Oh, man, this is gorgeous. I'm feeling all emotional over it. I love how Lyra is exactly like her childhood self and yet older, and Will! How he steadies her. So perfect - a perfect end to their story.

THANK YOU!

♥ I'm so glad you liked it. I had something else in mind, but when I reread the book this scene begged to be written.

lakdklfadsklf I love this. alsdkaflkdslfs. The ending of the Amber Spyglass has always killllled me and I'm so glad you wrote this. It's so believable and nice.

Thanks! The Amber Spyglass is devastating, isn't it? :-/ I'm so glad you liked this coda.

Oh, this is lovely and heartbreaking (the idea that they don't even get to touch again in the afterlife! SOB!). Beautiful and evocative. <3

Thank you! These two break my heart the way very few canon couples can (heh, I guess Kara and Lee would be another couple in that category). Very glad you liked this. :)

Yes, definitely shades of K/L (my beloved OTP!) but arguably Lyra and Will got so much more meaningful of an ending.
