Wow!
That was wonderfully written. So real... too real maybe.
I don't often read fics where drugs are involved as a central plot because they leave me with such a feeling of hopelessness. This has too, but it's good that it has invoked a feeling I think. And at least Kevin knows what he wants and can hopefully pull himself out of it all.

Thank you.

No, thank you!

I'm really thrilled to hear that someone thought it was real; usually, I don't write anything where drugs are in the center or realistic (the latter because my LJ adaptations of Rosencrantz and Guildenstern are stoner frat boys, but they're completely ridiculous and not meant to be taken seriously at all). Then I developed Kevin and that changed. He looks like he's going to, at least, make progress, with a great deal of help from unrulygarden's character, Hale.

So there will be more?
I'd like to read more if you can fit the AWDT prompts in. I know I don't always make it easy but you did brilliantly this time.

There will be more, sometimes AWDT and sometimes not. I write about my RPG characters all the time.

Well, I already did an H/D piece for this week's prompts (it just kind of happened; I almost never write H/D), but I can probably find a way to write something with Kevin with them. It'll be easier now that I'm off school for the summer. Actually, it's the challenge that I like best about them. They're not easy, but they're fun and the results are usually great!

I echo Ali's comment. This was really well written. I enjoyed reading it immensely. I hope you write more of it and I'm looking forward to catching up with the H/D you've written for this week's prompt shortly. Thanks so much!!

Thank you, for reading, commenting, and enjoying! As I said, there's definitely going to be more... actually, I've got an idea churning for this week's prompt - the first one that came to me was Kevin and not fanfic.
