I just started reading your fic today. I should have left comments on each chapter as each was wonderful and deserving of comments but I confess I was enjoying your story so much that I ran like a 6 year old to the next chapter.

You say that this is your first BBM fic but I can't believe that this is your first time as a writer. Your storytelling skills are just so good! You obviously know quite a lot about the old west and have made it so interesting. I love your characterizations of Jack and Ennis and feel like you have really captured their essence. I just loved how you developed their friendship, for these two lonely boys a friendship with someone who understands them is priceless. You captured their longing for each other just beautifully! When Jack tells Ennis that he could have him I nearly swooned and the aftermath of taking "that risk" and Jack's fear that he has lost his only real friend was just heartbreaking.

Wonderfully, wonderfully done and I really look forward to your next chapter!

Thank you so much for your comments. I'm glad that you're enjoying it and were able to catch up.

This is my first BBM fic but as you say not the first time I've written. I just haven't done it in a long while so I'm still feeling a bit rusty.

I'm glad you like the characterization and that you feel I captured the essence of the characters. I'm trying to be as true to them as I can within the frame work of the au!au setting while still showing them as younger versions of themselves.

Thanks for reading and giving the story a chance.

Terrific chapter - angst and all! You've hit just the right notes - Ennis's conflicting emotions, his desperation and Jack's certainty and desire dashed by his hurt and sadness. I was glad to see Charlie again, too. I think both Ennis and Jack can benefit from his friendship and experience. Charlie will understand Ennis's turmoil - it's not just that he's fearful or stubborn, etc. - there's a whole set of very complex issues involved here that aren't quickly resolved. This is really fine writing!

Thanks,
Marie
