Oh, this was beautiful and kind of heartbreaking. I loved it.

Thank you so much! Raylan feels a bit heartbreaking this Season...

[thornfield_girl]

I agree, completely heartbreaking. I loved it.

[bleodswean]

Thank you - I really appreciate your comments! I find the character to be heartbreaking.

I love the pacing of this. It's not rushed - the way you bring us to this beautiful moment at the end that I could see and hear so clearly. It's nostalgic, but not overly sentimental and that's a good thing.

I really enjoyed this.

Thank you for your detailed comments! I'm glad to hear this approach worked for you. Subtlety and pacing can be hard to keep consistent, certain characters really lend themselves to this, don't they?

Gorgeous writing! Your little fic really enhances the show, something I wouldn't have tought was possible.

[bleodswean]

Wow - what a cool comment! Thank you so much.

[bleodswean]

Thanks so much. I have an idea for a much bigger fic that clearly addresses the fact that Raylan and Boyd are now brothers of a sort. That was such a theme for S3 and I'd like to expand on it. This exchange was the perfect place to try it a bit as the giftee didn't want *coughcough* slash. ;)

Glad you enjoyed reading!
