Oh hello do you hear that it is the sound of my heart breaking ):

I love this, it's such a beautiful character study of Kate and her boys. It feels hot and still, like the day you describe in it. And I do adore the bit of backstory you give Tommy here; that's something I always want to see more of, in this fandom.

/patches your heart with kitten bandaids and hearts cut out of construction paper

There was originally waaay more Tommy backstory in my head, but as I wrote I realized it was fundamentally a story about Kate, and Tommy's issues had to take a back seat. BUT IN GENERAL IA

Thank youuuuuuuu~ ♥ ♥ ♥

WAHHHHH ot3 ;___;

no but really thought this is amazing. The prose is just... perfect, really. Sets the mood and is experimental, different enough for flavor but not enough to be silly or pretentious.

<3 amazing job.

Oh man, this was an amazing OT3character introspective piece with just the right amount of melancholy. If it was pretentious, then it's the good kind of pretentious.

Also, love this line "Kate balances on the rail. She turns neatly, toes a perfect pivot, and makes her way back down the rail. Neither boy makes a move as to steady her hips, catch her if she falls - though Eli looks like he wants to. They both know what she could do." <3<3<3 Kate

Oh, that's really lovely jazzypom August 21 2010, 05:39:13 UTC
A boy burst through a window and started a fight. Kate picked up a weapon and made her own way out.

A boy burst through a wall and started to flirt. Kate faced down a captain and rallied a team.

Kate has made more decisions than any of them. And she has made this one too.

Yeah, this. So much this.

Very well written, I'm in awe.
