Aaw. This is very sweet. Love the bit where he's convinced she's an angel.

Well. I wrote my previous review about how emotional your writing is... and then I read this chapter. Works cannot describe...I'm sobbing...poor Belle

I just want to say that I LOVE how you've crossed from Once to Stargate now to Middlesborough but it really breaks my heart and brings tears to my eyes to think of anyone (and especially if they were Belle) loving and losing so many people. I can't even think about it because its so heart-wrenching. Your stories are truly works of art, bringing real emotions with every sentence and every word.

Joseph is lucky it was Nick and not Rumple. He's probably drop. This was a creative and cool story.

The community is very understanding. Joseph's penenance man he really did need Belle.

I have to admit I was hoping the curse breaking would not be so simple and was also hoping Joseph would find out that she is beauty from Beauty and The Beast. His coming to terms with that and his faith would have been cool.

So beautiful utterly loved it!

Excellent story.

So much happiness. I wish I had these two as neighbors in real life!

Lovely chapter.

Loved it!

So many happy feels! So lovely, romantic, and sexy. I'm looking forward to the wedding! The image of Joseph and Belle's coats hanging together was such a wonderful little touch. Oh, and I love that the Spirit of Nick "persuaded" Rome to grant the dispensation. Ha! PS-I've been watching "The Sound of Music" tonight, and when I saw that you updated, I was at the part where Maria returns from the abbey to confess her love to the Captain, which I thought was kind of fitting. Heh.

Awwww...the Macelle family is reunited! Like Belle, I am so happy to see Joseph's confidence in himself. I loved when he said that he left the priesthood in order to be true to himself. And FINALLY, "I love you"s from Belle and happy, uncursed Belle! So perfect how "True Love's Kiss will break any curse" came into play. I hope we get to see more of Joseph and Belle's happy ending (wedding and the baby's birth), because I want to keep on reading this amazing story.

Thank goodness THAT'S finally cleared up! Joseph talking to the baby is adorable. I can't wait to see them get married and the baby being born and them being a happy family. (You ARE going to write all that, right? Cos it does sort of feel like it's wrapping up. Maybe a bunch of occasional follow-up ficlets if so? You could call them "Now and Forever".)

I am curious on Joseph's reaction to Belle being Beauty and his reaction to Belle's true love Rumpelstiltskin.
