderful and you already know what I think, but I'll say it again! I love your imagery, and how emotional said imagery is, if that makes sense.

I think this might be my favourite section:

February blurs into March and with the new month comes rain. It slides down the panes of the Greenhouses and into the gutters where it is channelled into large barrels. Pansy turns the tap at the bottom, measures out the same quantity ten times and pours it into each of her test pots. Returning one last time she sees Susan feeling the dampness of the soil in one of her pots then carefully dripping in a bit more water.

“That’s hardly scientific,” Pansy says scornfully.

Susan looks up in surprise. “No,” she agrees. “It’s not.” Then she smiles and moves on to the next pot. Pansy feels a bubbling irritation that she can’t quite dispel. It should be nothing to her if Susan Bones wants to do her own thing, but she feels personally offended.The first two sentences, I can almost smell the rain they're so perfect. *_

:">! You've made my morning, which I suspect you already know, but oh. Thank you so much. :x

I like that section too. :">

This makes three Pansy fics I've written now! I think she's growing on me.

♥!

Thank you! :) Pansy is a lot of fun to write.

I'm very fond of that bit, so I'm glad you picked it out. ♥

Wow; what a brilliant, breathtaking read. I loved your characterization of Pansy (and Susan, but Pansy really stood out to me), and I love the way you didn't let anything develop in a physical sense between the two. The last line is just... skghsgkh perfect. ♥

*adding to memories*

ooh! thanks for letting me know :D

:">! I was unsure about the ending so I'm relieved to hear it works! Thank you for the lovely comment. ♥

I know this was a Susan fic, but Pansy's the star in this one. You have her down to a tee and it really shows at the end. Beautifully done, imagery is top notch.

Oh, it was definitely a Pansy fic - I just thought that since Susan was in it, I might as well pimp my community. ;) Thanks for your comment!

I have to agree...your Pansy is really very, very good. Nice characterization!

[holidayonice]

Thank you! :D
