Oh, oh, this is just - this is beautiful, but ow. God.

Eeeee, thank you! ♥

Oh, boys! What a beautiful homecoming, fingers twined - all the things they'd do for each other distilled into that rough touch. meeeep! ♥

And the art! The colors are incredible - that warm orange is mesmerizing; warm but also the tiniest bit threatening - it's the color I associate with John being trapped. Beautiful stuff!

This was glorious and touching and I think my favorite part was the morse code. Because, we couldn't understand it till we checked (unless any of us reads that), and that's how everyone was but Rodney, right?

Such a fabulous, heartwarming, heartwrenching story, and I wouldn't have expected anything else from such a wonderful author.

The ART OMG THE ART. The story itself is a work of art and the art is just as stunning! I love your use of color, I always have, and the varied ways you've played with words and shapes and beauty and color here just has me typing and typing trying to catch up to the amazingness of it and failing.

What a wonderful, meaningful entry. You guys rock.

Thank you so much!! The Morse code was what happened first... Everything else sort of built around that :D

I was thinking of the Le Scaphandre, wondering if you knew about it.
Very touching story! and wonderful art.

I admit, the story had me crying--usually I don't cry. I'm hesitant to watch the movie, because even the trailer made me tear up.
