I didn't *think* that I should like this. I mean, Kirsten/Ryan, squicky and wrong and whatever.

But I did.

I really, really did.

It's vague enough and hurt enough and in the end it goes back to rights the way it should be. You've captured that perfect moment, though, made me forget for a second about Sandy and Seth, and did it beautifully. Lovely.

You pretty much summed up my reaction while writing it. I was so sure it was wrong, I knew it was wrong, yet when I got to the end of it, I thought it worked.

Thank you! I was trying just to catch the 'fall' of Kirsten, a moment of weakness, but nothing more than that. And out of it comes an understanding between the characters.

And I totally set up potential for a Ryan/Seth sequel. *g*

I never read this before today and it says you wrote it for me. It's awesome. It's just so damned sad! Ryan's so broken and Kirsten wants to be a mother to him...sigh. I love your Kirsten, the voice you've chosen for her and it's clear that she just wants to help Ryan because he's so damned sad. He can't sleep at his apartment, he can't sleep in the poolhouse, he just wants to be close to someone. They are kindred spirits, only wanting the people they care about to stop hurting and the kiss...there are no words. So. Damned. Sad.

It's beautiful.

Oh, I'm so happy you liked it. When I had posted it and got no response, I totally thought I had ticked you off.

I really have to thank you for the challenge, it just got my creative juices flowing, so to speak.

Aww. When I was working out characterization, one thing was clear to me: Kirsten and Ryan are alike in many ways. So I tried as best as I could, to explore that angle.

Thank you for the feedback, it truly made my day.
