Okay,I stayed up waaaay too late reading this on FFN last night, but it was too good to put down and save for later. I really liked how it flows from one even to another, the smoothness is such a sharp contrast to all the pain she's been holding in for so long.

I keep coming back to this: "It's funny, you know," she says in a quiet voice. She's still not looking at him, and there is absolutely nothing funny about her broken demeanor. "I actually woke up smiling that morning. It really doesn't happen often. But I was back. I was home. I was alive. And I admit that I was thinking about you. For reasons I didn't understand yet, you had been avoiding visiting me, preferring short and shallow phone conversations instead. So I was quite giddy just knowing I would see you soon." She finally looks at him and shrugs slightly, smiling almost apologetically as quiet tears roll down her cheeks again. "I had missed you." ...because it sums up Olivia's mindset at that point so beautifully - she's embarrassed by Peter's actions, that's how much

Sorry it took me so long to reply to your comment!! Especially since it made me so happy when I first read it (and it still does rereading a month later :') )

Thank you so much for everything you said, the bit you quoted was one of my favorite part to write, I love getting into her head *sighs* THANK YOU!!

LOVE IT! <3 I just love the plot of getting Olivia to tell her fears/past to Peter and then ending with field of white tulips then going home! Just awesome! :D

[elialys]

Thank you so much for your comment! (better late than never, right? XD). I'm still hoping that one day, we'll get to say grown up Peter and Olivia in a fied of white tulips again. That will be the most beautiful, epic scene ever :')

What a beautiful fic. I love how poignant and emotional your writing is. I like how it was actually Peter who made the rain fall, and how you brought back that paper and how she was doubting him again and the reasons you explained why that was so.

Gah, the scenes you chose were really heartbreaking especially with Charlie -- our Charlie -- reappearing and her saying goodbye to the woman who wasn't her mother. So glad you included the altBroyles moment too -- the poor man who died to save her when she had lost all hope.

Argh, beautifully done. I love what you had her say about how it wasn't even that she saw him as a projection Over There because she was in love...it's because he'd become a constant in her life -- someone worthy of her trust who she could rely on. That's what I love about their relationship. At the heart of it, they are two lost and somewhat broken souls who find comfort in one another, reaching out to one another across the gap. *sigh*

A month later but THANK YOU SO SO MUCH for your comment!!! I'm just glad you enjoyed this story, I had a blast writing it :')

OMG YES this this this!! They are just so beautiful, and broken, and in love and I'm not going to survive the finaleeeee *sobs*

Elialys, you are too amazing! Your prose is just beautiful. I’m so blown away by your own words that I struggle to reply with my own. I really can’t tell you how much I enjoy your writing. What impresses me the most is that English is not your native tongue, yet you have such an amazing handle on the language, such an artistic way of weaving words together and drawing us into these scenes. Every piece of imagery, every emotion is clear as day. Olivia’s fear and despair, Peter’s desperation and sympathy-and above all, their love for each other-was all so tangible and real and appropriate in all the right places. I could understand Peter’s frustration of trying to convince Olivia she didn’t want to remain there, and at the same time I could understand why Olivia did. Of course we all want them back together in the corporeal sense, and I thank you not only for that happy ending, but for the angsty, juicy path you took us down toward it. :) And that final scene, them ending up in the field of white tulips and neither of them

I'm sorry to be replying a month later, Real Life had been hectic, but I soooo wanted to thank you, for reading my story, and for writing such a kind, detailed comment, I'm so grateful.

It always makes me incredibly giddy when someone comment on my English skills because it is definitely harder for me to write in English rather than French, even if it gets easier with every story. I love both languages, they can be very lyrical in their own way (my favorite kind of writing as you may have guessed XD).

What we got on the show was quite different, that's for sure (still not totally in love with the cartoon aspect of the episode lmao But the writing was awesome as usual), so I'm glad I have written this story because it totally became canon in my head hahaha! Especially that white tulips scene, ARGH, I really wanted something like this on the show *sighs*

Thank you again, you are way too generous, but I'm not complaining!! :')

YOU. <3333 THIS. <3333 I CAN'T. TOO MANY EMOTIONS RUNNING THROUGH MY MIND RIGHT NOW.

Everything about this is just love. I mean, I can't even begin to put into words how amazing this was. I love YOU btw. I just felt like I need to confess this secret admiration I have for you before I become a creepy stalker. lol I've loved you since the first Fringe fanfic you wrote, and every day I'm always waiting for you to update something. xD

But god, THIS <333 This is how LSD should go down. You brought back all of the memories and scenes that I've wanted Fringe to elaborate on and incorporated it into the new moments, and I love it. I know, that's all I've been saying, but I honestly don't think I can type out what I'm feeling coherently. I also feel like there isn't much I can say. I mean, you've said it ALL. lol

Now.....if only Polivia could end as a happily ever after here. Sadly, there's still the miniPeanut to deal with..I can only imagine what that's going to do to Olivia.
