Cool! I like not knowing exactly what happened.

*mumble* I had the idea that, like, the not knowing would be like the wound, and what we saw--the healing, the going on--would be sort of like the scar, so, er. It was this idea I had. Thank you for going along with me!

The whole *waves hands* metaphorical wound/scar thing came across very clearly to me, so, yeah, mumbletymubleworks.

Also now I think someone should perhaps write wound/scar anthropomorfic, huh.

I love the snippets of past in this, how we don't quite know what has happened but know that something has, and how we need to piece it together through John's particular brand and non-communication. And the way they comfort each other, and fit together when nothing else seems to - you write JohnandRodney in a most delightful way.

A very enjoyable read. :)

Thank you!--yeah, it's a story about silence as much as anything, and it's nice to know that J&R fit even--or maybe especially--when they're NOT talking. YAY! \o/
