Yikes! Poor woobie Ten. He's one hell of a messed up puppy, and having the hallucination definitely didn't help.

[goldy_dollar]

Yeah, at certain points while writing this, a part of my brain was like "OMFG, WHAT AM I DOING. TEN IS IN NO STATE FOR THIS KIND OF TORTURE." But then, he didn't burn anything at the end, so I like to think that Rose soothed him in an odd sort of way. XD

Oh, what are you doing to me! I all had my hopes up.

[goldy_dollar]

Aww, sorry. :( I hope the title would be a bit of a clue! Poor, poor Ten.

THIS IS SO AMAZING. Seriously, the ache that he knows it isn't true, but he can't help himself - and then his rage...I LOVE IT. Absolutely brilliant.

[goldy_dollar]

Thanks! I felt a few nerves before posting this because it's so angsty and unlike what I usually write, so I'm so glad that you like it!

[matchlightfire]

Dude. This blew me away, seriously. Never be nervous if you're posting words this brilliant;) And I LOVE the angst - not that I don't enjoy fluff and love and happiness, but there's something that just HOOKS me with pain and suffering. Beautiful job!

Oh man, that was so sad!
I love the line where he 'suspects' that he has gone bonkers.

[goldy_dollar]

Thanks!

And HEE. Yeah, Ten. There's not really any 'suspects' going on here. XD

[dashafeather]

Oh, that was wondeful. Poor Ten, just can't catch a break.
That was seriously good stuff though. Well done.

[goldy_dollar]

Poor Ten, indeed. As if things weren't bad enough for him.

Thank you! :D
