Tom and Abigail Hiddleston, flows off the tongue and leaves you warm inside. As I was reading the End 2, I was directing it as though it was a movie, is that weird? Whether it is or not, it was great fun and I felt waves of emotion with every paragraph because on one hand ‘about time’ and on the other i felt ‘wow this is actually happening.’ I see myself in Abby more than in any other character I have come across so I want to thank you for her. Those vows were breathtaking, I really held my breath until I started a new paragraph. I loved reliving the evolution of their relationship, and wow are they perfect for each other. The wedding was perfect. I couldn’t help but feel a weight off of my shoulders when Tom and Abby kissed, after being apart for so long before the wedding, and I didn’t expect to feel that as it wasn’t a conscious thought of mine. What a journey, I can’t wait for more! I applaud you Kris! Thank you!
Eeekkks!!! Tom and Abigail Hiddleston. You know? When I sat down to write a one shot a little over a year ago, I never thought about it. I never considered that Tom and Abby would grow so far. But the names really do fit together. (I'm not sure how I feel about Abby's initials being AGH, I much prefer AH!)
I'm so happy that you felt all that. I'm humbled that I made you feel anything at all. There simply aren't words to describe how that makes me feel... what you feel I've accomplished.
I really wanted to create a well-balanced relationship, with two characters that aren't perfect, but perfect for each other. That's exactly the dynamic I wanted. I love that you felt the relief of anticipation, because that's why I used Emma in the way I did. Not only to create that tension in Abby with her impatience, but also to make the kiss magical. They needed that spark and excitement, and I wanted them to have it.
It will certainly help with the next part of their story, when Abby goes off on tour with Ben.
Thank you for reading along! I really can't thank you enough!
