Thanks so much for reading again, Jenna! And you've described so well the essence of what was going on in Moonlight at this time. I think the double pull on Mick was really the hardest at just this time, when he was so sure that he shouldn't be getting involved with Beth -- yet was at the same time so powerfully drawn to her. Later on he still had second thoughts, but he would never again think of trying to break off contact with her. Some connections are just too strong ...jen wrote:
This popped back up on Active Topics and I read it again.
Splendid is a good word for it! 'Lovely' works, too.
I adore the ambiance of this piece. Mick is pulled in two directions, as he often is--powerfully drawn to Beth because of the enormity of the change that took place in his life as a result of rescuing her as a child; and also as a beautiful woman who is clearly drawn to him. Against this powerful attraction are all the reasons that warn him that it won't work. He shouldn't even try. And Beth is in a relationship with a great guy, she shouldn't be attracted to this enigmatic stranger...
This reminds me why I miss Moonlight and Mick so much.
Wonderful, wonderful job!
Thank you!
Jenna
