Fic:: Talitha Cumi [M*A*S*H]

[loneraven]

I was writing a totally srs business longer story, and I still am writing it, but I broke off on Thursday to write this after it arrived in my mind fully-formed in the dentist's chair. I should floss more.

I think I like this best of all your things that I have read. Would it be ok if i put it on my Kindle, to return to sometimes? Somehow the daemons and Mash seem to just go together.

I have never written any Pullman fanfic, but now I am wondering about a WWI, story.

Of course, you may transfer/transform my stories any way you like if my name stays on. I'm really, really glad you enjoyed this. :)

[eglantine_br]

Thank you. I will not change a thing, just keep it on my Kindle so I can read it again easily!

Oh my gosh, this is marvelous -- so sensitive and delicate. I love the daemon's you've selected for the characters, and I love the play of ideas, and the final image of Hawkeye and Halle. That line, that all is takes is time, and distance, and the endurance of pain is so lovely. It's how human beings are made, too, I think.

:) apologies for any momentary confusion the title may have engendered. <3

(I am kind of sad that Talitha doesn't seem to be a lamb... :P)

[loneraven]

Alas and alack, she is a bunny rabbit. But as Mulcahy is grown up, wouldn't his daemon have to be a sheep? The mind sort of revolts at the image.

I love all your m*a*s*h fic (as much as I love m*a*s*h, which is all consumingly), but this is just beautiful and the fusion works suprisingly well. That last scene with the dust and Hawkeye.

[loneraven]

Thank you very much! :)

[subluxate]

Oh. Oh. This is so perfectly MASH, even though it's a fusion; the way the daemons fit and everyone's reactions and how war changes that bit of people's selves, that tie. My heart broke for Evans, and how I love that Margaret cries when he dies when earlier she was talking about how men have told her she's too cold.

Your characterization is spot-on. The whole thing is. It's gorgeous.

[loneraven]

Oh, thank you very much! I'm really pleased that this sounded like the show to you, daemons and witches notwithstanding. :)
