Wow, powerful. All the more powerful from your use of numbers. Incredible.

Thank you! :D

I didn't think that Lucius would be comfortable with names, and I wanted to leave the abusers' identities unknown. I'm really pleased that you find the fic compelling.

The numbers made it more gripping, pure hate.

Oh marvelllous. So much conveyed so subtly.

And now I'm all bitter and envious of your skill.

I'm so honoured to have been your beta *squee* because I got first dibs on it hehe!

I completely agree with the comments about the numbers making it all the more chilling, the way they are spaced throughout the fic also gives us a sense of time passing too.

Absolutely fabulous, darling!

Shog wanted to know about my reviews for this story, as he agreed, based on the summary, that I wouldn't receive many. I read him yours, and he insisted that you be told I "read it to [him] after [my] last keystroke." *snorts* It always amazes me when something makes the man jealous, but he does like it that I read to him. ;)

*hugs you*

Thank you so much for giving this fic a proper beta, Flic (and you were the only one to do that, you know); every word mattered, and your feedback was incredibly helpful to me. :D

I'm so pleased that you think I've achieved "chilling." *dances*

Yes, this is Dark, but that's appropriate for Lucius's situation. I like the adamant core. That's absolutely right on for his character. I don't care for fluffy Lucius.

I think he'd need something like this to put his world more to rights, and to keep/take what control he could.

Lucius is never Fluffy. What have you heard? From whom have you heard it?

I ask for no particular reason . . . .

Obviously, I agree with your assessment; this pleases me.

*smooches*

I don't refer to anything in particular, but sometimes (especially post-war) Lucius is presented as kind of schmoopy (ew, IMO.)

I like him as someone who will do as he thinks best to achieve what he deems necessary. This may be taking care of his family, or taking care of his ideals, or of himself. He can be quite passionate about what he feels. Just not schmoopy, ya know?

:D

That was so intense; I could actually feel his rage, his need to lash out! A beautifully crafted story.

*so pleased*

Thank you. :D It felt intense as I was writing, so I'm thrilled you experienced the same thing while reading it. *hugs*
