Oh. Oh. Oh. I don't know where to start or how to properly convey how I felt or just how well you wrote him and them and this. But first let me say how HAPPY I am to read this, I don't care how long it took, it was so completely worth it.

There is a deep engrained quality to this, a subtitle to it, of them and every thing that goes unsaid between them; their friendship and their history and what they feel to one another, how they make one another feel, it was all so effortless and embedded and just so there without you having to blatantly write it out. You can sense their history here, FEEL their history here and it's a quality I wish I could grasp better in my writing and I quality I find in writing very rarely. You nailed it, babe. To put it lightly. You nailed him, Paul, so well, as you always do but for something reason it's always a little shocking to me, just how true to the person I see him as and know so little of that I find written so wholly in your pieces with him.

Oh you.

I appreciate so much that you get the subtlety in this. It's something that I struggle with sometimes, because I don't like blatantly putting certain things out there but then I don't want to be too cryptic either, you know? So I'm glad that it came across realistically and just okay in the end.

And haha, it's so funny that you mention how I write Mr Wesley - because I have no idea why, but I just find it a hell of a lot easier to get into his mind space than Nina's, which is why I tend to write from his POV. Really don't know what's up with that, but glad it seems to work. :)

Thanks so much for this darling. This was a pain to get out and once again (a theme for me, i think) I was desperate to get it finished so I might have rushed the ending a bit which I'm disappointed with but there you go.

<3 <3 <3 Love you! Thank you.
