Brief pause for breath

Nov 01, 2007 00:10

Wow, I've been running around like crazy for at least a week now and I'm still not sure where all the time has gone. I certainly haven't accomplished much despite all the buzzing about. But I have been earning some extra bucks on an editing job, which is waaaay cool. Cash in the bank and another notch on the CV. Who can ask for anything more ( Read more... )

trowa, fic, heero, gw

Trowa lay peacefully sleeping, head tucked into the crook of his arm, spanner still in his hand and several small oil stains decorating the only visible corner of his face.

If I had any artistic ability, I'd sketch that for you. As it is, your words are quite lovely enough for me to see Trowa like this clearly. ♥ This is the only moment of respite in the fic, the place where Heero can touch down between the horrors of sleeping and waking life, and I greatly admire how powerfully poignant yet understated you've made it.

Awwwwww... you're so mean to tempt me with the idea of a sketch!! ;) So glad you liked that image though. It always makes me smile just a little. Thank you so much for the awesome feedback! I hadn't really noticed how there's only that one quiet spot in the middle - kind of like the eye of a storm. Very interesting was to look at it. Neat! (Sorry for the slow reply - our department's been hosting an academic conference and it's been chaos here!!)

Relaxing is good and so is having money in the bank.

I really liked the fic. It shows that Heero is beginning to make connections to people and move his focus beyond just the mission. Someone needs to sit him down and explain about love in all it's forms and how you can love someone without being in love with them. Considering ppl learn intellectually and emotionally in generalities first them into specifics and shades of gray shows where he is in terms of development. As time goes he will learn to distinguish Eros from Fraternal love regardless of which way the relationship goes.

Heya! Yes, relaxing is good, but I haven't had much time for it of late. This stupid report is STILL not finished, so I keep having to cram editing in around homework and lectures and sleep and it's becoming a total pain.

BUT, enough of that. Thanks a million for the feedback on this fic!! I like that idea that Heero doesn't really understand the different types of love and that it could go either way with Trowa in this fic. I'm thinking Heero has never really had a friend/comrade of his own age, so he really doesn't know what to do with the feelings he's got building up inside him in relation to Trowa. Excellent insights as usual! Thank you so much!!

Sleep is for the weak! *falls face first onto the keyboard and drools*

While I think Heero does live by what Odin told him about following his emotions I'm sure he understands what they are or is able to put a name or definer to them.

OMG I love the way you describe Trowa sleeping, it's utterly adorable that he took his spanner to bed with him though, he must have been too tired to notice ^___^ I was aching for Heero to reach over and touch him!

Thanks!!! Trowa needs more "adorable" time, rather than his usual deadly, stony or dead sexy. :) Yes, poor Heero isn't quite ready to go there yet - but there's still time!
