Oh my HEART! samanthahirr July 23 2011, 02:06:44 UTC
I can't believe you made so much INCREDIBLE art for my fic! When you claimed my prompt, I told you it felt like Christmas, but this is three Christmases and two birthdays rolled up in one! You've spoiled me, Honey, and I can't imagine any other art with this fic. You really made some of the scenes come alive, and I know the readers will be amazed by EVERYTHING you produced. (And they don't even know how obscenely busy you've been, what with the whole MOVING TO JAPAN FOR AN INTENSIVE LANGUAGE PROGRAM last month! How did you DO THIS?!)

And damn, seeing all those chapter headers all grouped together makes me love them even MORE. They're so graceful and lovely and PERFECT for the story! I've already gushed at you via e-mail about the individual pieces, and will surely continue to do so for months. You're the BEST and my FAVORITE and I will shout your name from the Heavens!

THANK YOU! FOR WRITING SUCH AN AWESOME STORY THAT IT LITERALLY PICKED MY BRAIN UP BY THE STEM AND SHOOK IT until all this stuff came out. And thank you too for being so delighted every time I threw stuff at you, and for seeing things in the images that I was going for - you know how you told me about the progression? THAT IS EXACTLY EXACTLY EXACTLY what I was trying to do with it, and it made me so fucking happy that you *got* it that it just made me want to try harder and make more pretties to do everything justice. I almost peed my pants getting to see everything together at one time, too, because honestly? BEST COMPLIMENT EVER is knowing that you wanted to put it into and around the text. I feel spoiled too, by this fic and our relationship lady. I dunno if I'll ever be able to top this because i have no idea if another fic is ever going to come along and be as wonderfully challenging and awesome as this one is! Thank YOU for writing it!!! And for all of the love -s eriously, that is what makes doing this stuff worthwhile, ( ... )

FLAILS

I mean, just, the Chapter Four header with the three wine glasses! GAAAAH, that's such a perfect image for that section of the fic! I didn't get a chance to squee over the headers on Friday, but holy, holy hell, I love them to aching little bits. The sweet and so pretty coffee cups, the Monet landscape (shut UP), the Dying Torero (Adam at his most melodramatic!), the still life with wine, the DEGAS, and that Van Gogh was exactly how I imagined it. siiiiiiiiiiigh!

There's this incredible grace in the way you assembled all of them, emphasizing the textures of the brush strokes, that really respects the painters' work. It comes across as elegant and loving and so, so classy.

And one more time, the Brad-seducing-Adam diptych in red and black KILLS ME. The black and white Adam in the center of the right panel, the colors you used in the streaks on the left panel.... NNNRGH!

(Also, Community Rules? !!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!)

thanks so much bb! though i can't take much credit for the dividers since they're just adaptations of actual artists (Monet, Degas, Van Gogh)
