the past is beautiful like the darkness between the fireflies.

Unsent, by nos4a2no9.
Wilby Wonderful | Duck MacDonald/Dan Jarvis, Dan/Other, Duck/Other | NC-17 | ~ 34,000 words
Warnings: Discussion of depression and non-con. The non-con event takes place many decades before this story.
Follows my previous Wilby story Quiet in Drowning, but it’s not necessary to read the earlier fic first in order to understand this one, if I’ve done my job correctly. - Post movie Dan moves in with Duck.

-- > When I saw that nos4a2no9 had written a sequel Quiet in Drowning for the DS/6degrees Big Bang I was all aflutter. Mainly for three reasons:
1. Fic by nos4a2no9 is always a treat.
2. Long Wilby Wonderful stories are rare and a wonderful thing.
3. Sequel to Quiet in Drowning!

Quiet in Drowning isn't an easy story to read, and it nearly broke my heart. Nevertheless it is an excellent written story with great characterization. It's gorgeous.

Unsent is even better written, imho. It's a truly beautiful story, which takes the events in Quiet in Drowning and from the movie and moves on from there. Love the slow progression of Dan and Duck's relationship. And all the characters are brightly drawn too.
