This is gorgeous. Bonnie is a favorite of mine because of that ruthless, thorough exploration of and engagement with her power, and you've captured it beautifully.

Thank you so much. And that's exactly what I adore about Bonnie and what makes her so utterly compelling, her engagement with power and how we understand her - in all her rage, and grief, and pain, and determination, and love through that prism.

Thanks for reading and for your kind words!

Dear god this is fantastic. And broken, and so sorrowfully harrowing, just the way I like it. Wonderful stuff. I really love your writing style!

Thank you so much, bb!

I think I'm slightly obsessed with Bonnie's sense of heroism (as problematic as it can be tbh) coupled with her ruthlessness and this story helped me work through some of that.

Thanks so much for your kind words!
