Oh my god, of course. Of course it would happen like this. Any child of Sam's would be caught up in his bonkers life. I can't believe I hadn't thought of that.
And his forward-thinking attitudes becoming a barrier between him and Annie, oh gosh. So true.
And you called her Lucy. And there's a red diary like the red phonebox instead of blue. ILY.
"Don't you have one? Is she nicer?" Oh, honey, yes she is. So much.
Having to worry about her going out with his old mates, when he knows exactly what they were like, and everyone just thinking he's being overprotective. Poor Sammmm.
"You convinced Mum about Vanessa -- makes you all right in my book." ♥
"That's when you're supposed to tell someone, 'stead of keeping it to your own bloody self, letting it fester, eat you alive." GENE. OH GOD GENE NO SWEETHEART.
2006!Sam's snappishness before he remembers he's a human being, for 0.2 seconds. Perfectly in character.
He smells so clean. Like fresh laundry and sunshine. Tears. Blurring screen. As I read.
THANK YOU THANK YOU THANK YOU AND DON'T EVER APOLOGISE FOR ANYTHING I'M SO LUCKY I GOT YOU
AHHHH you fill my heart and soul with so much warmth. ;; ♥ And LOL, I actually didn't realize the possible reference "Lucy" might imply until I was already halfway through the fic, but... YOU'RE RIGHT. PROBABLY SUBCONSCIOUS ON MY PART? LOL.
Thank you for all of the kind comments and just augh flailing at you liking it so much and picking up on all the themes and aspects I was worried might get lost. Your prompt inspired an honest-to-god lightbulb moment when I read it, so I was extremely anxious when this thing went far over the due date and... I'M JUST SO GLAD I FINALLY GOT IT OUT FOR YOU.
But yes. You're far too kind, as always -- thank you so much for giving me the opportunity to write this (and the patience to finish)! ♥
