Okay, so. I already thought you were brilliant from your AMAZING icons (see: my icon) and now I find out that you write Babe/Roe? I think I'm a little bit in love with you. Not in the creepy way, honest.

My only compliant about this was that it was too short. Which is actually not entirely accurate. The whole fic felt complete, but I'm just greedy and I wish I could read pages more about them.

But joking aside, this was compelling and hauntingly beautiful. I really loved it.

And just as I asked (begged) in regards to your icons, I really hope you write more (especially Babe/Roe, just because I adore them).

Great job! :D

WOW. This is... this is freaking amazing! I'm amazed by the depth of pure, raw, passionate emotion you can capture in only 500 words. (Hell, I can't cross the street 500 words!)

Just gorgeous - please keep writing more, and especially more of these two!

*HUGS*

*GIGANTOR HUGS BACK*

You are MUCH too nice to me!

I've been really impressed both with how much you write, and your gorgeous icons - I'm sorry I haven't commented before! (Dissertation: I'm reading fic/looking at comments more than I'm saying anything.) AND it turns out you're a vidder! Dang! I am nowhere near so skilled - I think I've made all of three icons in my life, and believe me, they weren't worth putting anywhere but my journal, and I *never* have good ideas for vids. Until someone else does one, I mean. :D

*SNUGGLES*

ASKJAS /HUGS BAAACK.

I AM NOT NICE, I AM HONEST.

thank you so much!;; (---and as a chronic lurker i can totally understand this, so.) and /sobs, i am only a vague vidder, in times when i want to put myself through massive amounts of frustration ...i seem to have bad luck with vidding equipment freezing/dying/otherwise being a mess xD and haha, i actually do photography for pay occasionally so graphic-editing (WHICH HAS NOW GONE ON TO TUMBLR OH GOD WHY ARE YOU TAKING OVER MY LIFE FANDOM.) is something that makes sense to me, after editing photos so often! IT JUST TAKES PRACTICE. AND A GOOD VERSION OF PHOTOSHOP HELPS (:

/SPINS YOU.

his so, you know, sometimes you manage to break my heart a little with these wonderful paragraph sized comments on things;; ESPECIALLY ON THINGS THAT HAVE LEFT ME SO ':|' IN MY OWN HEAD AND THEN YOU COME AND BUILD ME RIGHT BACK UP AND I DON'T KNOW IF THIS IS GOOD BECAUSE I AM GOING TO END UP SO COCKY AND I'M GOING TO BLAME THAT ON YOU.

....or in other words, thank you so much for taking the time to comment and tell me what you liked o: ugh /hugs on you. i promise i'll write more of them for you ♥

Oh lord, I'm going to embarrass myself by trying to articulate the proper response to this fic without sounding like a complete idiot, aren't I? AREN'T I

THE GUSHING WILL NOW COMMENCE

Just, ugh, wow, wow, and more wow's. This was so beautiful and haunting and all kinds of wonderful. I think what got me most was the atmosphere you created. It felt so vivid and real; I thought I was actually there, intruding on a personal moment between two people. It was stunning.

I have to agree with the rest of the ~comment-ers~ as well: it was raw, full of emotion, incredible, you have a gift, and my greedy self wishes there was more :3 And in case you didn't already notice, ME LOVES THIS FIC LIKE BURNING <3

I HAVE THIS PROBLEM WITH FICS ALL THE TIME and then end up leaving oneliner 'this is beautiful' comments and feeling helpless about it---but anyways, this is what i mean to say:

ugh;; THANK YOU SO MUCH FOR THE WONDERFUL COMMENT AND THE ENCOURAGEMENT AND THE raw, full of emotion bit because i really hope to continue this trend in the future and have you guys really feel the emotion in the writing. so to hear that, and all of this comment, THANK YOU SO MUCH! ♥

MEEP.

Heffron is standing out in the open. Gene’s fingers curl around the cuffs of his jacket as he pauses, and he looks up to the same spot above the treeline that Heffron is gazing at.
