Fic: Jolene - Part 2 (Justin/Nick/Lance)

Jun 25, 2006 21:21

This got a bit darker, because I was reading The Vagaries of Disbelief before I wrote the last half.

Thank you to Saba for the read-through, thank you to Justin for completely surprising me with what you did toward the end, and thank you to everybody who commented to this entry for your input about the tenses problem. You might notice I stuck with ( Read more... )

Oooh, I like this! Much more than the first part which I wasn't that enamored with. I like the way this relationship is evolving and the ending is quietly hopeful, just the thing I like :-)

stellamira June 26 2006, 21:21:39 UTC

See, and I liked the first part better. :) Anyway, thank you!

I really liked this and this universe is very interesting and I'm looking forward to what will come next (there will be more, right?).

stellamira June 26 2006, 21:22:57 UTC

Thank you! :)

there will be more, right?

Um, no? I'm not exactly planning it, but it's what I said the last time as well, so I don't really know.

god, this is gorgeous. hard and bleak and still sweeter than i have words in all the right places, and i hope you know that any time you feel like writing in this world, i will surely be there to read it!

Aw, thank you. I kind of love this universe, with everything so rough around them and them trying to maintain a gentle, peaceful place for themselves. I'd kind of like to write more, but can't think of what to write about. It feels like their story's ending here, but on the other hand, that's what I said the last time as well, and look how that turned out.

You know, I randomly found this story tonight while looking through shinyandnew, and I'm terribly glad that I did. The feeling of dichotomy in the universe and in their relationship is so nicely-drawn; subtle and raw at the same time, and you never over-explain anything (which I find is so *hard* not to do in an AU!).

Your economy of words works particularly well in the dystopia-feel of the story, and it's even nicer because you still manage to have such sooty-black delectable and disturbing imagery in it. Plus, the title? Inspired. It was half the reason I clicked on the link. Hee!

Lovely work, and thank you for posting it, even if my comments are as late as a lame duck. *g*

Your comments aren't late at all (my reply, on the other hand, is)! I love it if someone reads a story months after it's written and still takes the time to comment. Thank you. :)

I'm so happy that you liked it, and that you got it even with the lack of explanation, since it was quite hard not to say too much but still keep it understandable. And finding the title was pure luck, I guess, but it fit perfectly, and I'm glad if other people think sot, too.

So I'm tagging old entries at shinyandnew and i came across this fic. And since I hadn't read it (why hadn't I read it??) I just did and oh my god, this is brilliant. I love it. Love love love. It makes me want to write some sort of dystopian AU. You're an inspiration, how does that feel? :P

stellamira May 4 2008, 05:16:05 UTC

I don't know why you hadn't, but I'm glad you have now. :)

oh my god, this is brilliant

Thank you! And it feels great to be an inspiration.
