you are breaking my heart into a million billion pieces

just because they had to doesn't mean it's not still going to make me cry ohgod

[wizzard890]

I AGREE. I may or may not have teared up while we were working on this.

Oh my god. He actually spoke the words....This was just so fucking beautiful. I love how America calls him beautiful. It's perfect. It's now one of my little headcannons; along with so many others you presented me. XD

This chapter was so sweet, yet very sad. And that small moment of America breaking down his resolve? Oh my god....that was almost heartbreaking.

Lovely work as always you two! <3

That part killed me too. I mean, he knows what's right, but now that he has Russia in his arms...how can he possibly let him go again?

[anasyrma]

Totally unrelated, but I was all teary eyed at this fic, scrolled up, saw your icon, and laughed for a good minute.

Thanks for that!

Hear that sound? That's my heart shattering into a million pieces.

Fuck the Cold War man.

[wizzard890]

Quick, gather them all up! You're going to need them later! D=

[pyrrhiccomedy]

Fuck the Cold War man.

I know, right? I call mutually assured bullshit on this whole geopolitical era. ._.

I was interested to see the mixed reactions you got to the last chapter, but I really think this was the right decision for them. But wow is it painful to read. It's a little difficult to imagine what they must be facing - I mean, we all know that things eventually got better, but at the time this must have looked like it would last forever...

The Zippo reappears! I feel almost like it's become a little reminder of America for Russia, just one of those sentimental little things you hold on to.

And o-oh, the disparity between what they were saying and doing just... Ah, TCE continues to tear heart into little pieces. Excuse me while I find my tissues...

Well, none of us want to see them break up, of course, but you're right, this is something that needs to happen. They're going to kill one another. It's not a possibility anymore, it's a certainty. The two of them have to take the initiative to keep that from happening.

Oh, absolutely. Even during the long stretches of time when he's not using it, it still sits in a drawer, or in the pocket of a winter coat, or in the glove box of his car. He's too angry to use it, sure, but...never angry enough to throw it away.

[satancat]

Wow, owwwwww. Oh dear my heart aches for these two.
The bit where America is trying to go back on his word and Russia freaks and says "No, America, stop, stop, you have to stop...Y-You can't--Don't go back on this, ptenchik, you promised me--" AUGH that just poured more exquisite pain into my already shattered heart.

This was soooo soo good. I hope we see some sort of nice resolution! (alright, so current relations with Russia still aren't too great right now, but........I TRUST THE POWER OF LOVE TO MAKE IT BETTER!!...That, paired with your phenomenal writing, should be able to bring joy back into this depressing story)

Lovely, just lovely &hearts

[wizzard890]

It has always been our hope that we can give the boys the happy ending they deserve! =D

Hey, the fic is still ongoing, so who knows? Things might have improved between the nations by the time we finish!

Think of it this way. This is a love story! A love story is a machine for keeping two people apart until the last possible minute. XD

lool thanks for the reminder XDDD I'll keep that in mind the next time my tears threaten to spill over XDDDD
