God Dammit! You write so bloody well!

The imagery in this story was so achingly beautiful. This fic just broke my heart :-(

*goes in search for chocolate to cheer myself up*

Thank you so much for the lovely comment! Honestly, 'achingly beautiful' is the kind of thing I dream people will say about my writing, but it rarely happens. So thank you dearly!

Oh, and I apologise for breaking your heart! Maybe I will have to write some heart-mending fluff to fix it :)

Well, well, well done.

This is exquisitely, brilliantly vivid - his heart-breaking loneliness is achingly tangible. You've given me fantastic insight into Draco.

And dear god - tear my heart out some more, yeah?

I am so proud of you.

I don't think I have to tell you how much this comment means to me. I think you know. I hope you know. But thank you from the bottom of my can-canning heart :)

Oh, and the tangibility of the loneliness? You know what they say... write what you know :/

... God, that was beautiful.

I can relate, too. I used to live in a house literally lined with mirrors, I don't know who decided that was a good idea, but every time I'd break down I'd have to see it.

Thank you so much. I marvel that I have the ability to produce beauty. It's like the Bright Eyes song 'Waste of Paint':

"Thank you, please, but your flattery is truly not becoming me... no beauty could have come from me."

Damned low self-esteem :)

Btw, the first image that came into my head about your old house with all those mirrors was that of a funhouse! Although, obviously, with a notable absence of fun.
