I just thought I'd stumble over here and let you know just how fucking brilliant this was. Truly... I just love the emotion you inspired me to feel when reading this. It's the one thing that resounds above everything else I take from this. It's the one thing - aside from your wonderful writing - that brings me back to read and enjoy this awesome offering to the fic gods. You've totally outdone yourself, Mix. Brava.

all I want for Christmas is more stories like that.
That was really good. I can survive the sad as long as it ends happy.
