Oh wow this was so flippin' fantastic!

At first I was a bit confused as to how / if it would work, but you pulled it off so well. The imagery, ah, the whole fic was just so dreamy, and I could see all the images from the movie in my head too, this was just done so well!

awesome! i loved the imagery in the movie so much, but i wasn't sure if i could recreate it in fic - so, thanks!

[therumjournals]

don't be sad! it's a happy ending! thanks :)

so good that it gave me goosebumps and made my throat ache with emotion. loved the almost creepy, otherworldliness of the other place. and the dialogue was just perfect and i want to hug it. at first i thought the innocence thing wasn't going to work out (innocence in this fandom lolwat) but the strangeness of it all really grew on me. so good. :)

<3 this comment so much. i wasn't sure how the innocence thing would work out (particularly innocence + sex) but i'm glad you became immersed in the world. thanks!!

I am just floored by the awesomeness that is this story. How many of us have wanted to flee from 'real' life into a real of innocence.

I'm so glad Zach found Chris. I hop they get to live happily ever after.

How many of us have wanted to flee from 'real' life into a real of innocence. - the story kind of evolved as a surreal journey - but the most real aspect of it, i think, was writing chris as someone who wants to escape.

thank you so much!

I haven't seen the movie.

That's why i was utterly confused while reading this fic.

I mean... the way they all act like... WTF?? xD

but nonetheless, I've enjoyed reading it! <3 also:

“The boat took me there.”

Zach nodded solemnly. “My feet took me here.”

that was my absolute fav! :D

ha ha, yeah, i imagine it would be a little confusing without having seen the movie, but thanks for reading and i'm glad you liked it anyway!! and yay, you quoted one of my favorite lines too :-) thanks!!
