Oh, Hamlet slash *swoon*

I love your style when you write Shakespeare hunnie, your sentences are structured really beautifully :).

Did I just make a sentence-structure comment? Bloody hell, it must be 2am.

I love how you write these characters. Hamlet is my favourite Shakespeare of all time and you really do their complexity justice with the snippets you write about them.

Thankyooo for giving me two more minutes of not-being-asleep :)!!

!!! I *loved* this! I have never read Hamlet fanfiction before, but this was brilliant, beautiful images and true to the play and I loved it a great deal.

This is so lovely and so perfect. No one loves Hamlet like Horatio.

This is the first pairing I ever mentally slashed - a quarter of a century ago before there was internet slash, when I thought I was the only person who did this. Hamlet is my favourite Shakespeare play.

I love the way you've written this, there's a beautiful sad stillness to Horatio's thoughts.

Sorry you're so down. I hope the meds help.
