Fic: Into Dust (Heroes; Claire/Adam)

[the_grynne]

I'm not sure if I have a sense of humour that translates well into this pairing... Oh well.

Claire and Adam. PG. Mourning is a young man's sport.

I want to tear up the earth until I find you,
so I can kiss your noble skull,
unbandage your mouth, and bring you back to life.
- Miguel Hernandez, 'Elegy'

I love your voice, I hope you know. And I love this quite a bit. The way you say volumes (about the changing world, about Adam and Claire and Peter together) in just a few words.

Thank you very much!

Without dwelling too much on it, I did want a sense that it was a somewhat rundown, dystopic world that they were moving through together. It seems to me that the future in fan fiction usually go to one of two extremes: either the burnt-out post-apocalyptic landscape; or a world that's little different to the present, just more technologically advanced. So I was consciously trying for something a little different to that.

Very nice. I enjoy the mood you've created here, a very apt description for beings who have/will see centuries.

Thank you! I'm glad you enjoyed it.

I'm completely charmed by Adam/Claire, really, and you write a wonderful voice for both of them. I like this quite a lot. I love the idea of them visiting Peter's grave together.

Adam/Claire presents lots of interesting possibilities; I'm glad I got to writing them.

Thanks very much. :)
