I'm so very happy you like this despite your heebie-jeebies.
Your prose is so poesy and beautiful (as always).
♥ you ♥
I feel awful because I've only just finished this and I should be continuing my Dan/Blair fic and all I can think about (other than maybe writing a Ginny/Luna/Hermione/Pansy/Astoria/Daphne Friends AU for my bigbang) is a domestic klaus and/or caroline and/or stefan fic.
(other than maybe writing a Ginny/Luna/Hermione/Pansy/Astoria/Daphne Friends AU for my bigbang) FUCKING APPROVING THAT SHIT. PLEASE WRITE.
HOW CAN I HELP?
((oh for fuck's sake just give me stefan/caroline loving all over their pet klaus and ridiculous references to caro/bex parallels because you know you want to))
good. #phew. I WILL. I AM HAPPY YOU LIKE THE IDEA.
HOW CAN I HELP?
you are offering help, that's nice, saves me the trouble of blackmailing you somehow into helping me. there will be a post. we shall discuss it ALL. all of my silly headcanons and theme and form and narrator issues and also we shall squee over these women being awesome, y/y?
#likes being enabled
I WILL. IT SHALL BE WRITTEN AT SOME POINT, I PROMISE. all domestic and glorious. i bet klaus tries cooking all the time and fails and caroline and stefan never tell him his food's awful and they eat it anyway.
Such a late late comment. I'm sorry about that. I blame the dentist. But this is so beautiful and wonderful and everything I could have hoped for, start to finish.
I love the beginning the two of them living and traveling in domestic bliss and not even entirely realizing it. Caroline saying she wants to go to college and she gets what she wants because she always gets what she wants. But also because its Stefan and he's way past the time that he wouldn't let her have anything she wanted. And I loved loved the kiss on the cheek that distracted him so much and the way he thinks about moving his mouth to meet her, but doesn't.
Stefan thinks but doesn't until he finally does. And that's the problem, he just doesn't realize it until late into the game. When Caroline is way ahead of him and just biding time until he catches up.
(Stefan likes it when Caroline says we. It's like making a promise more than anything else.)First such a beautiful sentence (you write so beautifully) but also such a lovely sentiment. He likes it when she says
( ... )
“Still not very different from your hey it’s Tuesday look.”
Love this. He wasn't jealous, instead he still was. Because he has parts of her no one else will. But they have parts of her he hasn't gotten yet. His own fault of course, as Caroline reminds him, because this could have happened eariler, they could have happened earlier, if he wasn't so slow on the uptake, if he could just take a hint and understand what that look in her eyes meant. What it meant when she stopped inviting him to parties. The ball was always in his court, he just had to figure out what to do with it.
“Good. You should,” she says, playful. They still haven’t moved apart and he’s becoming increasingly aware of her body.
I just really love her confidence here. SO wonderful. Stefan is her person and he finally realizes that. She's been his person for so long after all.
(Stefan likes it when Caroline says home. It's like making a promise more than anything else.)And again
( ... )
+ And I just love it when stories circle around like that.
I think I do that way too often in my stories, but I think it was okay here.
+ I SO VERY MUCH LOVED THIS. ITS SO PEFECT AND WONDERFUL AND MORE THAN I COULD HAVE EVER HOPED FOR. (YOU EVEN HAVE A BANNER THAT'S SO LOVELY AND SO PERFECT FOR THIS FIC.) Thank you so much for writing it.
THANK YOU FOR PROMPTING IT AND BEING SO EXCITED FOR MY STORIES, WHICH MEANS SO MUCH TO ME AND IN GENERAL YOU ARE AWESOME, OKAY, ALWAYS KNOW THAT.
+ OH YOU ♥ i'm terribly late with responding to your lovely comment, there is no excuse, I am the worst
+ domesticity is the best.
+ I discovered I had more love for caroline/stefan/college than i thought i had in me, but it mostly remained in my head during this fic, though i'm glad some came across. they do, they both fit so beautifully into colleges ♥
+ I had to have damon here. both because i love damon/figuring things out and he's usually the one to figure things out v. quickly, and here, well, he's probably thought this was going to happen for a century or so, so this is no wonder to him. damon reads people well when he chooses to.
+ caroline/stefan/stefan-being-old is also a glorious thing. there should be more of it.
