I love how the dropping coins showed their relationship coming full circle. Good job! :D

This was lovely! I love your narrative voice, and how you referenced Aida's magnificent themes and lyrics throughout your story, not just the lyrics from the prompt. Very well done!

I like the idea of them finding each other again after their falling out in school... it wasn't too angsty... had felt right that they be older and established and more sure about things when they got back together.

I liked how you make their story evoluate. It makes things realistic. The idea of the coins was brilliant by the way.

I thought this was absolutely wonderful. Definitely one of my faves so far! Your prose is lovely to read and the way in which the timeline dipped back and forth gave it a really nice structure. I adore fics that compare an adult Rose/Scor with a schooltime fling.
