Oh these are very nice indeeed. I especially like the third one; how Bodie's dreams of Ray being alive are the worst. They would be, wouldn't they, when he'd have to wake up to reality afterwards, and face the fact that Ray is no longer with him. :(

Thank you very much.

And yes, I do so agree. Normally my death stories end only one way - with them both dead. I can't write the 'one goes on happily'.

Thanks for reading.

Gosh these are good, but so sad! I can see how they'd not talk about nightmares to each other. And I can really see how, having lost the other, the surviving one would be so ... hopeless. Drabbles work really well for this kind of thing, thanks for posting them.

Thank you so much.

I'm sorry about the sadness. I have a plot bunny with a penchant for death stories *sigh*

I'm so glad they worked for you.

Thank you for reading and commenting.

Woof, well that last one - how heartbreaking it is. Brilliant series of drabbles, but very dark - I know, I remember you saying *g* But well done, very very well done.

[nakeisha]

Thank you, darling.

I'm glad they moved you and you thought they were good.

*Hugs*

Of course sad, but so very lovely, too. And all four could so easily happen.

[nakeisha]

Thank you, so much.

I'm really pleased you found them believable.

My deathfic bunny has been very busy recently *sigh*

These are gorgeous. I love how you manage to drag me into a whole little world so quickly with so few words, the way they're so wistful and repetitive, creating that slow and steady rhythym and making 100 words seem like so much more. I definitely need to go and read something to cheer myself up with now though, lol. :)

[nakeisha]

Thank you so very much.

I'm delighted to hear that these drag you into the world so quickly and that they seem longer.

I hope you found something cheery.

Thank you for reading.
