I think I go through a box of tissues each time you update. I can't even form a coherent thought over "poor Blainers!" right now. This is such a heart-wrenching story but I am still so thankful that you've taken the time to write it. ♥
Thank you so much for the comment, and all of your comments throughout the entire story. I really appreciated them, and it means so much to me that you've stuck it out and were able to get something out of it right up until the end :D
I just realised I missed the epilogue! I can't believe that. I fail. You're amazing for writing this, though, even though it's such a heart breaking story, you made kept the intensity and made it real. I utterly adore you for that. ♥
This story is superbly written. It makes me want to scream in frustration because I know the circus act that is commonly called the media, twists and distorts events to their own liking, without thought to the people behind the news, and how the sensationalising may be effecting or harming those people.
The emotions that are torn from every single character is amazing. Seriously are you a psychologist? Your grasp of human behavior and thoughts is astounding. I started reading this because I wanted another tale depicting a Klaine romance. What I got was so much more than that. You really have opened my eyes to the struggles some people go through. There's not much more I can say before I start gushing enough to fill the ocean. I hope to read more from you in the near future.
OMG I'm so flattered that you're asking if I'm a psychologist. I'm seriously so thrilled that you asked, because I am not, but if you're asking, I'm going to assume it means I'm doing a good job representing them (or at least that I'm not completely misrepresenting haha).
Thank you so much for all of your comments as I was writing this. I'm a little overwhelmed by all the fantastic feedback this story has gotten.
This is astounding. Just, completely fucking astounding, and incredible, and brilliant, and marvelous, and astonishing, and basically everything good in the world. I can't believe this story is real, I can't believe you are real, that this much talent and empathy and a mindblowing amount of caring could exist in one person to be able to write a story like this. What an incredible journey.
"I wanted to feel like there was more to my life than what he's made of it."
"I'm just... really tired of other people telling me who I am. I'm ready to find out for myself."
There were so many lines and passages wherein I had to stop reading to pull myself together (Dr. Hong and Cynthia and DETECTIVE BECKETT WARREN!!! YES!!!), but these ones in particular nearly knocked me down from where I was sitting. Blaine. This wonderful boy. This brave, brave man. (Dumbledore, 1997) (lol) Your character work with him is a work of art, you never tiptoed around the most difficult shit, and you masterfully acknowledged and broke down every single thread of the
( ... )
Thank you! And I'm glad you liked Detective Not-Beckett haha. I kept telling myself I would not do any crossovers for this story, but I still couldn't stop from moving her to NY and imagining her future fighting crime with Not-Castle in the end xD
And yes, he really did have to grow up a lot during his recovery, which is something that I hadn't really been expecting when I started to write this. I don't know why I wasn't expecting it, but maybe I hadn't thought about it quite in those terms? But I think one of the reasons this story is so much longer than the first one is because it took so much to get him to a place where he could start to work through what happened. This whole thing got a little unwieldy by the end haha.
I am proud of what I've written but I'll not lie, I'm also really proud that I wrote something that made someone want to go out drinking with me, as that's my default response whenever I read anything I like. In a weird way I feel like I've arrived :p
This is so beautiful. I love Blaine's whole journey. He's not fully healed by any means but he's on his way and I'm just so proud of how far he's come. I'm really glad you had those snippets from the future so we could see that things did work out and that those two men are still working together to be the best versions of themselves. Side note: I want to wring Brenner's neck but that's another story and good lord you made him so creepy and sleazy. Plus, that whole scene between Blaine and Cynthia, ripped out my heart. I didn't realize that she was the same age he was when Brenner took him. That just takes this whole story to the next level because their parents must just be all over the place. Having them both in the same house. Ok. Moving on to the epilogue. <3 ~klaineoutbitches
Thank you so much for your comments (and the ones you sent to my Tumblr, which are awesome and I WILL respond to them soon - I love hearing about the specific lines that people like).
If Brenner was real, I would be more than happy to let you at him haha. He's so creepy. I really hated writing him. And yeah, when I wrote in the part about Cynthia, I made her 6 so Blaine wouldn't have even known she existed when he came back home. I knew that would eventually set up this scene, which would happen when she was seven, so I'm so happy to see that it made an impact.
...Oh my god, I really overthought this beast of a story when I was plotting it out, I think xD
