Man, you keep writing these heart-clenches are we're going to have some problems! Nah, seriously, great. Absolutely great. Love just about anything you've written between them so far, though I do find myself aching for the dark/smutty and/or light/humor I became so fond of. But, hey, either way it goes I enjoy your work so I have nothing else to say. So sad that both Cassandra and Raphael are too stubborn to accept their love. I could never see it working out, not without either of them becoming seriously hurt somewhere down the line. Ah... *sniffs*

AND... congratulations on your engagement! May your wedding days be happy and frying-pan-up-side-the-head free!

See ya at the next fic!

oh god!Why do they always have such sad endings?I mean it is how things should have been if tehy really were a pairing but i jsut get so amazed and upset atthe same time when i read your stories.The language an dthe feelings are so there and it sadden me so much.Nice job!

Dammit! We seem to have like minds when it comes to playlists. This song has been a writing staple for me when I write the sad moments in stories and its towards the top of my Raph/Cass playlist. Okay now for the review.

Its nice to see a new story from you, you have NO idea how much I needed some awesome new fanfics to read. You haven't lost the skill. This was just such a sad and beautiful read. I loved the language of the story. Just amazing. And I was listening to Farewell as I read and the music matched in all the right places.

Amazing piece. :D

Where have you been woman!? -straps self in to feel the cheese-

'She’s radiant where he burns, golden and alive.' - ...:3

The end... my God, that was heartwrenching. The constant waiting and then that very, very last line was a true strike of brilliance and the piece itself maintained the awesomeness that you are known for.

Great job.

Wow, this is different from some of the stories I read from you. This was, how do I say it? Hmm, maybe beautiful or wonderful or heartbreaking?

This might have been better if you wrote like a multi-chaptered story so I can have a good feel between the forbidden love between Raphael and Cassandra.

Your gorgeous writing never ceases to amaze me. It was short, but the execution could not have been any more perfect. I love how Cassandra here is strong and that she is fighting against that irresistible darkness and how Raphael is clearly hurt, despite him projecting this image of being unaffected. Lovely work.

And yes, congratulations on... you know. :)

This fanfic is beautiful! I love how you described the two and potray them too.
