Just lovely and so evocative of the seasons imagery...well-done and so very A/R :-)

Thanks.

I just love how you've framed this! The passing of time during their relationship, occurring within the passing of time of a day, month, season, it's beautifully done. :D

I especially loved this line:

He had decided to cast her out and bury himself in the stone of command.

The President knew how to deal with the Admiral. Laura didn't want to have to manage Bill.

Dangerous. Distracting. People close to you often were.

GUH. That hit me right in the heart. Well done. :D

[marzipanilla]

Heh, thanks.

Format is really just that of the original work. Glad that passage stood out to you!

Love the original and love this. There's something very "classic A/R" about it.

The surface might have been bare, but old roots could hold in the earth until the sun returned; and new shoots would be pushed into the air.

Beautiful!

[marzipanilla]

Thrilled that it struck you as a classic.

Thanks.

I really love what you did with this. Such beautiful language here, and you capture the feeling of the original so well while making it your own. Fantastic 'fic!

Thanks. I worried about toeing the line between just redoing their story and actually making a new one..
