I really don't mind expanding on my thinking process but you might regret asking because I have a tendency to ramble, haha :D Don't call yourself simple-minded - I honestly doubt that most people would really understand what went through Kame's mind anyway. This fic is a bit tricky because A LOT is going on with Kame but you never get his POV and to be perfectly honest, Jin never truly understands some things about him. He's tricky.
I'm not sure if you could say that the separation was absolutely necessary for them - it's just how things happened to play out. Things really weren't working out for them at first. Their life situations just weren't compatible and neither one of them was willing to make certain sacrifices or figure out if they could have some kind of a compromise that would work for both of them. Also, to be honest, I don't think they were certain if it'd even be worth the trouble or not. The world is full of people, they could've found someone more compatible for

Anyway, yeah, a lot of stuff. That's what happens when you happen to spend over a year constructing one fic, I have way too much back story and after story and snippets in between that never quite fit into the fic. And yes! The Tumblr-snippet. There's actually three more, I thought I'd post them every few days and in the end link the stuff on my Livejournal. All of them are from Kame's POV because I was honestly a bit worried that he comes off as an unreasonable asshole in the fic. That's what you get for having emotionally damaged characters as anything but your main character... So yeah, if you're interested, keep an eye on Tumblr ;)
I'm glad you liked the fic! :D I really appreciated your comment~
Thank you for taking the time to answer my question. It has broaden my mind :">
YAY to all Kame POV ficlets <3 I really want to read from his side. Before their break up, he was so wound up, so wrecked, so desperate that even Jin's deep affection could not save him. Then I realize 'Ah only he can save himself'.
Thank you about the soundtrack. I love it <3 All the songs are so gentle :D
I think it's a pretty important thing for people to learn, though. We often talk about people who help us through things and all, but somehow it seems like a large number of people don't understand that they can't be saved without fighting things themselves. I know that I wouldn't have pulled through with some things in my life without growing a spine and actually battling it out, and I know when it comes to a few friends mine, I can do everything within my power but I can't heal them if they won't work for it themselves. Sadly it just isn't going to happen.
I'm glad you enjoy the soundtrack, it's been reshaping itself for about six months :'D
