OMGOMGOMGOMG. FLAIL FLAIL FLAIL. I--THIS IS-- YOU WONDERFUL, WONDERFUL GENIUS YOU. All of this is just so wonderfully done, so perfectly written, and the characters and EVERYTHING. Because EMILY and DUVALL and just how Henry and Nicholas just seem to keep pulling at each other with their own agendas and GAH. I AM SO NOT COHERENT FROM THE AWESOME OF THIS.

Nicely written! It felt like I was reading a novel through most of it!

God, I, oh, just.... *deep breath*

This is gorgeous. All the detail you put into it, and the way their relationship started, and Nicholas' loyalty and how Blackwood fled because... ohhhh so wonderful! I'm so glad you finished this!

I adore, gah! I adore the whole thing, but I just love Emily! I love how you gave her the sensible head on her shoulders and Nicholas is the one with flights of fancy, and ohh I'm sure I was just as disappointed as Nicholas when he and Henry didn't get their holiday in Vienna.

And how Nicholas just takes to his bed after Blackwood leaves, that depression, ohhh it hurts so pretty. And then, the end! THE END IS BEAUTIFUL! Oh, how Nicholas realizes it's Henry or nothing, and then MORTYCAKES! YOU INCLUDED MORTYCAKES! YOU BRILLIANT PERSON! This is just wonderful! I can't even begin to describe my squee upon reading this for the first time!

(I'm so, so sorry for how late this reply is, my exams have made life extremely horrible lately!)

Firstly, just, wow. Your words brought so much happiness to me for so long, I can't begin to explain how much! I love how you understood what I meant for the characters without me having to spell it out, I so hoped people would. And the end was probably the second or third thing I planned, strangely, it was all the stuff in the middle that took so long to do.

But, um, yeah, I'm kind of the one in an incoherent mess and unable to do anything but squee. Thankyouthankyouthankyou!
