Oh goodness, the tragic love aspect to this story is really quite wonderful. I love the interaction between Roy and Tim when they're in private; you really showed how much they care for one another.

Of course, the frustration that they cannot be publicly as affectionate or open just brings it home how difficult this is for them. Roy's reaction and stilted abilities to comfort and care for Tim when he was almost injured was really heartbreaking.

Also, terrific job on the language. It definitely has that middle-ages feel to it, and helps contextualize and set it all the better.

Great job!! I just love this 'verse so much. You are developing it beautifully and I cannot wait to see where you take it!!

So glad you liked this hon! Roy's and Tim's secret love affair is really heartbreaking, especially since they both know it can't really go anywhere.

And I'm glad the language works for this, I tried to make it sound in the right ear, even changing Clint's name to Clinton - Clint just sounded to modern compared to everything else.

Thank you so much! I'm glad you're enjoying this verse and I have to say it has been so much fun!
