"Touch me again, and I will make you hurt worse than this." After a moment's consideration, she adds: "And not in a good way."

I love that Cara feels the need to clarify this. I can see her eyes narrowing as she considers that, in her world, this isn't necessarily a threat. And then she gets scowly and makes sure that Kahlan knows that she means business.

This was highly entertaining. Good job.

YES, OMG, that's exactly how I saw it. Very happy it ~came through~. :D :D :D

I am glad you were entertained! Thanks a bunch!

Oh this was so good. Damn, confessor!Kahlan is so much better that the real one. *sigh* She and Cara would have so much fun.

At the sight of Cara, Richard stares some more, and when he notices the state of the room, he rubs his hand across his brow. "What happened to the room? Was she difficult?"

Cara traces a hand across the cut on her forehead, focusing on the dull ache of it. "Very."

I don't know why this made me laugh so much. Lulz

No explanations or unwanted tension, or Kahlan wanting to discuss her feelings. In fact, it is as if nothing ever happened, and, in Cara's opinion, that is really the best way things could turn out.

But i want Kahlan to talk about her feeeeeeelings and Cara rolling her eyes but deep down loving every second of it. *pout*
You want me to suffer, don't you? Gahhh confessor Kahlan come baaaaack. *pouts some more*

Confessor!Kahlan is hilarious. I wanted five more episodes with her, hanging out with Cara and snarking at Richard. I still prefer the real Kahlan, though. SHE HAS BOTH FEELINGS AND BAD-ASSERY, IT'S A FABULOUS COMBINATION.

Thank you! Glad you enjoyed it. :D

Awesome story, convincing in all parts...
Cara´s emotions under her surfaces are great and Confessor/Kahlan is very special in the best ways... :)
I love how your moving from torn to hunger to princess. I still think, Hunger was the real beginning of something more then just friendship. I am glad, you briefly focus on that "she will see me as a monster"-thing! (*grins* that´s almost like I saw it in "shocked")
Amazing!!
Thanks for posting... :)

Yeah, so much agreement on Hunger. Cara ~cares~ about what Kahlan thinks of her! It's too adorable for words. It was so painful to write that bit when the real Kahlan wasn't there to support her bb.

Thank you! :D

Hee, yay! I'm thrilled you did! :D :D :D

You, awesome, awesome person. You just made my Thursday much much better (cause Thursdays suck).

FEELINGS. And Cara. Cara having feelings. And confessor!Kahlan being insightful and devious and making confessed!Kahlan talk about her sexytimes with Richard.

(and yes, I realize that all the feedback I have ever left you can be summed up as FEELINGS+CARA+KAHLAN = ME. FLAILING)

Kahlan tilts her head, looking at Cara intently for a moment. Reaching out a hand, she brushes a stray hair away from Cara's cheeks. Cara flinches, the tips of Kahlan's fingers barely touching her face.

"How odd," Kahlan says.

This part killed me in the best possible way. Now I can't help but want to read about Kahlan getting some of the memories back and being very confused about it. And then Cara would also have feelings about wanting Kahlan to remember, and somehow it all would end up with them making out. It would be awesome.

Was this fic one any of the WIPs you posted the other day?

hibernate February 25 2011, 20:04:34 UTC

Aaaah, thank you! FEELINGS+CARA+KAHLAN = ME FLAILING ALSO.

The forest sex with Richard amuses me. Kahlan was SO OBVIOUS, Cara must have known EXACTLY why they were ~taking a walk~, even if Richard didn't. LOL, POOR CARA. They should have asked her along.

and somehow it all would end up with them making out.

:DDD Honestly, the only way I could finish this story was to make up a sequel in my head where exactly this happens. I can't deal with unhappy endings without make-outs.

I finished this story awhile ago, so it wasn't part of the WIPs, no.
