Eee this was so great! I love Esca the fierce little freerunner, it's such a brilliant idea, especially given the running which features in the movie.

I can totally see Esca doing freerunning--and Marcus being jealous and wanting at the same time. It reminds me of when Esca goes on the wolf hunt in the book, and Marcus has to stay behind. Marcus is just perfect here--longing but also trying to be so stoic. Awwww--*pets him*

Mithras must indeed favor you, for you have once again found victory on the battlefield!

This was awesome! I totally second seascribe's comment about wanting to read all of the stories about Esca doing parkour omg.

Like riventhorn, I thought of how Esca was able to go on the wolf hunt (in the novel, of course), and how poor, lame Marcus had to stay behind and hear about it all later.

That's a lovely image, of Esca running and tumbling through space. Great fic!

Why... why did you stop there? ;___; This is fabulous and a little bit heartbreaking and all I want is *more* of it someday, please~. Gosh...
