First!
Yes! I totally rule! Take this, lex_et_loser! Hahahaha!

Ahem.

I really like this view from the other side.
Funnily the first thing that popped into my mind when Victor was thinking about cherishing one kid more than the other was that it very often are the kids which rub most on the parents who in the end are most respected by them. Going your own way may be painful, but it certainly creates respect. Well, that's how it should be anyway. :)

Well, aren't you just so special. (See? I told you I could get sarcastic).

I don't know... just what little we've seen of Victor seems to indicate that he would be the type to respect Martin for standing his ground, in some respects, but at the same time he'd regret not being closer to his son.

FINALLY I can post and tell Pixie (again) how awesome this story is.
Please, did you really think, even with the LJ issues, I didn't know she posted this five minutes after she did? I just like to be good every once in a while so I can still be called the good twin.

Do you know what make-belief means? It perfectly describes a world in which I would like to live in. Really, it's my hearts desire. But noooo, you have to go and destroy my pink bubbles, you big bully! Even Pixie told me I'm special!(Why she italicized that word so funnily, I'll never know.)
I'm going to cry myself into sleep now.

Another story so soon! Yea!

I love the glimpses you give us of Victor, and prickly Martin with Victor. Very nice.

[crazy_magpie]

Thank you. I really get the idea that neither one knows exactly how to deal with the other, but that Victor's not completely the bad-guy Martin pretends he is.

Like Futma said: I like this view from the other side.

Awesome!
I like how it leads you to think one thing and then, surprise, it's the other!
