Oh, dear Lord! *wails* I have a paper to finish and *flails* I'll be back when I finish page 9. *whimpers* I suppose I should thank you for providing me with such fantastic incentive...

But I'm pretty sure it all evens out because you have me hooked on this universe. It's more addictive than that chicken pesto pizza I can't help but buy. Every. Single. Time.

I'm glad I can be a useful motivator.

Very useful. Extremely so.

I always feel inadequate, commenting on such brilliant writing but I figure that everyone enjoys receiving comments (unless they're crazy)...

I think I will love this more than Book 2, simply because the emotional stuff--when done right--can be so delicious.

Here, Cam and JD are just so...dammit you brought the good hurt. (Yes, I fail at leaving constructive commentary on interpersonal stuff. It's lovely and real and just abso-freaking-lutely perfect in the best way.)

Beyond that, a few geek outs.

Inanna descending into the underworld

I love it when stuff I've discussed in class pops up in fiction. It makes me squee just a bit.

Home is the sailor, home from the sea, and the hunter home from the hillThis? YES. It brings to mind all those other heroes in literature, movies, etc. that make their way home after their quest/ordeal/etc. is over. It's also so very poignant because all those other people have been broken, too. They've changed and they have to come back ( ... )

Thank you! I love the moment of the return-from-the-ordeal, because it's so fascinating to watch how people handle themselves after the Great Task. There'll be plenty of cleanup for poor JD to handle, and Cam's going to be right there the whole way saying "excuse me? you're going to talk to me about this now. now, I said." *g*

I was gonna say "oh goody, something to distract me before the job interview". Except I couldn't scroll to the post comment link without reading the story. So now I am distraction-free again. *pout* Was a lovely distraction while it lasted, though.

Wow. I wish I had more words and could accurately describe this, but I don't. Faith, love, trust, understanding and hope shine through this entire story and it's just beautiful.

Thank you! I really love the two of them together so much, and I was never expecting to. They're going to have a long road ahead of them, but hey, they'll get through it ...

*giggle* Time to curl up with a familiar universe is very important, yes. *nods firmly*

the noises I made when I saw this, I am not sure I can describe this to you ( ... )

Oh, thank you! I'm glad you liked it :)

Meanwhile, I have known some people (men and women both) who'll say things like that, yeah, and my thought about Cam is that he's been raised to be really in touch with his feelings; he's willing to admit to things out loud that most people would never dream of saying (which is part of what makes him and JD such a great match, because JD needs the example), while he's also tremendously protective of His People. And sometimes he needs to yell at JD a little, when JD's slipping back into old habits ...

A man would TOTALLY say that. The man I know in real life whose personality most resembles these two fictional men, would say that, has said nearly that to me, not as a man to a woman, but as a comrade, loyal and protective. Not gonna stand by while anybody hurts one of His People.

I love these guys, the way Syne writes them, because they do ring so true to life--and that little bit truer than life ever really is: the contrast and the saturation turned up, zoom on the details that real-life's lense pans past.

The handling of the psychology and the interpersonal relationships remains brillaint.

Mai comment, you can has it. kthxwow.

eee, thank you! I really did set out to write a story about interpersonal relationships and how to make them work when both parties are more than a little damaged, and it's awesome to know it works. :)
