This was just so lovely, from beginning to end. I accidentally saw the spoilery art before reading the story, and the one of Blaine's gravestone had me very nervous, but I'm SO glad I read it anyway, because this is one of the most epic and beautiful Klaine fics I have ever read. EVER. The pacing was flawless and I honestly didn't know what to expect from one chapter to the next. And the way you described the forest was so incredible - I really felt like I was there with them. Sigh....Klaine forever and ever and ever. What could be better than that?
I put off reading this because I usually don't read "period Klaine", but then I decided to give it a chance, and I'm very happy I did. Lovely story, and your style of writing is beautiful as well.
(I have no idea which movie or book this is based on, though - is it something like "The Wizard of Oz"; extremely well known in the US but virtually unknown outside of the country? Or am I just oblivious?)
This whole thing was so wonderful! I saw on tumblr where you said you ended the fic differently from the original story, so I was pretty sure they'd end up together, but I still got soooo nervous when I started reading the epilogue! And I think it absolutely made sense for you to change the end for the context of this story-- not just because it's Kurt and Blaine and of course we want them to be together, but because it couldn't end like the original. Yes, Winnie loved Jesse, but she could still go back to her parents and fall in love again and live out a normal life, whereas Blaine could never do that. Once he realized he was gay, Kurt and the Hummels were the only option he had for happiness. But even so, I'm glad you had him take the time to really think it through and to spend a few more years with his parents

Absolutely beautiful. This is how I remember wanting the original story to end when I read it. I also highly support any story that kills off Sebastian, so that is a plus, also. :)
