I AM STOPPING READING RIGHT NOW BECAUSE OF THAT LINE.

DUDE, FO SRS, I WAS USING DISMANTLE/REPAIR BY ANBERLIN AS INSPIRATION FOR MY ANGST FIC AND I AM FREAKING OUT, EVEN THOUGH I SHOULDN'T B CUZ ITS AN INSPIRING SONG AND OF COURSE OTHER WRITERS CAN USE IT BUT OMG IF YOU ARE THE SHEEP LADY I THINK WE HAVE THE START OF A BEAUTIFUL FRIENDSHIP HERE. ZOMG

OK, NOW THAT THATS TAKEN CARE OF, I WILL CONTINUE TO READ.

LMFAO. OMG IF YOU ARE THE SHEEP LADY HOLY JESUS, THAT WAS HILARIOUS. YOU DOUBTED MY SHEEP POTENTIAL? I'M SURPRISED AT YOU!

I HAD ANOTHER LINE THERE, BUT THEN I WAS LISTENING TO THE SONG, AND I COULDN'T HELP BUT CHANGE IT. IT JUST POPPED IN. I THINK WE CHOOSE IT BECAUSE IT HAS THE POTENTIAL TO BE FAIRLY ANGSTY, ESPECIALLY IN THE VERSES, BUT THEN IT HAS A BRIGHTER OVERTONE THAT PROMISES RESOLUTION.

(AND IT'S FATE. YOU CAN'T DENY FATE.)

Selena remembered how the fervor of their newly deepened relationship went directly into a series of songs, the pure melted down emotion like gold prepped for casting, morphing and cooling until it settled in the shape of a ring--a never-ending circle standing for infinity in this sick world without absolutes.
WHY ARE YOU SO AMAZING? YOUR METAPHORS KICK ME IN THE HEAD AND LEAVE ME BEGGING FOR MORE PUNISHMENT.

there was almost a physical hook sticking out of each of their backs, tugging gently, whenever the other was away.
WHAT? WHAAAAT??? THAT IS SO AMAZING, A PERFECT DESCRIPTION, GOOD LORD I AM I AWE.

Selena, the sun that was once the center of Demi's gravitational pull could only wait until Demi orbited back into her system.
*IS CRYING FROM THE BEAUTY*

I NOW PROCLAIM US SOULMATES. MY WIFE WILL KILL ME WHEN SHE DISCOVERS THIS, BUT ITS ALL RIGHT. WE DIVORCE LIKE, EVERY OTHER WEEKEND. S'COOL.

GOD, YOU! I JUST - GAH, I CANT EVEN!- !!!!- *DIES*

OMG. That was one of the most beautifully depressing things I've ever read.

The last couple lines really cut to the quick, and really make you feel for Selena. ('cause, you know, the ENTIRE FIC doesn't have that same effect or anything ;)

Awesome job (UNDERSTATEMENT)

Gah. I feel like any comment I leave is horribly insufficient. :)

How did I miss commenting on this before?!?! Just reread it again (for like, the third time) and once again I'm blown away by the emotion and intensity and just...I don't even have words.

When it was serious, it was almost always Selena's fault. And she knew. She knew all too well that every jagged line that danced across Demi's wrists, every broken guitar string, and every miscalculated relationship was in some way, her fault. If she just could have broken through to her sooner, if she just could have saved her, if she just could have confessed the feelings that tore her own soul to shreds. I feel like that captures so well the essence of Selena: she puts Demi back together time and again but blames herself for being unable to keep Demi from falling apart to begin with. Poor child.

In the back of her mind, in that dark, secret place where she let her own insecurities roam unseen and unchecked, Selena knew that Demi would eventually move on without her. This snapped my heart in half, because that's what seemed to be happening over ( ... )

This was amazingly poetic and beautiful. The way you string your words together to make this amazing art is perfect. It's utterly heartbreaking to see the truth behind what you wrote, that Selena essentially is letting Demi go for, what she thinks, is her own good and that she gave her the strength to survive without her. The last small paragraph is so beautiful and depressing. The entire story was amazing. I'm excited to see more from you in the future. :]
