Have I ever told you that I love your writing? This fic is absolutely lovely and perfect is every way. I can't convey how much I heart this story! <3

Wow, thank you so much! I'm really glad you like it.

I loved the little glimpses we got of their developing relationship. Gorgeous fic.

Thank you! :)

oh god I LOVE IT.

i don't know what i was expecting but this is totally right up my alley.

i love the lack of capitalization so much, you have no idea. and the structure. and the sparseness of the prose. and the rhythm, the dream-like rhythm of the writing is just so fitting.

and oh i have such a soft spot for confused!Morgana and teasing!Nimueh.

I love this part so friggin much:

“who are you?”

her voice is quiet and curious, and she’s pleased with how it doesn’t waver.

“all in due time, morgana,” says the other woman in response.

it strikes morgana as colossally unfair that this woman knows her name.

Thanks you so much for writing this. it's pretty much what i was hoping for when i requested Morgana/Nimueh. ♥

Yay! It makes me really happy to hear that you enjoyed this! :)

As for that scene, it just seemed like something Nimueh would intentionally do. She'd know Morgana's name from the get-go, then slip it into the conversation like that. XD.

Thanks for presenting me with this wonderful pairing - I'm glad I had a chance to write them!

Morgana/Nimueh is fierce! Thanks for writing this lovely fic! :-)

They are, haha! It makes me sad that there's not more out there with them.

Thank you!
