This is me trying to catch up at least with the writing for the luau. Sorry for the spamming, I have at least two fics to post now and maybe I'll have more later tonight. Actually, I'm sure I'll have more, but bear with me.

Anyway, this was so gorgeous. I'd never thought about a pre-crash encounter through dreams, but this works beautifully. You manage to convey a really palpable sense of reaching---that Boone is reaching to try to understand the dream each time, and how it becomes more and mor emeantingful each time... and then also the feeling that he's cracking up for having these dreams. And I love how you compare it to that computer game, too. I don't know why.
“Did you ever wonder if fate had something in store for you?”
“Not really.”
This part was my favorite of the whole thing. Boone's always been my favorite character (after Sayid), so I always love him in any story, but I really love the way you've written Jacob here. SO SEXY! But also, wise and mystical and good and calm and all the things we saw on screen that made me fall in love with him. This is fabulous. I didn't deserve it. Thank you so much.

LOOK AT THE COINCIDENCE, Sayid always was my favorite character after Boone. *high fives* And omg seriously, I didn't deserve such amazing fb. ♥ I'm so happy you liked it!
And HA, well, if it was there because I was supposed to catch the bait I'm much glad I did, but if you give Boone in the prompts you're tempting me already. ;)
I'm really happy that the concept worked for you, I kinda thought it could have been interesting that they'd meet pre-crash (and well, if the island demanded poor Boone there must have been a reason.. *glares*). And much glad that the Myst thing worked because I was wanting to compare it with Lost in fic for ages but I never got the occasion and I can kind of imagine Boone doing that. It's so awesome to hear you liked how I wrote Jacob, too! I have to say that I'm having fun with him lately, but he's such a good character. ♥ Thanks so much again and much glad you liked it!!
