Can I just say that this was extraordinary? All the emotions and just... everything.

Thank you very much! :D

This is absolutely wonderful. I love the warmth that builds through the whole piece.

Aww, thank you! I'm so glad you enjoyed it!

...masterpiece, dear, masterpiece. You're so good at putting people through absolute HELL and then making it all right again. I know how hard this one was (these two were :D) but it was worth it. Thank you for pulling through!

♥ !!

Bwah! I know right? It's a reflection of reality - considering the hell I put YOU through as I was working on it/them. *grin* I'm glad that the resulting angst and comfort were satisfying!

This was absolutely magnificent. Mag.Ni.Fique. (starting with the summary... the idea that the former inventor gave himself the name Glitch is inspired.)

Details.... Cain's scarred fingertips... Raw petting DG's hair.... Cain jumping the first time Glitch touched him after he was blind.... Glitch putting Cain's hand on his zippered scalp.... Glitch's fingers riffling about in Cain's hair... the dog's soft fur...the whole thing was just a tactile marvel. Of course Glitch's loyalty through this whole thing was incredible... you know one of my favorite moments was when he and Shamira settle in together to wait while Cain sleeps.

Yeah, and this one made me cry...when Raw embraced Glitch, and knew how much the contact had meant to him.
I loved the specially modified cabin, too, with all the little labels, and the garden flowers and herbs chosen for their scents and shapes, and Cain choosing the thyme, and bringing Glitch a winter rose.

Awesome.

Oooh thank you, sweetie!! *HUGS*

Yes, yes - the tactile thing. It was absolutely necessary for this piece, especially the parts from Cain's perspective. Trying to imagine his worldview in those scenes, relying on all his other senses to piece together his surroundings. I've always been a big fan of touch anyway, but this scenario was an excellent excuse to really explore it.

I'm so happy that you enjoyed it and of course, you always manage to pinpoint the most important bits! :D

I had a thoroughly rotten day at work today and I came home and began reading this ... and I was completely transported. You took me out of myself into another world and made me believe it was real until I lived and breathed and sorrowed and rejoiced with the characters. Thank you so very, very much.

Oh, man. *hugs* That is such a beautiful compliment and it completely made my day. I can't tell you how much it pleases me that I was able to provide something so entertaining, even for just a short while. You're very welcome - after all, it's you guys who keep me going and who I keep writing for! :D

Thank you so much for this wonderful comment!!!
