Wow, still really enjoying this. Each section was even more of a punch to the gut than the next. The scenes with Elizabeth were exquisitely painful. I loved his observation that the deck was like a second sea. There were a bunch of beautiful observant lines like that. Well done indeed - I eagerly await your next installment.

Aw, thank you again!

I'm sorry it's painful, in a way, but then again... it means I'm doing something correctly. I'm glad that I'm getting to play with the heartstrings a bit.

And I liked that observation too. I was just thinking about how James would see it, and... it just seemed fitting somehow. I'm glad you noticed and enjoyed. ^^

"James reluctantly stopped walking yet again, and turned to face Elizabeth one last time. “What is it you want from me, Miss Swann? Tell me, and I will do my best to oblige.”"

I'm still loving this part where he totally shuts her down best :D

Aw, thanks tammsla. ^_________^'

I like that part too. xD

But she kinda deserves it for playing him like she did... and he was a bit bitter, so it works. Hahaha. She'll wise up eventually, though.

Ahhhh this is so well written. The angst makes me sad.

I know that sounded a little amateur, but it's the truth :D

Thank you VERY much. Your comments always make me smile.

And... I hope it's good angst-sadness. Not sad like 'Aw, more horrible angst! Drat!' xD

And it didn't sound amateur. Writing has power over emotions, and I'm glad mine is even displaying any. xD

Your stories always do the same for me, so it's totally understood. -nod-

Haha. Mh, don't worry, it's more angsty like...

"Oh gash, poor James, let's hug him again!" Which I very much like. ;D

MY stories? Eh, they're muses really. But great that you have a like-ish effect to it.

Wait, I'M supposed to be complimenting YOU. :P

Mhm, well, anyway, I's enjoying this story lots, and's canna wait for more. :)

Thanks for this, it's excellent. I love to know what's going on in his mind and this is very believable. Maybe one day I'll be brave enough to write something in which we see James crumbling slowly to death and this is very beautiful, but for now, I both stick with my fluff and salute your courage.
