Thank you for reading. I'm so pleased you liked it, I'm always a little nervous when I write serious. :) I was so pleased when I found those quotes, especially as I'd written the preceding line before I looked up the quotes.

This is just beautiful; particularly this paragraph.

Amanda and Duncan are just, well... *are*.

They are.
