A thing that stands out greatly in your writing is that there is always a believable motivation for the actions of your characters. I think that is why so many people who read your work immediately grasp whatever ideas you are trying to put across. Even when the reader disagrees with a character's actions or opinions, the driving force behind it is always understandable.
That is a very sobering thing to read. Thank you so much for saying it. If there is one thing I find I have a problem with while reading and writing, it is that I see so many characters that do not make sense to me because their motivation does not make sense. It is something I agonize over. Thank you so very, very much for saying this about my writing.
That aside, I must thank you again because this is my baby. This started out as my very first H/D, and the first chapter, meant to be a one-shot, ballooned into this conclusive section. You have made me so happy, sweets. Your thoughts on Lucius, who I love to explore, and how you read the whole thing in one go... *is speechless* Thank you so much. I know this is the fiftieth time I've said it, but I mean it.
