O...... M....... G........

This is the most amazingly beautiful articulate exquisite poetic sublime piece I've read in a long time. I don't know where to start...

"but stamina is a competition even when it isn't. "
"makes him wonder if his counterpart gets laid just as much on the other side of destiny."
"In some vague corner of his head not overtaken by the biology, he wonders if he is being indulged the name of consolation for all the sufferings that are yet to come, wounds which remain uncharted to the young, scars that are carried in another galaxy."
" he feels at home for the first time in a place without a warp engine. .........The silence swallows them whole and he doesn't fight the loneliness when it catches up to him this time."

I am moved to absolute astonishment at the beauty throughout.... I am otherwise speechless.

omg i am so flattered that you took the time to pimp this in another comm, lol! you just made my day. thank you so much for being so kind, it honestly means the world to me :)

everything you quoted here has been shuffled around and re-written at least half a dozen times, so, i'm super glad that you like them.

You're welcome!!! I'm willing to risk getting into trouble on that comm. *probably will, but heh..he doesn't care*

It's an outstandingly crafted piece and touches 'the other' at so many points. I've passed it on to others whose comments were "Wow... speechless." and "Oh HOLY hell. wow."

I've read it again and it's just breathtaking, it does weird stuff to my brain, but in a good way. *grins*

Wow. Hot and beautifully written. I like that the younger Jim asks about their dad first -- of course he would.

thank you for reading and commenting!

heh, well, that's one thing they know for sure that they have in common. what is there to be done when you meet someone who you know is just as alone as you are?
