Poor Buri and Thayet. I never heard of a femmeslash between them...interesting. I liked this.

Very nicely done! I like how you portrayed Thayet's delimma and how she didn't say she is in love with Jon--how can she be after having known him so briefly? This is kind of bittersweet.

Who is this person who keeps cowardly reviewing and hating all over stories he/she obviously dislikes and yet continues to read? This is befuddling to me.

Anyway, good job on the story: it's quite good.

Fixèd the result of FF.N's buggy file export feature -- struggling with said feature for a good while in the process -- and much thanks to Eymber for reporting this tragic error.

I loved this, and it almost made me cry. Perhaps it hit a little too close to home. :P

Only a slight thing -

"“I was afraid you might say that,”King is barely known to us. We’vhat did not seem to align with her bodyguard’s severe expression"

There's a couple of typos in it - it looks like a line was perhaps deleted.

See, this is what I don't understand. I hoped you would have understood me last time I reviewed your stupid stories. You must be thicker that I thought though. Slash is wrong - stop it.

poor buri. good fic though.

It was beautiful and sad and well-written, all at once. And that's something very very rare.
I feel all teary eyed now. This is great, Lea.

Lea, that was wonderful. That last line was so fantastic - well, actually, the whole last paragaph was so beautifully final.

Gah. That was just so perfect and so... Thayet. Squeed over the mild Thayet/Alanna implication. I adored that she didn't love him then. Apart from the fact that I hate the word 'hazarded', all of this was simply beautiful.

Intensely written. I love the fierce internal struggles you've brought out of both characters, especially the thin veil of superiority that is visible beneath Thayet's words, despite her friendship with Buri. You mix duty with personal desires well, making the story meaningful to read.
Well done.

*sniffle*

Wow. That's all I can say. Wow. That was amazing.

Is it bad that I though about Doctor Strangelove when Thayet said "...do not presume to grieve my mother more than I do.”? Or we can pretend it didn't happen.

Ah, so sad. So excellent, though.

Wow. VERY well written. I really disliked Thayet in this story. But good job.
