abuseThis was a beautiful, poetic way to complete (continue?) their story.

Unfortunately, I didn't recognize any of the songs, so now I've got some research to do...

abuseYay! I love that we get to see their ending. It is so wonderful, this awkward, painful, lovely moment!
I loved Fatima reading the tea leaves, like she did in JE. It bought the whole thing together.

My only problem was that I didn't recognize most of the songs so I didn't really get an impact on how the songs related to the aspects of the story. Except for Missy Higgins! Warm Whispers is one of those songs that just hits me every time I hear it.

abuseOnly yesterday did I start rereading the 'Messed'series (so I am an addict, is there a better addiction?) because I was so desperate for your writing, thinking that it's the highest time you posted ANYTHING and I open my inbox today and no mere 'There it is!'! The wonderful 'There THEY are!'! Two stories from you, two! And how did you know the Sheldon and Nasreem situation was the one I most wanted to see resolved, but did not dare hope? Thank you so much! On to read the second story!

abuseGreat songs, again! I love the closure, how it so closely resembles how they first really got to know one another in the coffee shop back in "Journey's End". Awesome fic!

abuseI'm so excited you decided to do this and give Sheldon and Nasreen some closure. This is great! Enough to give closure, but still open enough for everyone to fill in the blanks as they see fit.

abuseExcellent! If you ever wanted to take these characters out to play again I'd be thrilled. :-)

abuseSIGH! I'm so happy to see a happy resolution to the parting of Nasreen and Hawkes. I just knew she didn't have it in her to push him away forever and he certainly didn't have it in him to ignore her... yes! lots of boys!!

abuseYay! I wondered if you'd ever give us more of their story, and I am so excited that you did. I'm glad that they were honest with each other, and that now I can imagine a truly happy ending for them. Thanks!

abuseThis was so NOT what I had in mind when I signed the "Bring Back Nasreen" petition... but I love it!

I'm awed that you managed to make the songs fit one after the other in order to tell a complete story... I could barely manage little snippets here and there!

Awesome, awesome, awesome!

(And for the record, I didn't challenge you, I merely... ah... "tempted" you into doing it. Not that I regret it, nossir!

abuseThank you so much for this - it was heartbreakingly beautiful and deeply satisfying. I loved every word.

abuseWell... a kinda sorta closure, anyway. I like that she doesn't feel the need to wear her hijab, and that it doesn't make her less religous not to wear it, just that she no longer needs it to feel like a woman.
