That dreaming away on the violin is one of my favourite PoB passages - and you've done it immense justice in taking it further.

I like the way this piece mirrors the music - hesitant, like a dream at first, but then once committed, "every note radiatored with joy and happiness.

My smile is as happy as Stephen's.

Oh dear! I'm blushing here. Thank you for your kind words.

Oh, you have taken one of my most favourite moments in the Aubreyad, when Stephen hears Jack play, and you gave me the scene I had missed for years. Everything is as slow and gentle as the music and you echo that perfectly.

I cannot thank you enough for making me smile. :)

Thank you, Esteven. As soon I as I read that passage, I knew I Must write this story. It is one of my favorites too.

So glad you did! You are a much talented writer and have already come up with a lot of good ideas. I will be looking forward to more of your work.

Thank you for sharing.

Drat, I hoped I'd be the first. One of my MAES fics is an extension of this scene, but I don't do quite this spin on it.
This one is great - short, but sweet, just the way I like romantic one-shots.
Good Job!!!

Don't be sorry at all. Your serie is amazing and I look forward to your version of this amazing passage. The more, the merrier, I think. And thank you for commenting.

It is one of my favorite parts too, although I have only done a read-through once before. I think this story is sweet and sexy and very well done. I have no time to be half as elequent as most fic writers here, and I still havent read all of renaiya880727 's MAES stories..I think I only read one or two? Anyway..I have a lot to catch up on. ANYWAY thanks for this it was great!!
