Re: Pause (Mick, PG)
Gah! This was gorgeous. As a sucker for any MickBeth fic, this ranks right up there among stories/drabbles that just describe their relationship down to the bare bones of it.
Ri -- your comment was as evocative as the drabble itself.rijane wrote:I love the metaphor here - the idea that Mick has been holding his breath for 20 years resonates with me - everything about that metaphor works - the pressure, the relief, the release. I love that hard.
Another of my favourites is the "strange landscape of my past" line, that paints such a perfect picture of Mick that was before - I see him standing stark against a twisted background and moving toward Beth and her coming to meet him there (I see the hope as her light on the darkened plains).
You're so right -- it's a quick squeeze to my heart. Well said and I second the compliment to Red!rijane wrote:A very great work here in such a small space.
Brava!
