Aw thank you dear! This comment just completely made my day! The second one definitely feels uncomfortable for me as well, but I'm glad that it still felt plausible at least. And with such wonderful feedback, how can I not want to write more A/R? ;)

They were all so good! I love the dynamic between Laura, Billy, and Bill in the third one.

Wow, these are all so different. You really went to town last night. I love that you wrote me some fluffy goodness!

The first of these is probably my favorite. Poor Laura. It's so sad to think of her loss being compounded this way. (((Laura)))

Sad Laura makes me sad, *sniffles*, but I'm very happy you liked both your fluffier ficlet and the rather less light hearted first story ;)

Apologies for the delay in commenting! All three of these did me in, in different ways. The first is wrenching--all the immortality any of us have is in how others remember us, and when the last rememberer is dying...I can really see Laura judging Bill as the best person to carry her memories and keep them alive.
The second--I could feel Laura's exhaustion and weakness and then oh, great, here comes a drunk who wants to fight...but then there's love and sympathy churned into the mix. You really show her battling with all his issues while she just wants to lie down and rest, and then you have him see it, too. Wonderful.
And finally, a nice dose of sexy, funny fluff that made me smile and feel hopeful for them all over again.

Thank you so much for commenting (and sometimes delays just make things wonderfully better because you get surprised by new comments hehe), and I'm so glad you liked them!! I was really surprised by the directions these too from the prompts I was given, but that's what I love about this fandom - you never quite know where your brain is going to take you with a story and yet people are still willing to come along for the ride.
