Very lovely writing! So much said there, with so few words. *g* It's nice getting a look into Marcus' head!

I really liked the mood....It made me think of grey skies and quiet and barren hills. Very evocative.

This is just.

I don't even know what to say. I don't feel like I can express myself sufficiently about this.

It's beautiful. And it is bittersweet, biting at times like the cold you so poetically, nostalgically, and effortlessly describe here...bittersweet, fleeting warmth, but so hopeful and genuine.

You are an incredible writer, you truly are. This wasn't fanfiction this was just...WRITING. Excellent, raw, encompassing words. I felt like I was there, in the cold, in the rain and mist, in the anxiety and fear with Marcus...in his hope and his bond and their unspoken love for one another.

So I don't know if I put that into words so well. But I just wanted you to know how much I loved this, and how intensely memorable it is. Thank you for sharing it with us.
