Beautiful. And sorted: all the fighting paid off. I like the use of right-align.

Intriguing format! I've done two-timelines before and loved it but definitely wasn't this clever.

Printing it off now as cruentum says this is worthy of utmost concentration and attention. Looking forward to this!

A too-short lunch hour yesterday forced me to stop reading 10 pages in (I did print it off). Didn't get back to it until late last night, but I cannot deny that the story haunted me all afternoon as I was working.

So much to say! I have never seen such powerful characterization of Owen in my life. Not only was the whole setup ingenius, but the path you took Owen, and yes Tosh, through was compelling, painful, beautiful, tragic all in one.

Damn, this is good fic.

You really have written something special here. This is the first fic of yours I've read, but with this quality of writing, your work is definitely tops on my list.

Congratulations on an amazing piece of work. (Can you tell I absolutely LOVE this?)

Lord, that is powerful. I was totally captured. This was gutwrenching. (Sorry, more complicated sentences are apparently beyond me right now... long day at work paired with a strong gin-lemon *takes a swig* does it to you...)Dark and solemn and full of despair. Intriguing formatting, made it all the more intense.
Bloody well done.
Cheers.

I read this this morning and I have been kind of percolating on it all day, trying to think of what I wanted to say.

I love, love, love the formatting. I love the idea of Katie all through this, and the whole element that Tosh wants to fix Owen, and that Owen then decides to fix Tosh. The rawness of Owen's anger really hits me hard, and Tosh, while rather pitiful, isn't weak, and I think that's a delicate balance here, as she is filtered through Owen's bitter lens.

Thanks for writing this.

wow
and ouch
but this
Owen wants to make it the worst, because then life can't give him any more surprises.
sums up owen for me exactly and perfectly
