Most overdue comment in the world - I listened to sophinisba's reading of this months ago while travelling and was just. Kind of weak with how much I loved it. I've reread it since then and linked a couple of non-fandom friends to it, and they loved it, too. We chatted about it and I was like, shit, I need to stop trying to think of something coherent to say and just go tell new_kate how fucking beautiful this fic is. Your name in my inbox this morning reminded me that I'm a big jerk who still hadn't. I still have nothing coherent to say, but dude. THIS FIC IS REALLY FUCKING BEAUTIFUL. It seriously haunts me a little. ♥♥♥
