You can thank tracker_lucifer for this being posted at all. She dragged me kicking and screaming through this fic, proofread every possible version, and forced encouraged me to put it up. Otherwise I'd throw it in my fire place and bury the ashes, because trying to figure out how to write Rorschach prior to 1975 fucking blows.

Oh man, this was just perfect, in every sense. It captures their strange, stilted relationship so well, the prose is fantastic, and -- yeah, just perfect. I ♥ this and you.

Thanks so much, :) I was hoping it wouldn't be completely cliched or retarded. The fandom's been around 20yrs so, you know, this fic could've gone either way...

this is nowhere NEAR bad. in fact, it's quite wonderful. as for me, what i love is the feeling of the city that's spun throughout the entire thing.

Yay for not being bad! And I'm glad the atmosphere of the city came through, I was trying to incorporate that as much as I could into the story. New York is such a huge part of the original work (as well as the movie, when I think about it), that fics that seem to downplay its signifance in terms of setting and mood seem to miss the point entirely...
