That he could have been alone, but isn't... mizstorge August 2 2012, 16:10:18 UTC

How many thoughts can a moment contain? More than the number of demons that can dance with angels on the head of a pin. Aziraphale's voice is so true that I completely forgot it was you writing this!

...and then he'll lean in and whisper about ducks and mean something else entirely.
heheh

Thank you, that is wonderful to hear. ^^

Yep. Good Omens - making ducks into innuendo since 1990. :D

making ducks into innuendo since 1990

If there's not an icon that says this, it's a dam-, erm, bles-, erm. All right, it's just a shame.

Oh, this is lovely <3 And you nailed the ending line, too.

hekateras August 3 2012, 21:15:57 UTC

That means a lot to me, thank you. ^^ This is one of those little fics where one line started it all, and the ending line, in this case, was it.

wow

hekateras August 3 2012, 21:16:21 UTC

Hehe, thank you, that's succinct. :D

There's a delicate, almost epistolary cadence to these musing pieces of yours. And an unhackneyed freshness, even grace in the way you capture the essence of an emotional state.

I notice you've also made the power of a repeated line very much your own without it becoming just an easy trick.

You do this kind of thing so well!

hekateras August 8 2012, 15:38:08 UTC

That is a wonderful and quite humbling review, and I'm glad the whole repeated line thing worked out. I hope that my fics remain up to your standards in the future. ^^

This fic is so lovely.

"That he could have been alone, but isn't, that no judgement of Hell or Heaven or mishap with holy water has conspired to change that, in six thousand years."

I love that line.

Thank you! :)
