Love it, you know I love everything you write. As always you manage to cram so much meaning into so few words - so efficient, economical, a true master of the written word!

LOL - too stalkery / mutual admiration society of me?

I could see this as a snapshot fic if you ever decided to extend it - you know, what happens on her 21st, 25th, 30th, 50th birthdays. Escalation only in the most deliciously naughty sense, of course.

oooh, you read this at work? scandalous! actually, im flattered.

and of course it wasnt too stalkery. i think you and i need to just accept our mutual fangirlage and not worry :)

ugh, why must you give me delicious ideas? mmm. paire.

I really like this! I didn't think it angsty or depressing, but I did find it a little distressing that Claire's smoking, has a fake ID, and is known as Party Animal because I don't think that type of behaviour is ok just because some people go through it growing up :) It's not the fact that Claire's growing and becoming her own person that's worrying here, but the ways in which she chooses to do so, which are, I think, self-destructive.

But it's good to see that she still asks Peter for the same birthday present after she's gone through all of these changes; it's good to know that some important aspects of her character remain true :)

Oh, and good for Peter for stepping up and kissing her properly!

[sinverguenza]

oh she's absolutely self-destructive. and its not really okay, though i do think claire would be more self-destructive than most simply because she knows she CAN be. i see it as claire's way of asserting her independence.

or maybe thats just me - i was pretty self-destructive at that age too, lol.

and yes! i love it when peter steps up. he can be so emo.

This is absolutely wonderful. I love the tone you used throughout--it really conveyed a sense of change and loneliness.

He wishes she still had her curls, though.

That line made me incredibly sad, for some reason. I think it's because I would kill someone for her hair, and the thought that she would change it shows how much she's changed.

I have to say again that this was amazing. It's definitely going in my memories.

[sinverguenza]

oh, well thank you so much :) i'm really glad that you liked this so much. and i adore claire's hair too - that line made me sad to even write it, heh.

also, icon love <3
