 HeeroYuy84 2004-03-28 . chapter 1Wow...don't visit FF.net for a week and a fic like this turns up...I'm tempted to see what will happen if I skip out for a month...
Joking aside though...wow, this is...dammit...can't think of just one word to sum it up...
Suffice to say, depressing is definitely up there. Up until this point, I'd always seen Eschonbach as being pretty uncaring. This perspective definitely fits the man however, on one hand, you see the same man who slapped his own daughter for trying to go after a man he viewed as being one of the worst people out there, but on the other, there's still love for her even after she's gone.
More to the point, looked at this way, he doesn't seem entirely unreasonable. Granted his methods weren't exactly acceptable, but he did appear to mean well.
Overall...two thoughts:
1. Excellent job
2. ...*goes to dig up some happy music to snap out of this* |
