Oh, this is lovely!

He murmurs her name thickly around the cloying weakness; side-effects of the blood-letting, both. He is equal parts terrified and enraptured.

Closes his eyes and thinks, inexplicably, of Stefan.

THANK YOU! I think I've decided that this combination is my (current) favourite thing!

Your icon is perfection!!

[swirlsofblue]

Wow. This is so amazingly beautiful, and Damon's descriptions have a really truthful and haunting feel to them.

I would quote my favourite lines, but I suspect I would end up quoting the whole thing. *mems*

Oh, btw, if you're interested, my icon ramblings that ensued from the icons you picked; http://swirlsofblue.livejournal.com/6819.html#cutid1

Thank you! I'm so pleased you liked it!

And yes, I'm totally interested! I'll check them out right now!

God, you are so incredibly lyrical, it just slays me. It's like the entire fic is just poetry with a meteric scheme, and lines you can quote. And I LOVE this alternate exploration of Damon/Katherine/Stefan, where they're not only competitors, but lovers in their own right (hee, how I've spoilt you :D) And Damon's interiority, the jealousy, the lust, the need, everything, GUH. And it's ever-changing, even-growing and the best description of Damon's incessant wait for Katherine ever. Not to mention, her description and his excuses, oh, Damon.

JUST WRITE THESE THREE FOREVER, OKAY?

[waltzmatildah]

(hee, how I've spoilt you :D) I DO! I DO SEE THIS!!

JUST WRITE THESE THREE FOREVER, OKAY? You know what? I seached the ficathon for prompts featuring these three and this was the only one I could find (besides my own - and I didn't think it was good fic etiquette to fill your own prompts!), luckily it fit what I wanted to write perfectly, but HOW CAN NOT MORE PEOPLE WANT THIS THREESOME IN THEIR LIVES?! There is so much D/E/S prompting going on but not D/S/K (the original threesome?! - until we find out what the originals were up to of course!). I DO NOT UNDERSTANDDDDD THISSSSS!!!

*is legit bewildered*

Oh. My. God.

He wants to plunge his fists into her chest and then follow them whole. To take up a permanent kind of residence in the only place that ever felt like home to him.

I want him to do that tooooooo!

This is glorious from start to finish. Such a sense of longing from Damon the whole way through.

In the bone-numbing absence of anything else, his quest to rescue her becomes a single-minded mantra. A blood-slicked swath carved through city after city after never-ending city.
Because YES. This is what he does. He has nothing else to hold on to. His brother is not who he thought, and the only thing he wants is her. Because she might be the one who can make sense of it for him.

Though they both will come to recognise that Stefan leaves him first in all the ways that will forever count the most.
Bloody Stefan. It's always his fault. Forever and ever.

He hates her then. And his brother, too.

He hates himself the most.
They are all so gloriously screwed up.

I LOVE THIS IF YOU DIDN'T NOTICE.

Thank you so much! I'm still not entirely sure where this fic came from (though, my recent fetish for all things Damon/Stefan is definitely courtesy of youcallitwinter!!), but I'm pleased that it came from somewhere because now I just want to write ALL THE K/D/S fic!!

(and all the Gail/Luke fic and all the Rebekah fic and just... ALL THE FIC!).

Bloody Stefan. It's always his fault. IT ISSS! Haha!

Thank you so much for loving this!

I think you are one of those writers who are able to capture the real essence of a character.

Your Damon is perfect. Your way of describing his feelings make them and him real.

I love this, adding to my memories.

[waltzmatildah]

I am so pleased you think my Damon works. I find his point of view so intriguing to explore because there are SO MANY facets to him that are really quite subtle amid all the flashing lights obvious stuff.

Anyway, THANK YOU SO MUCH!
