Gorgeous, just gorgeous. I love the almost dreamlike style, those little glimpses and images that come together to form a whole. *admires*

Thanks! The rosary is meant, partially, as a meditation tool, so I'm glad some of the feel of actually praying the rosary in the dreamlike style came out. That was a goal of mine. I'm so glad you enjoyed this!

That was really amazing. I loved the glimpses and loved how you worked the rosary prayer in there. I'm excited to see more!

Oh this is something beautiful.

Sweetly curved, bright-eyed, vulnerable and caustic, intelligent and dense, all at the same time - this is her.

I don't think I've ever read a better, more loving description of Brennan.

When he kisses her, it's everything. It's sex and love and hope in the pouring rain. And yet... and yet she runs.

That Sunday, Booth hits his knees, and asks all the saints for their help. If she's the one... then... he could use the assistance.

Ah - that's lovely!!!!

I just adore this - can't wait to see more.

I'm so glad you enjoyed this and took a shot on it! Post-release I realized the concept may be a bit pretentious.

Thank you for a wonderful comment!

I love Booth. He's just so complex. I'm glad you thought this was him!

(I love your icon, by the way. DT never fails to break my damn heart...)

Thanks! Yeah, DT breaks mine as well - in a good way. I'm waiting for Eleven to get it in gear and grab my attention - in any way, shape or form. So far he's falling flat, and I MISS anticipating DW on Saturday nights. :(
