I haven't resd fic in ages so this was a lovely opportunity to read some. Also it's short enough to not make me feel super guilty for reading stuff when I should be programming ;)
Anyway this is a lovely story. Few words but lots of content. I just love the way you play with words but in a completely non-pretentious way. My favorite is this sentence: Strength when she looked in the mirror and her mother looked back, restraint when she would have given anything for a little pill, a little blood, to signal the end of this intolerable limbo.
Just lovely!
Good god it's been so long that I don't even seem to know how to comment on fics anymore o_O so sorry if this is a bit vague. It's an impressive short story anyway and makes me wish I could still write!
(Also omg, I find it oddly eerie yet really flattering that you guys are both using that same Aeryn icon by me :P I'll just join the b&w fest, but with another icon!)
