Aw no.. Poor Daniel having to loose him like that. It was a beautiful story and although an extreemly sad one it was a perfectly fitting ending for it. A great example of how Rorschach's mind would work to get the truth out to the world.

Lovely and sad. Thanks!

[writerbunny]

Thanks! I did have some trouble imagining why the New Frontiersman would be believed, and then I remembered that Nova Express was basically Adrian's bitch, and so...

Glad you liked it!

Oh God...the last bit was absolutely brilliant. Well done. The ending is heartbreaking, but so real, and believable. The description of Dan's feelings for Rorschach was simply beautiful. This is how things should have been ;_;

I'm adding this to my permanent memories. You did us proud ;_;

Hurrah, I've been mem'd! Wow, that's awesome! Thanks so much!

The poem was a lovely touch. I'm choosing to believe that Rorschach really did love Daniel, even though Daniel thinks it was all a lie.

Well, that's certainly your interpretation, though I couldn't possibly comment OMG OMG TRUEFACTS FOR REAL on it.

Sorry to disappoint? Glad you liked it anyway!

oh god this ripped my heart out by pieces.... I am almost in tears. Aww, man. And I listened to Chelsea Hotel like you suggested, and it just.... hurt even worse. (But it's a wonderful song.) This was definitely one of the most powerful pieces I've ever read. Beautiful but heartbreaking. *sniff*

Write some happy now?

[writerbunny]

Ohhh, no worries. If my next evil plan succeeds, I shall give everyone on my f-list DIABETES! MWAHAHAHA-*cough*

But yes, much happier (and crackier) next time. Glad you enjoyed!

Ok, now a better review. (the first one was just to have the first comment. haha)

I listened to the song and it made a world of a difference. You are a wonderful writer and I hope that never goes to waste. The way you conveyed emotions was mind blowing. I cried, and it takes alot for me to cry. Congrats on that one. I agree the poem he left for Daniel, he did love him. I don't really have anything else to say that I can express in words.

You captured the characters so well, something that is damn near impossible. It was believable.

*stands up and claps hands*

Thank you for this.

[writerbunny]

Hee! Well, at least you didn't just go "FIRST!"

*bows, and passes tissues* Aw, don't cry! That means an awful lot to me, though! I'm glad it made such an impact. (And I hope that everyone will forgive me when my next fic is gratuitous fluff...)

Grazie! Mille grazie!

[natureslove]

More? Yay. Happy fictions make me happy. I home it's just as or more smutty. You do that well.
