Ouch. Poor Luke. Poor Anakin.

[deaka]

Torturing characters through angst is great stress relief. :p Thanks for reading!

I love it. :D Posted more thorough feedback at the JC. :D

Glad to hear you enjoyed it. :D I was a bit worried with it being so dark that no one would like it. *is relieved* :p

It was beautifully dark. I especially liked that Luke can't use the Force as well, that he feels oily shadow. I also like how he's so distant from everyone. Makes me wonder if he would ever succeed in bringing back the Jedi.

Great job.

Thank you! Yes, I can really see things ending up differently in this 'verse. I don't think Luke's heading for a good place, which Anakin kind of sees.

Glad you enjoyed. :D

Oh, wow. This is gorgeous. And it felt so very believable for both of them.

Lovely, lovely fic.

Thank you so much! I was a little worried about it, given it had some darkish implications. Glad you enjoyed. :)

Torturing Luke is too easy. :p Thank you!
