fic: out, out, brief candle! [anakin, obi-wan, prequel trilogy]

[albumsontheside]

It seems that Macbeth soliloquy won't leave me alone. And yes, yes this is a fic post. A poor, rusty fic post from an author who has clearly forgotten how to write. But, what can I say? There are no more excuses.

Also: I am out of London until Weds - don't know if I'll have internet!

Happy easter, flist!

First of all: FIC POST ASDFJKL;. I told you it would come back! *highfive!*

Anyway. This. Is. Amazing.

I love how you've woven the soliloquy into this, and the structure itself, how it gets shorter and more fragmented as you approach the end. Certain details are great and very telling: sleeping with their boots on, radiation aging Anakin prematurely, the failed attempt at banter on Jabiim. Very effective.

Good job, man. It's great to see fic from you again! <3

IT'S GOOD TO SEE YOU AGAIN, GORGEOUS! WHERE HAVE YOU BEEN?

And thanks ♥

I have been on limited internet access lately because of stupid exams and other drama, but that's over and done with. i should be around more now. :)

You're welcome!

[albumsontheside]

Yay! How did your exams go? Mine are coming up :/

[openmoments]

Again, you slay me, bb.

This was heartbreaking and chilling and omfg I love how you incorporated "Hamlet". Seriously. I wonder if I wrote something like this for my course, if my teacher would accept it....hmmmmmm. =D

I always think of their relationship as bright and you definitely help me to balance that out. Fucking beautiful.

Don't speak like that. Because you are amazing, a-fucking-mazing.

Ahhhh, thank you, my love. Macbeth is awesome, non?

how are you? <333

[openmoments]

Shakespeare just rocks my socks. =D

Sick as balls. And I'm supposed to work in a few hours. Not. Impressed.

*hugs* What's wrong, bb?

Wow.... if this is rusty then let me be blessed with a rusty talent.

This is deep and dark and pretty much awe inspiring writing. Just perfect!

[albumsontheside]

Thank you ♥ How are you doing, hun?

[treenahasthaal]

I'm doing a lot better, thank you! Keeping busy, writing a lot (but nothing as good as this peice) and generally geting on with life.

Thanks for asking! : )

[albumsontheside]

I love your writing! Will you post any more of it on LJ? :)

[albumsontheside]

Thank you! I don't believe you're on my flist -- how are you? :)

[albumsontheside]

Sure, go right ahead! I love new friends <3

Oooh, how was it? I feel ashamed for not going to see the London one ...

[januaried]

*whimpers* Geez, are you trying to kill us with angsty heartrending awesomeness? I LOVE the first part, with the unpacking banter and the line about getting used to the language of comradeship rather than slavery, and the last line, and just. *flails incoherently*

Fantastic fic, bb. ♥

Thank you, gorgeous ♥ How's you?
