I love this fic, it huurts. I already told you what parts I like the best... and I'm lazy and stupid, so I'm not going to copy and paste them again.

But like, you did a really good job making this real. Obviously I have never been a street thug, but the relationships are laid out really well.

Thanks, bro.

[eastdisease]

Thank you so much, that's great to hear.

You are constantly breaking my heart ;______;

Ugh Sean.

Okay I love this though it's so sweet and sad and does feel realistic and it's got that wonderful fucked up dynamic to it. Gorgeous!

Can I have fic where Sean and Tom bake cookies and play with kittens or something now? ;____;

[eastdisease]

I know, I know. It's not really intentional...hurt-y things just always are what come to mind.

But thank you so much :') As for cookie baking, maybe~

This is lovely and painful and perfectly broken. I'm so glad I stumbled across it. The implication that Tom managed to put himself back together at the expense of shattering all the lives around him is simply heartbreaking.

I'm so happy you found this! It made me want to reread it and I actually think I really like it (which is shocking for me, haha). Thank you so much for reading and enjoying.

I found your journal randomly, I think through anon_lovefest. I love this. I like stories with small vignettes that can work seamlessly together as one being, and you've really accomplished that here. I wish there were more empires fics out there! great job.

[eastdisease]

Oh, wow! I'm so happy to hear that, and to see that there's yet another empires fic fan out there. I admit to writing a couple of the far and few empires prompts that have popped up through alf, though I haven't written any serious empires fic since this one. I'm really, really pleased that you liked this. Thank you so, so much! :')
