No, really, it's 3:40 am but I have to stay awake a little longer to give you mad compliments on this fic. I saw it linked on tumblr and I usually have terrible, terrible luck with things that I find on tumblr, but holy crap, girl.
This just broke my heart and sewed it up again so, so many times as I was reading. I literally could not stop until I was done. And I seriously adore what you've done with such a sensitive topic... it's really easy to write adorable fluff and forget that we live in a homophobic world and a world where sex is awkward, yay!, and yeah, that's fun sometimes, but you chose to tackle something more tangible, and you did it wholeheartedly, and you did it fucking well. Gaahhahaha.
So yeah, it hurts to read, but it's a good hurt, you know? And it made the happy bits about a hundred times happier because I was sitting on the edge of my seat going "YEAHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHH!!!" every time something halfway pleasant happened. XD And rocking back and forth going "ohhhhh nooooooooooo nooooooooo" the rest of the time. :P Basically, you elicited some emotional reactions and NOT JUST BECAUSE IT'S 3 AM and you're awesome. Your writing is awesome. Your grasp of human emotion is awesome, your use of actual events is awesome, YOU'RE AWESOME. /fangirling
