This probably the lovelie and most poetic piece of 1d fic I've ever read, not to mention the best niall (when he's not shipped with food, haha . Forgive me) /zayn fic I've ever laid eyes upon. So wonderful. Honestly.

[sky_somedays]

thank you so much bb. that's such a lovely thing to say. C: I'm so glad you enjoyed it ♥

I love how you can basically ship anyone with anyone in 1D. Makes for a lovely diversity : )

Anyway, I loved this. I'll admit that it wasn't a pairing I'd thought about, but Zayn is the most confusing of them all (except maybe for Louis. Or Harry) and this was really nice, sweet and deep and quietly aching.

Loved it.

I'm glad you enjoyed! It's true, they are shippable in every combination, bless them. Thank you for reading and for such a lovely comment ♥

Aw, you're welcome : )

And yours is I think the best fanfic in the 1D fandom (which needs MORE FANFIC, goddamnit), especially now that papperclipbitch has disappeared from the circulation, so you deserve it!

Cheers!

(PS: Lovely icon. Makes me smile every time I look at it. OH, HARRY.)

[taquiito]

[sky_somedays]

So I came here because of a rec from tumblr and... I'm extremely blown away. I've been craving for some really good Ziall fic for awhile now (especially since I just got into the fandom) and you just... delivered. The way you describe things is breath taking and is extremely fluid, and these lines were my absolute favourite, "It’s at that point that Niall realizes he’s not digging anymore. Sometimes Zayn’s not layers. Sometimes he’s folds upon folds and each turn shows something different." Thank you for sharing such a wonderful work!

Thank you for such a lovely comment! I'm so glad you liked it ♥

I don't even remember how I got here tbh, but I'm glad that I did. because, dear lord this is amazing.
I was thinking these day that I never found like a fic that I totally agree with the way the Zayn is portrayed, but you really captured the essence of it. At least, the way that I see him.

I love the way you developed the story.
Starting with one giving his opinion, revealing his feelings about the other and also putting a word to summarize it (the first part was Polite Exterior ) and then continues with the scene itself, the interaction between them.
And each "paragraph" the word that summed up where the relationship is going, changes. Polite Exterior - Appraising - familiarity...

They go for walks sometimes, and speak in abstract shapes and colours, just letting themselves exist for a while. Niall stops hearing and seeing. He tastes and he feels his way through those walks Oh, this part is my favorite, I think summarize this fic, like it is some fragile beauty that you really have to feel to understand. OMG, I don't even know

alkdjfdkfjd thank you for saying such lovely things ;-; I'm so glad you liked it and that you enjoyed the pairing and everything. It means a lot that you liked the story development too, that's one of the things I put the most effort into. Just - yeah. ♥♥

[moneeypenny]

I do! I'm super busy with uni atm, but come the summer I'm hoping to start posting fic again. I love this fandom too much to leave :3
