Just a lush and gorgeous study in what someone just might go through mentally after the experiences of AWE -- so much so soon... you illuminate beautifully the furious barrage of emotions that Elizabeth might have had, coping with incredible loss and summoning all her vestiges of strength.

I hope you have more on the way -- because this was just incredible, and your work has been missed!

Thanks so much, love! It feels really good to be back in the saddle, and I'm hoping to put C.3 out this weekend. *crosses fingers*

I'm glad the quicksilver mood swings and general chaos that is Lizzie's mind at this point works for you. After seeing the film, I was totally thinking that she must be absolutely devastated in so many ways.

Thanks for reading and commenting, love! *hugs*

Well I finally made time to sit down and read this first chapter and how happy I am that I did. A beautiful opening with such wonderful imagery. Powerful but subtle.

The poignancy and heartbreak of her seeing her father again in her dream was so bitter sweet and Dream!Jack in Elizabeth's bedroom had me gasping for breath.

The beginnings for yet another gorgeous fic from you and I can't wait to read more. *goes to read chapter two*

Thank you so much for stopping by to read! I really appreciate the support, and I'm thrilled to know that you were moved by the story.

*hugs and squishes*

Thanks again! *g*
