Gurrrrrgle. Gah.

This totally leaves me incoherent with happiness--I LOVE the way Tim approaches Shiva in this, trying to break her into classifiable parts even though he can't do it perfectly and his TONE is perfect.

I lovelove the last two lines, it's a wonderful wrap-up for the fic and then this line:

because her skills, her cruelty, are precisely what he needs to survive.

Excellent.

I keep saying that Tim is terrifying, but... I just can't step away from that for a second, especially in the context that this fic was written in. Tim and Shiva together are simply a beautiful, terrible thing to behold. I'm really happy that the Tim voice worked - this is actually my first real attempt to capture the boy - and I'm just thrilled that you liked it!

Thank you so much! ♥ <3 ♥

Your Tim voice completely worked for me and Tim and Shiva stroke a happy, vicious love inside me. You did a really great job snagging him.

I friended you, btw, hope you don't mind!

They're entirely too terribly beautiful together. Oh, canon, why do you DO these things to me?

I don't mind in the least! :D *has already reciprocated*

God, that needs to be an icon with pictures of at least thirty different scenarios I can think of off the top of my head.

And hahaha, fear my powers of observation! Yay!

*nods* YES. The DCU wooed me startlingly easily thanks to those sorts of scenarios.
