 Ducky'sgirl4ever 2008-10-20 . chapter 1A great story. Very good. |
 hjea 2004-01-25 . chapter 1Wonderful.
Beautifully written, loved the way you used 'Lilah' in the prophecy. Poor Wes, this story brings me right back to the sorry state he was in last year.
Again, wonderful job. |
 Freakazoid 2004-01-21 . chapter 1 This is beautiful. I sense his guilt, fear and sorrow and your descriptions are beautiful. I like the way you weave Lilah's name into the prophecy. Truly a tale of their love. The final part broke my heart. Perfect Wes voice. Lovely piece of fiction. |
 Grav 2004-01-20 . chapter 1As with most of your stories, I am left with my head spinning. I think it's the style, all those "yous". It's uncommom, kind of jarring, and very effective. I liked it. |
 Eloise 2004-01-20 . chapter 1Stunning!
Another beautifully written Wes/Lilah fic, capturing the very essence of the characters. I just adored the whole alternative translations scenario - the action of the heart indeed! I stand in awe at yout linguistic inventiveness. My Latin is a bit rusty, and my Hebrew is non - existent, but reading this fic reminded me of my happy days at university, studying linguistics. The prophecy was so delightfully ambiguous, and you portrayed Wes perfectly in research mode.
And, then to lose Lilah, and to blame himself for her death - beautiful angst. As usual, lovely use of language - I especially liked:
'All around you it is eternal lilah; there is no sun,'
Gorgeous! More Wes/Lilah, please. I seem to remember you promising a longer story... |
 Imzadi 2004-01-20 . chapter 1Poor Lilah. She made some bad choices, and there were times she was actually evil, but she was human and had emotions, too. If only she & Wes had met a long time ago--before Wolfram & Hart. This is a very good, very sad story. |
 Tariq 2004-01-20 . chapter 1 Hi. GREAT STORY! |
 xanya-forever 2004-01-19 . chapter 1It's been a while since you wrote a fic, but it was well worth the wait! This was so layered and clever. Don't you just love Latin? Hm, that could just be me... The really clever bit was the Hebrew ties with Lilah's name. Etymology works in wonderful ways, hey? It just made so much sense in this fic! Speaking of sense, I'm sorry if I'm not making much... but this just had so much depth, both in research-y type ways in emotion, that I don't know what to say that will convey what I mean. Hmm, once again without the sense. Anyway, I really, really loved it and I think everything you wrote about Wes was extremely accurate and also quite painful. But then again, it would be accurate if it weren't painful. I'm sorry for this confusing review... please write more! |
