WHOA. That was uncomfortable to read - in a good way, which means it pushed all sorts of buttons and left me with ton of questions. It reminds me of those twisted Star trek alternate universes. While I don't write stuff like this (because I am all about happy endings), I really admire a story that can pull off something like this - it's not that these characters are OOC, they're not - IMO. They seem more like a mirror image of themselves, with same traits arranged in a different, considerably darker way.

Great job! *claps*

This is going to sound dumb, but you don't know how much I needed this feedback from you! *hugs* (Okay, now I am not going to be a scary type person for the rest of my comment)

I've been worried ever since I posted it that I went too far.

Thank you so much! Everything you said was exactly what I was going for. :)

*hugs back* Heh, I think it would take much much more to be too disturbing for me - it may be that my tolerance for stuff like domestic abuse is - uh - bigger? - is that the right word - than average person's. If you want I can explain in more detail through PM. (and did you need this type of feedback from someone, or me in particular? I don't find your comemnt really scary.)

Anyway, I think that not all stories should leave us with the feeling of happy and fuzzy. Not all stories are meant to be like that. Some of them should push buttons - after all, the world we live in isn't always a pleasant place.

Yeah i think you definitely got all of those across, well at least it worked for me. :)

I just needed the type of feedback you gave me from anyone. :)

I also totally agree that not all fic needs to be happy- but I still worried when I posted this one. Then I forgot to put any type of warning on it, and had to be reminded (rightfuly so) to put a warning, and that seemed to start off all my worrying about going to far.

Anyway, thankyou again.

Hehe, fair enough - and I've been worrying about similar stuff myself a couple of times, so I completely understand the feeling.
