title: Stopping Here summary: "Make it last, make it important." Bookverse. rating: PG a/n: This is me being late for the Letters prompt at wicked_prompts. Whoops.
Ooohh this is... very interesting indeed. It doesn't start off so dark but it is, there is so much emotion behind everything that's said even if you don't realize it at first. I looooove how you wrote Tibbett! I love how even though he's gone a little insane, he seems to understand the deep stuff better, though it doesn't come out that way to anyone but Elphie (and the reader of course). I hope that makes sense...
At first, I didn't know what to make of it: the style's so disjointed, so confusing. Upon reading it again, I realized- it is Elphaba's mind, it is Tibbett's mind, it is the mess that the entire group of friends has made of their lives. Confused and dizzy and indelicate and nothing like the dreams they once had together.
And yet, in the story, in certain lines, certain descriptions, there is an incongruous beauty- the grace all of them had once, a memory of something beautiful in the tragedies they've each become.
I don't know if that made any sense at all, but suffice to say I loved it.
Aw, thank you so much. I feel like I should say more than "You make me blush so hard" but that's pretty much absolutely true. Thoughtful reviews = epically amazing.

That is such perfect imagery. I loved this. And how it all tied together.
