*Throws rotten tomato* Too sad! Now you have to write a cheerful DN to make up for it. XD Just kidding. It was very touching.

(this is the way overdramatized scene of me reading this)(aka a mini soap opera-ish thing)

Music Nerd slowly scrolled down, reading the text avidly the way a scholar would. Her eyes went wide and she put a not-so-delicate, callused hand to her dry, cracked lips, stifling a gasp. She barely smothered a strangled, anguished cry. Her hand went limp, falling to her lap like the tears that fell with it and spotted her best jeans. Numair had always been one of her favorite characters, it was hard to see him die, even if it was only fiction. For a moment, all she could do was stare at the screen, but then she shook her head, it was just fiction. She hastily brushed a tear away, dismissing it as irrational, and pondered how she had let herself get so close to a non-exisistent character from one of her books.

omg! like my little scene? so dramatic!! i didn't actually do any of that. im not THAT close to the characters...

i love this. especially in the last line, when you referred back to the wolves. i think you have a very good grip on Daine's character.

WOW! I LOVED that last line! This was very good. I haven't read a lot of Tamora Pierce poems, so this was great!
