- ARRR! As if you wanted feedback and I wasn't here! Just... as if!
Chapter 77... I cried. Really. My eyes got all shiny and the tears welled up all ready for me to give in a weep like a three year old... and then I did. That last portion especially, was just so poignant. It reminded me exactly of how you see it done onscreen, when the song's playing and it switches between the characters present and their memories of the past. Right now, the only film I can think which does that is 'Elizabethtown' (with Orlando Bloom and Kursten Dunst) - but, tbh, that's a really bad example. You know the sort of thing I mean. Well, it captured that exactly. It didn't matter that the memories were just dialogue, (and before you say anything, that's most definately not a bad thing. It would've spoiled it, if it had) I still felt, I dunno, like I knew anyway. I could imagine it perfectly. I know there hasn't always been a lot of love for Riley, but, actually, I think she's one of my favourites. Even though she's dead =S. I love the way her and Gee interact. I wanna be Riley. Although seeing as she dies in a kinda icky way, I'm sure I shouldn't, but I do anyway. =P. Then of course that memory of 'Nana' It just broke up all the little pieces of my heart that had already been broken by Gee and Riley. All the chapters of the story amaze me in heir own ways... but this one really hit the nail on the head. It's really special. I'm just so super-sorry, that I couldn't say this when you updated!
And then Chapter 78... FRAAAANKIIEEE! Gaaahhh! I've got that unsettling feeling in my stomach... When I really don't want him to be upset, but actually for story purposes, I wouldn't have to any other way. So, it's a good unsettling feeling =P. Gee and Mikey are awesome though. =]. I have a lotta love for Mikey, I think he's woefully under-estimated most of the time.
Thank you so much for writing this! I shall now give you the best indication I can of my love for you and the story:
I left my hot chocolate and Hobnobs to go cold to read it as soon as I realised there was new chapters. Now that's a big deal. There's not much I love more than dipping my Hobnobs into a mug of hot chocolate. It's my guilty pleasure is that. But now my hot chocolate has gone cold. =[.
But it's OK... 'cos your story was absolutely worth it! =].
