Aww, lovely! The second part of the story is so delightful. And Pth'thya-l'yi would probably best know how to deal with difficult mortals and the passions they provoke, with all Her strength and cleverness. I can hardly wait to see what awaits Gustaf now! Thank you so much for such a lovely story! <3

Thank you, I'm happy you are enjoying the story! Pth'thya-l'yi was soooo much fun to write, and I think I've got a bit of a fiction crush on her even though she barely gets a mention in Lovecraft's writing. XDDD Maybe I'll write something more with her, but first I'll finish this fic. Gustaf will indeed have an interesting time next chapter!

[sweetcarolanne]

Ooh, I'd love to read anything more you write of her, or of Cthulhu! :)

Well, the plotbunnies are clamoring so there may yet be some Pth'thya-l'yi/Obed's human wife. XD

Also, have a random snippet of poetry that just seems rather appropriate to this lot:
"You smell of distance.
Battered masts and sails,
exhausted from their struggle with the deep,
crowd in the harbor as I drop asleep,
feeling your breathing
while my soul is winging
its way above strange shores
and distant hills.
Listen.
Far off.
Hark to the sailors singing."
~Baudelaire

Also also, part 3 of "What Dreams May Come" is posted! :D My keyboard was reluctant to write smut, but I hope you like the conclusion nonetheless, lol.
