Awwwwwww, Matt. I love Matt. Especially this kind of Matt. All angsty and broken. But Mello will fix him, bastard though he is. Because that's what they do. *nods firmly*

I loved this so much, the mix of speech and story was really good. Because I like to comment on things like that, yup.

Angst!Matt is fuuuuun. XD Poor guy; I love him. XD

And it is TRUE. I subscribe to this philosophy of M/M. o_o

Thank you!! ^^ And I'm actually very glad to hear that, 'cause... it came together in fits and starts, originally, so it's nice to know that it runs all right. ^^

[tierfal]

Oh, have I not? My bad; I thought I had. :|

Thank you! :D lol the wallet = one of my favorite bits. XD

Angst can be nice, in small doses. ^^

This is perfect. I love love LOVE it! Thank you so much, honey.

It was angsty, and sweet, and vicious, and... Perfect.

The mix of speech and story was ever so well done, and I loved the use of the wallet and the headphones to instill an idea of inanimate objects providing a sense of security. I don't know about you, but it is often my posessions that give me sanity and anchor me in the real world, so I love that idea.

I just love the whole thing! ♥

Your Matt and Mello are just so very perfect, too... And the mentions of behavioral issues and psychological disorders (Pavlov! Honey, you mentioned freaking PAVLOV! ILU! ♥) really subtly helped to build the characters up more, but you mentioned them and hinted at them so well that they fitted in with the prose perfectly.

And I know I'm rambling but I love it so much! It's absolutely wonderful - a fabulous birthday present! Thank you so, so much.

Love you so much, sweetie! Thank you ever so much for this! ♥

[tierfal]

Yayy!!!!! ^^ And you're so very welcome! :D

I definitely anchor myself with objects -- and the headphones, for me, are a particular one; as long as I've got a familiar source of music, I can tell myself everything will be okay. XD

Allusions seem to appear without my permission, Exhibit A being Pavlov. XD I'm glad you liked that element of it! :D

AWWW, you are sooooo welcome, darling!! ^^

Love you, too, dear!! *tackles* ♥

I actually kind of had no clue what was going on, BUT I STILL LOVED IT AND COULDN'T STOP READING IT. But the annnnnngst! *wibbles*

[tierfal]

I WOULD EXPLAIN but there are intense spoilers everywhere. It's like a minefield. XD

And the important part is that I am utterly flattered that you found this enjoyable without proper context. THANK YOU, BB! ^^;

[crazy_ryzz]

Ooooohm, that was love.
I haven`t read M/M lately and now I just out of the blue wanted to read one. Aaaand gosh, I love this, all the symbolism and such. Angst!Matt is always sad but awesome to read, I like him like that. And Mello... oomh, tasty bastard, really.

I'm glad you enjoyed it! :D The birthday girl wanted angsty Matt, so I delivered! XD

He is a tasty bastard, isn't he? XD

Thank you!! ^^
