G U R L WHAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAT YOU GO THIS UP SO QUICKLY! LOL.

But Oh Mah Gahd. I. Love. This.

In this story, it is always the beast come for the maiden.

The beast: a wolf, a man, a heavy body pressing a lighter one down, the sharp crisp blade of an axe, the unnoticed grind of familial manipulation, a broken oath, a broken bottom lip, the weight of a bronze crown on too small a head.

You're killing me, Smalls. Omg their interactions - both in AFfC and in this fic, and I love how you've wound it all together - are pitch perfect. Those last two lines, UGH. This is just wonderful, and so good, Michelle!!! DAYUM.

[falseeeyelashes]

LOL I KNOW! I never write this fast!

Haha, but duuuuuude, I am so glad you like! THANK YOU! Ugh, I feel like these two might become A Thing I Am Interested In now, lol. I AM THE WORST!

[magisterequitum]

WHATTTTTTT ARE WORDS.

This is so amazingly good. I mean, I love this dynamic and their actions and Jeyne as the witch on the Crag. And Jeyne, she's so compelling here, and Jaime's thoughts are perfect.

Love this and you are awesome.

[falseeeyelashes]

Ahhhhhh, thank you, dude!

And oh man, I feel like this Jaime/Jeyne thing is really eating my brain? Like, I kinda want to flesh out this whole TWO YEARS LATER idea where Jeyne has become this reviled creature alone at the Crag and Jaime's still . . . Jaime, lol, and idk, maybe he's wounded and it's what happened with Robb all over again -- the two of them alone at the Crag as he recovers -- and he's supposed to deliver her to her new husband post-war, etc., etc. IDK, SPIT-BALLING HERE, BUT BASICALLY I AM NOW REALLY INTO THESE TWO HAHA.

[magisterequitum]

Um, I am all in favor of that idea. It sounds amazing and so good. You should so do it. I would be DOWN.

I haven't gotten into this fandom (yet), but I just wanted to pop in and say how beautiful/sharp/moody/dark/visceral this entire thing was. You do erotic like no other, damnit.

[falseeeyelashes]

Thank you so much, dude! I am flattered to hear you enjoyed, and ahhhh I had no idea you read these books too! AWESOME!

[lusimeles]

See, that's the thing, I haven't actually read the books/watched the series yet - I just really liked your fic! It's making me want to start, actually, but my god it just looks like there's so much of it...

[falseeeyelashes]

Haha, that's an even greater compliment then! ;D But oh man, yeah, the series definitely looks daunting from the outset, haha. But it's crazy how fast you get into it! I've read three of the five books within the last month or so, haha. IT'S INSANE! Also, insanely fun. I definitely recommend it!

I don't even know how I stumbled here in the first place but whoever you are this is magnificent. The words rings within my mind long after I read them. I'm not even fond of neither Jeyne W. neither Jaime :o (but I don't dislike them either ^^).

Oh wow.

I'll wait a bit and will read your other works :). But consider this: you have a new fan ^^.

I found this fic via one of the people I follow on Tumblr and I am BEYOND glad they recced it and I obliged to read it becasue WOW O_O

I've honestly adored everything of yours I've read and this is certainly no exception <33 I've never even considered this pairing before, and yet somehow all I can think of atm are all the different post-war possibilities the two of them could have--now THAT'S the power of good fic!!

&& you have such a wonderful way with words, I could easily quote the entire thing and call it "my favorite part" <3__<3
