writing!

in two parts. a beginning and an end, maybe? I'm not quite sure where it's going, though.

Title: Like Clockwork
Comment: I'm not sure if this is done at all. The beginning.

Not in a bad way, in a 'wow-that-was-good' way.

You are an amazing writer. My heart is totally hurting right now.

Ah...I wasn't logged in - sorry.

[iambickilometer]

that's quite all right. And thank you. I am very glad you liked it, as there will probably be more where it came from.

:D I think I did indeed mean to imply an attack on socio-economic barriers (mostly for the trivial reason of having an image of a very uncomfortable Evan dressed up and associating with capitalist nobility). And thank you. That's kind of how I see it myself, actually: dusty, with muted colours like an old photograph.

That's probably because in a sense, it was rather fleeting. Julian isn't the type to stay in one place for very long. And it did involve a lot of Evan being dragged along as a sidekick, as you said. He has his own importance, but not in a way that Julian can really relate to, while Julian tends to eat up the spotlight. Not that Evan would really mind. I think I might write more in Julian's POV, because as you said, we don't get much of his side of things.

:D Well, thank you. So do I.

Ouch. Ouch. Ouch.

You know how to break a reader's heart. The last line of the 2nd piece just killed me. Well the whole last paragraph.

It's lovely though. Continuation?

I have had lots of practice. It's one of my writing goals, breaking hearts. XD I am very glad it was so effective.

And thank you! Definitely continuation. In some form or another.
