Oh. Danny. *sniffles*

oh my GOD, right now, right this very second, how much do I love you? Words fail, is how much.

I'm totally going to come back here and give more detailed feedback when I'm not in the middle of a Pit of Work, but I just needed to let you know ASAP how thrilled I am with this story. I didn't expect "Analgesia" to be the story to get remixed, but I'm glad it was, because I thought it was an interesting idea that I just didn't have enough time/energy/skill to write in full.

Your remix is much, much better. And I'm so pleased that it is.

Thank you!

I love the way that Dan can only explain his life through metaphors and stories, and that Casey is so painfully important (and not always in a good way) that he can't do that about him. I love that Dan is still obfuscating and avoiding and that Abby (who should just tell him to piss off) is still trying to get him to admit whatever his truth is.

I love how we don't know any more than Dan does and possibly less as who knows how much he lies to himself.

Fantastic and painful. Thank you.

Oh, gorgeous! Makes me want to cry for Dan.

Ow! Pain! But you write it so beautifully, and with the rhythm of the darkest moments of the show.
