Loooooooooove! ♥_______♥ I love so much how exhausted and detached and drifty Darwin feels, how being alive and whole again is not easy to get used to.

Thank you! ♥

I want him to come back, but I don't want it to be easy. Because where is the fun in that?

This is awesome. Fix-it Darwin fic was basically the first thing I wrote, but that didn't actually make me stop wanting more stories about how he totally lives, stupid movie, and this is absolutely lovely.

Thank you so much!

Yeah, I just saw the movie for the first time a little over a week ago. The first thing I thought of when I got home was, "But - but - how can Darwin die?!?!" I'm enjoying reading (and writing) the fix-it stories fandom has come up with.

YAY! And double yay for the joy of new fandom to explore.

*grabs you and goes skipping off into a mutant-filled sunset*

Only Alex can hold him together. Only Alex, who’s broken in more ways than Darwin can name, but whose hands and lips are warm and real, reminding him how it feels to be human and alive.

Guh, yes.

Also, the last two sentences, that evolution is so old and so new. LOVE IT!

Trying new things is fun.

(I don't know why Alex is so messed up in my mind. For all we know, he was arrested for spray painting somebody's fence, though somehow I doubt it.)

I'm so glad you liked it! ♥
