I really enjoyed this. The way you write Nina is so believable and *real*, it reads in that same quite and understated way she was in the film and I like that, alot. and her mother comes across just as overbearing and terrifying too.

Great work, darling! I don't ever read femslash but something about that movie just tempted me into reading this :)

Peace,
Caspe

I ended up flailing incoherently at this comment. I wasn't sure I'd be able to write something that kept Nina suitably close to Nina in the film, so I'm really glad that you thought I managed it. And that you liked. And that her mother was creepy enough.

*flails again*

Thank you! ♥

Thank you for reading and commenting. I knew I wasn't the only one who wanted a happier ending for them. I'm glad you liked it!
