Oh god, my breath caught at the end there. Six, can you have one relationship that doesn't end horribly? :(

<3 Really haunting and sad. I felt awful for that Six, you could tell there'd been something naive and optimistic at her core once.

Thanks for commenting :) Yeah, there really was something bitter like burst hopefulness about that Six, something so disappointed in her...not sure if it was this something, but I found it interesting to think about.

The saddest part is it never really was a relationship. It was just Six fluttering around Barolay like a hopeful puppy.

This is so good. First of all, you have perfectly captured Six's crush. The way you describe her thoughts, actions, they are perfect at conveying it. And then, the end. How crushing is that? Very well done.

Thank you! I'm glad that you thought I got the element of the crush across successfully and that it really worked for you.

Wonderful fic, but so sad. That scene in Faith with Six and Jean made me tear up and this story makes it all the more bittersweet. Very good writing.

Thank you! I'm really happy that you think so, and that I was able to take such an affecting scene for you and make it even more.

Ooh, this is just excellent. The ending in particular has just the right little cruel touch.
