o.o Lovely! Artfully written without excess sentimentality; has a very "real" feel to it without the haze of most fanfic. ^^ Great job.

Thank you! 'Real' is exactly the feel I was going for. Something honest & stark.

So glad you liked it!!

Oh wow. This was fantastic. I'm still getting my toes wet in Troy fandom, and I've never been sure I could get behind Hector/Achilles, but the tagline ("Tonight, my brother, I am all the enemy I need") was intriguing as hell, and I'm really glad I sat down to read this one. It was great. I love the little pieces of description (Hector poking at the fire and the resulting sparks), the attempt at easy dialogue (Achilles's question about the horses), the urgency of the ending, with both of them looking for a different particular sort of "match"... very, very nice. Thank you!

Thank you SO much! I always thought there was something more between them in the poem and the movie totally emphasized that for me. But I wanted something delicate and sparse. So glad it worked!

Glad you liked it!!!

I love this statement. :)
