Re: *sniffles*

You've made me cry with a sex scene *sniffles* That's never ever happened before.

I don't know that my fic has ever made anyone cry before, period, so it's a new thing for me.

The first one because it was like a punch in the stomach (not in a bad way).

That's one of my favorite bits. It just sort of...came to me, that of course Orlando would believe Elijah. Orlando knows that strange and miraculous things happen and he knows it from personal experience. (I think I can probably also credit some of that characterization of him to "I Shall Please the Lord in the Land of the Living" by [livejournal.com profile] mirabile_dictu, which was still lingering in my mind when I started writing this.)

And the second one made this... warm undefinable feeling bloom (ha! no pun intended though) inside my chest and that was when the crying intensified times ten and I had to take a break before continuing

Awww. Thank you. I had worried that it was too much sap, but it just felt right to me that Elijah should be aware of the increase in emotional connection with each succeeding encounter and that it was getting close to the breaking point for him.

This was one of the most beautiful stories I've ever read... *sniffles*

*hands you a tissue*

Thank you so much for saying so. I'm glad you enjoyed it, even if it did make you cry.
