Sister! -hug-

Thank you, super thank you, this was just what I needed to read. I didn't think anyone was actually going to do this. XD

Aside from that, this was perfect. I love this scatter-ness, the way each scene/part jumps in with its significance, LOVE, LOVE, LOVE.

"Why does God stay up in Heaven?"
"Because he's afraid of what he created on Earth."

PERFECT WAY TO START ANYTHING.

“I…” never liked you, did I? I hated you for hurting him. I can’t remember the last time I heard your name. “I’m dead, aren’t I?”

I love how Kon can't finish this. So mean and yet I forgive him for it cause he's dead. Oh, Kon. :(

Up close, she looks anything but. “We are not real.”

“And this,” he’d quipped, “is me not caring.” What I love about your dead!Kon is that he's still him. Defiant and all that and I-don't-really-give-a-damn-I'll-adapt. The attitude, love it ( ... )

*Hugs back* Welcome!

Really, I should be thanking you: if it weren't for that prompt/challenge, which seems so promising I wish other people would accept, and your fic, which nudged me back into the Drake-Kent Conspiracy, I wouldn't have had so much fun last night. It was a blast, Daya!

each scene/part jumps in with its significance

Like I said, this was a cookie, or a suicidal bunny. Whenever I get one of those, I feel the urge, and the urge doesn't leave much room for fillers. (Except when it does, but I was on a time limit this time.) All the same, if I'd kept at it for another few days it would probably be longer, but the scenes would still be those "just enough" types, the essential ones. When you're dead, spare time isn't cherished as it should be because it's all you have; you define yourself by the moments when action takes place, or when it could take place, because it reminds you of the time when you could participate. (Poor Kon) It, um, made sense in my head ( ... )

I hope I'm not the last to review here. I'll pimp to other places! :)

You remember what I said about us and sisters and other life? Cos that totally made sense to me too.

Steph is trying to coax him into deciding which he likes best; as he won't acknowledge dying fully he can't experience the freedom it offers and therefore doesn't feel he needs to decide.

Ah, I like that. Steph seemed really indifferent at first to whether he chose or not, but I got the meaning near the end. She's trying to help him -- super sweet. But you write stubborn!Kon well, so that kinda contradicts what with he's trying to be (which is stubborn) and it makes a big ol' mess.

Does that make me evil, enjoying your pain like that? I enjoyed my pain while I was writing it, because ( ... )

Thanks. ^_^

More of the angsty Kon? Sure. Eventually. Maybe I'll do Tim first. Give me a week...or a month.

Okay. Now that I gave it a while, the beginning has grown on me. Since you have no problem with it I shall keep it that way.

She says "T'anks" because she thinks she's underappreciated by moi and trying to harass me about my love for Remy LeBeau at the same time. I know, doesn't it?

That's a perfect story for this time of year, all autumnl and laced with misty tendrils. Oh, kids, dead too soon.

Thanks for reading!

I love fall, so I'm flattered you see its essence here. There's something beautiful about the descent, the decay. To be honest, I hadn't realized it was Halloween when I started or finished this, but then it hit me and I laughed.

(I love your work, by the way, in case I never got around to commenting myself, under any name.)
