Hullo! My name is Aoife. I used to write fanfic...

[aoifene]

I feel like this post should come with an introduction since I've been virtually nonexistent in LJ/Fandom for a long time now. *laughs* I feel so disconnected from it all which is a good thing and a bad thing. For one I've re-discovered what it feels like to be writing for me again. I think I've lost that along the way. It's nice to just write. No

Welcome back, darling. But... er... you know me. Is this going to kill me?!?!? Because I want to run away, but it's YOU so I want to read it anyway! *wibbles*

[aoifene]

Thanks, love! *hugs* I've missed you!

Er... a part of me is saying no since you are not completely averse to angst and this arc still has some major H/D loveage going on but jamie2109 is telling me that yes, it will kill you because it is not fluffy in the slightest. *laughs* So I guess what I'm trying to say is that it is your call, hon! Although this arc does come with some lovely lillithium's art in the second part *nudge nudge*

[alaana_fair]

Well that's no help!!! :-D Okay, I'll put it on my list, and read it when I have time to recover if it kills me. *squishes*

[aoifene]

*laughs* I know! Sorry! But my definition of happy is not quite the same as everyone else's! *laughs* I do think this one isn't going to kill you tbh. You did like the original Prodigal after all! And I'd like to think that I converted you to angst whoredom last year even if it just a little! :)

Lovely, lovely...you can still break me with a phrase, dear, no matter how long you've been away. *loves*

Glad my angst still has bite even though I've shelved it for a while. Thank you for reading (and betaing!)

&hearts you madly.

Beautiful trilogy. I'm glad you left a possibility of some future happiness.

:) Thank you! I'm delighted you enjoyed it. I always did like my stories to have a possible happy ending. After all, why go through the pain when there is no end in sight? :)

[easilymused1956]

Yes. It's one thing to be left crying at the end of a story in happiness, or even sadness. But with hope.

Quite another when you're crying in anger or frustration.

Quite true! Also icon love! :D

[aoifene]

:D I knew how much you adored this arc so I knew had to come back and finish it, if only to apologize for being such a shitty friend. Does this mean I'm forgiven? :)

I did want to end it with a flicker of hope. To temper the utter horror of what the boys are going through. I think on most days that will be enough to save them. It won't be easy, of course. We've seen how potent the mirror's hold is on Draco in DESIRE. But I do believe that they'd make it out into the light...someday.

I am so happy you enjoyed it. I have been away from writing for a really long time (since world cup, I believe) so I'm just ecstatic that my writer's voice is still comprehensible! ♥

Delighted you enjoyed it! Thank you for reading!
