Sorry for taking so long with these. I've really appreciated hearing all your feedback, as always! This was just a super busy week for me. So let’s get to it:

Checking Feb 19 on my calendar. Chapter 11 may do me in.
It’s a week from Monday. Not too long a wait — just a little longer than normal. Hopefully you won’t be too done in by it, or if you are... hopefully you’re done in in only the best way?

JFC CHEL you raised your word count almost by 10k lol
I KNOW. I know. Don’t look at me. It just keeps happening. Chapter 7 was almost 10k too. Apparently once I start I cannot stop myself!
More spoilery comments for the chapter under the cut:

Ok, this chapter is officially a cause of my death... How on earth is your writing so beautiful that it literally takes my breath away.... I mean, this is probably the most heartwarming and at the time heartbreaking thing I've ever read. Thank you so freaking much.

Welp, I still haven't fully recovered...
Thank you so much, as always, for your beautiful compliments, and fear not, because the next chapters should be less torturous, one way or another. ♥

Omg. How the hell am I supposed to function normally now, after reading that?!
Don't think about it! Don't think about Kylo pleading with Rey as she succumbs to poison in his arms. Should... should be easy, right? ... Oh god.

I'm the one (or one of the ones?) who keyboard smashed in the comments on AO3. Just want to reiterate that Chapter 10 was AMAZEBALLS. Like, I had a bit of a tension headache at trying not to cry when Proposal Part 2 went down, and when Rey is thinking about what Kylo actually feels for her at the end I was fighting not to cry at work. So uh... Here's my actual thoughtful comment instead of the wharglbarghl I did the first go round.
Keysmashes are perfectly legit and very very welcome comments, but I appreciate you taking time to write down more of your thoughts too. Thank you! ♥
Oh idk it seemed normal to me. But what a beautiful man. I want to see him play more good characters. Westworld made me sad and knowing he’s a bad guy in this disappoints me too. We need him in a rom com haha
lol, I felt like every time he opened his mouth it was a low, husky tone and, yeah, it made me sad that I’d figured out, pretty much as soon as he was introduced and Frank labeled him as best friend, that he was going to be horrible.
He should do a rom-com. But he’s also VERY good at doing this kind of character and he, for some reason, reminded me of early Brian Kinney on QAF (not sure if you’ve ever seen?) but you know... an evil asshole as opposed to... an asshole with a heart.
He seems tragically (and I mean in terms of the amount of time I will now have to devote to this) adorable in interviews and such.
