This was amazing. Phenomenally good - it even brought me out of lurkerdom. I just...the rhythm was stunning - it flowed and wound around on itself and wrapped the reader inside the words; the description was flawless and dark and seductive, with a hint of some innate hunger; the exchanges and dialogue fitted perfectly and...guh. I don't quite know how to put it.

I especially loved this exhange:

A breeze rattles through and the house moans at their backs. It sounds ready to fall down any second, as if the sudden burst of the lighthouse's strobe will be enough to topple it over. Sam stretches out on his back, pillowing his arms behind his head. "There's no moon," he says. "Or stars."

Lucifer follows him down with a sigh, though he stays on his side facing Sam instead of lying flat. He moves in Sam's periphery, bending to look up at the blank slate of sky that's too solid and limitless to be real. "Guess you forgot to hang them."

Sam smiles, just briefly, smiles at the simplicity of the words. Smiles at the things the devil feeds him in his dreams.

The "forgot to hang them" bit made me catch my breath and go yes because that was exactly perfect as a response. And the repetition of the word "smiles" three times worked really well in the last line of it, I think; especially the way it's like he knows how dangerous this is but he can't help but be sucked into it. The "feeds" worked brilliantly, too, although I can't work out why just yet.

The touch about the sky being too solid and limitless to be real added just this completely surreal effect to the fic that makes it just that bit magical and perfect in its darkness.

And this one:

It tastes bitter and herbal from the magnolia sprig, and Sam only remembers after the fact that magnolia is poisonous, but it's not enough to make him pull away.

I love the way it's got that threatening undertone and a perfect analogy for the whole Sam/Lucifer relationship.

Thankyou so much for writing this fic; going in my bookmarks and going to my recs. ♥ ♥ ♥

I brought you out of lurkerdom? \o/ *fistbump*

Oh man, this comment = my day being totally made. I'm very happy everything worked for you and that it made you catch your breath and sort of think about things. That's exactly what I was going for, so it makes me inexplicably happy that you pointed that out.

Again, really - thank you so much! ♥
