I really love what you did with the name things, and how you handled Nero/Ayel, especially..... And that little extra 'kick' to the mind meld was wonderfully fitting.... if disturbing D:
Have you read Countdown, then? I am assuming so... It seemed to me that one thing that would make the Spock-Nero relationship that much more personal was the mind meld between them, and how really all Spock got were images/impressions of Mandana, and presumably of how much nero loved her..... The dream scene at the beginning of your story made me think about that more.
Yeah, I was trying to convey a little of that in the fic, but I couldn't figure out how to fit it in--how Nero trusted Spock with everything he loved, and felt so utterly betrayed when Spock failed him.
I'm glad you liked it, and sorry for disturbing you!
Its okay, I can stand to be a little disturbed now and then :)
I have been thinking for a long time about how to write something about that mindmeld - it just seems so *important*, but it hasn't come out right yet.
Great googli moogli. That was... intense doesn't even begin to cover it. I want to write you coherent compliments on the structure, diction, and characterization, but I think I need to go outside in the sunshine for a few minutes.
So here's the best compliment I can give: you have wrecked me with this. *shivers*
Sorry for wrecking you! And thanks for the compliments. :) I was planning on writing more semi-angsty fics soon, but after finishing this I think I need to just write happy fluff for a while. >.>
Beautiful!!!! I didn't know how I would feel about reading Nero/Ayel/Spock because I only like N and A. I don't really ship the three some. But what you had here, where Spock wasn't a willing participant unlike the Kirk/Spock/Uhura fic I've seen. The grudge fucking (more like blow) made it ok. Great fic. My favorite line was
And Nero laughs, because he knows that Ayel usually knows better than to tell his captain information that he already knows.
