just caught up on 1-3 on the rec of darling savvyfan and I AM HOOKED. you've tapped into the intensity of this kind of encounter and really brought it to life. i don't know your guys, so getting to know them like this is always a treat - i love seeing them on the ice for the first time after having blanks like these filled in. ;D

i love how it feels like you're not neglecting any aspect of how something like this would come together - you're pairing the physical with the emotional, the light with the dark, the real with the fantasy, and it's all blending together really, really well. i'm excited to read more. thanks for sharing what you have already!
