*hides* Oh.

It's perfect. It's Him, perfectly Him, and it's so cold, and angry--except the parts with Aronnax, which are painfully not, painfully sweet and open and pearly-grey in between the dark parts--and despair (despairing isn't the write word, not with the 'ing', because that changes the sound of the word, and it's absolutely despair, alone). It hurts awfully.

But it's perfect.

*cuddles you* Oh, thank you, honey. I'm so glad it works. And, gah, A. He's that person who opens you up when all you want is to Stay Shut.

I'm awfully tempted to let Despair join the fun over at DF. She spends too much time with no one but her mirrors.

[rainbowjehan]

He is! That's precisely what he does. It's very awful sometimes, and sometimes wonderful.

Ooo. I shan't dissuade you.

[tiamatschild]

*nodnod* And either way, Nemo's not quite sure what to do with it.

Ack! I have six already, I don't need to be Despair's lifeline too...!

...I'm going to do it at some point, aren't I?

[elefwin]

I love you. literarily.

[tiamatschild]

*beams* Thank you!

[ilthit]

...Wow.
