What did you do, in the face of so much insanity?
This I loved. Wonderful and terribly realistic, a very well grasped view of reality going on as always, ass seen through the kid's eyes (or the eyes of anyone in that situation). The day itself came out feeling as horribly beautiful, full of sunshine and flowers and colour, even though their mother was being buried. Awesome counterpoint! This fic - as a whole - deserves much love!

The descriptions of how everything was so minutely wrong was really just wonderful. Because despite the detail, despite the careful cataloguing of all of it, it's so very, painfully clear that nothing's really wrong at all. This line just brings that out incredibly, incredibly well, for some reason: "The parlor had too many angles." Just something so normal, something that they've seen so many times before, and now it isn't right. <3
So much love for this.
