Beautiful work, both of you <3

This is such a stunning work. Both the story and the illustrations are fantastic.

I can't get over how beautiful the art this. Oh my god. I'm sitting here *speechless* just looking and looking.

And the story, it's just perfect.

Fabulous work. Thank you so much.

The story and art work was mind numbingly gorgeous. It had such a dreamy quality and feel to it.

This was beautiful from all angles! The art, the writing, the story... I loved that this was more Draco's story, and that it involved so much of his relationship with his father. Great work, both of you!

Holy fuck, this is gorgeous, aching, brooding, beautiful. I am so in love with every word and every piece of art *flails* I don't even have the words to describe how the whole thing makes me feel, but I'm bloody crying here. The art and the writing perfectly complement each other, it is truly astonishing. I am so in love with the artist's style, each piece is mesmerising but that first one of Draco looking out of the window is so broodingly gorgeous I think I could sit and look at it all day. I love love love the ending, so thoroughly ambiguous and yet not at all, in my mind. Beautiful work ♥
