Oh wow.

♥ ♥ ♥

This is just so, asd;lfjk perfectly wonderful.

Love love love the fact that it seems completely normal to Luna to pick up exactly where they left off three years before, love that Dean takes it so naturally in stride.

He told himself it was just because he was taking care to get the details right, or because he spent more time talking to Luna than actually painting her

Oh Dean. Love your denial. ;)

Luna, of course, had always had a habit of throwing wrenches into his best resolutions.

This whole interchange was fantastic, with Dean's assumptions of Luna contradicting things she really has going on, something I think we're all guilty of doing with her character. But this line, oh man, A+. Starts by losing one assumption and then goes right into making another. Just for her to defy it. Aww, Dean.

“It sounds horrid,” Luna observed. “Perfect.”

I have no idea why this sounds absolutely Luna, but it so so is.

Stop, he wanted to say, that’s my floor, not a canvas.Ok, I *snerked*. But more importantly, YES!

No, this fic was so wonderful! ♥ This was your first L/D? Well now, what can we do to get you to write some more then, eh? Because you totally should. XD

Would you mind terribly if I friended you?

this is totally awesome. :)
I love the art, the rain, the fact that there's a little hint that Luna is *dealing* with things just like everybody else, but even so she has that spark.
great dialogue, wonderful language.

I really like the tone and the language of this, with descriptions like "the fury of everyone celebrating and mourning, crying and laughing in the same breath" and "strange things with skittering legs and a hundred shining eyes". Luna is so very Luna with her strange creatures and the wonderful last line, but also with her logical thoughts about hoovers. Her and Dean seem to fit together in this fic and I really enjoyed reading it :o)

Lovely - perfectly in character Luna, but developed in an interesting direction, particularly the mixture of anger and acceptance towards her father. And Dean, who seems so quiet and down-to-earth, but is an artist and creative and open to other things. Adding this to my memories!

I've found myself strangely addicted to Luna/Dean, and this was beautiful. A perfect description of them coming closer together and healing from the war.
