Oh, that is perfect and RIGHT. Heartbreaking and yet, sort of...triumphant? I can't quite come up with the word I want. "Life-affirming" is close too. Anyway, despite my inarticulateness, I adore this, and I want him to have found that peace, in the end.

I loved how it was such an intimate, personal concern that calmed him down.

I'm so glad you liked it, thank you!

This was very good

rustydog August 20 2009, 04:40:44 UTC

Thank you!

Oh GAH that is SO powerful and amazing!

rustydog August 20 2009, 04:41:28 UTC

Wow, thank you! :)

Nice to see such a creative take on the drabble form. You really packed a lot of story in-between the words. It's quite punchy. Oh, what Owen doesn't know. :(

Thank you very much! And oh, Owen. :( Though he did pull it together and save her from the heartbreak, I like to think.

That is gorgeous. It's also a unique use of the drabble format and packs a hell of a lot of emotion into a short fic - even more so because we know what happens to Tosh.

Poor Tosh! Though I think Owen was at least able to "save" her from some emotional pain.

Thank you so much! I enjoyed writing this drabble.
