Wow.

Yeah I'm crying. This is beautiful and horrific at the same time. Great job.

Not even Rodney could fix it. :(

[pogrebin]

Aww, no, I don't want to make you cry. The world ends, but they get to be together at the end. :) Thank you so much for your comment.

Lovely. I liked the bit about it being another Rodney's fault.

[pogrebin]

I'm so glad! Once I realised we had seen so much of one possible future, I just couldn't ignore it. The possibilities and abandoned timelines in Stargate are so compelling...

This is amazing... I have no words. Haunting and horrifying and beautiful all at the same time.

[pogrebin]

I'm so glad it worked for you-- all of those words would be how I would describe mashimero's art, so I'm glad the tone of the fic managed to live up to it!

The inevitability here hurts in all the best ways - I think I barely breathed. Your language is so complex and so richly chosen that I think I will read this many more times. Thank you.

Thank you so so much for your comment-- I'm incredibly flattered that you would reread this, so thankyou. :)

This is fantastic. I'm in love with the language here, the flow of the story, how it all ends. It's beautiful.

[pogrebin]

Thankyou! I think the beginning and the end are my favourite bits, actually. I kind of want to go back and do some more scrabbling around in the middle, to get it to where it's going. :)
