I don't even know where to begin. I had to stop reading this at several points, just because it was ... too much. I couldn't take it all in, I needed to take breaks and stare into space for 10 minutes to let what I'd just read sink in properly.

This is so much more than fanfiction. Reading this just ... I can't even. This is beautiful. You take these characters, these boys, and make them entirely different people that are still completely themselves at the same time. I really can't even comprehend ...

The pain they go through is so vivid and raw, but so well dealt with. I've always had issues with character death in fic, but this blows all of my arguments out of the water. You didn't write Ryan's death to suit your story or because you wanted to put your other characters through it. I feel like you wrote it because it needed to be written.

I'm being ridiculous and incoherent, but this is so far beyond beautiful and gorgeous and painful and tragic and real. ♥

Seriously, you are amazing.

I have a lot of problems with deathfics, too, in that the death is more for shock value than it is anything else. That is just not okay. Death is really more about the people left behind and remembering the person that's gone than it is about how they died.

Oh my heart, my heart. This is lovely, and the way they pick up the pieces, just, yes.

♥ Thank you.

Honestly, there are fics that I write that I want to live in the universe and have so much more to say than I put on the page. This one, like, there are things I could say, but I don't think I ever want to go back here.
