I was linked here by kitsune714 and I really really really (x a million) liked your story. The format, the repetition, the rhythm--it made each segment so poignant. After the first part of the story, I thought it ended and wanted to weep at the insanely good angst. But then, the second part was even better and made me want to cry as well. Thank you for posting it, because it was such a joy to read!
