This is so beautiful. There is so little Richard/Alex to be found online. I'm glad you posted this. :)

There is a sad lack of it, but I guess that comes with the territory of cult ships.

I'm glad you liked this! Thanks for reading and reviewing!

This is excellent. I love how no gets an easy or pretty portrayal. Two sentiments, that Locke ignores the dead which makes him good for his job, and the last section, with Alex reminding Richard of her father, stuck out for me.

These aren't exactly pretty people, at least on the inside. These are flawed people. And thus they need to be written as such.

I'm glad you liked this! Thanks so much for reading and reviewing, I really appreciate it :)

How wonderfully fucked-up, like them. I can totally imagine that Alex comes back to haunt Richard, especially considering the history of the island and their past that you so beautifully painted here. Richard falling apart on the inside while trying to remain composed on the outside... fascinating. Great work here!

I think you told me to have her haunt Ben one day when I was looking for story lines, except I suck at Ben, so I used the idea for this. So in a way I owe you one.

I'm glad you liked this! Thanks for reading and reviewing hun!

that was fascinating! I love the mix of woman and child in Alex, and how Richard is pulled towards it. that she comes back, haunting him, is really well done especially how he never ages, so it should go on a while. great insights on both and on Ben and Locke too!

Yeah, the fact that he's kind of like...immortal, I guess, makes for very interesting possibilities fic-wise, don't you think?

I'm glad you liked this! Thanks for reading and reviewing!

:D Yay! I am so glad you snagged these couple prompts! I'm so happy with both this and the other fic. And this last section, that last line. Kinda breaks my heart a little. Poor Richard. Poor Alex! I love this and I love you. Seriously. If anybody can make my muse return it is you!

I only wish I could've done more hun. I'm thrilled that you liked these and even more so that it may kickstart your muse.

Thanks so much for reading, reviewing, and for sticking by me and getting me to write these weird pairings, lol ;)
