Even though I'm still a bit iffy when it comes to imagining any SH guys screwing around (all the pairings just look weird in my head. xD;; ), I found this fic extremely enjoyable and especially well done. :3

All i have to say is that this was a beautiful job. Poetic, and actually attempts to explain part of the psychological reasons for the characters to behave this way (which so many fics don't do--and don't any of you give me the "it's just fanfic so we can do what we want" cop-out, either; bad writing is bad writing and good writing is good writing, PERIOD). I particularly liked how the characters constantly walked that fine line between sadism and masochism, between hate/anger/fear and something very close to attachment. Hot as hell, well written, and makes a pairing i would have thought would lead to bad writing into a good pairing.

Hey there, glad you decided to post on AFF! I see already a few have left a welcome to you, and I hope that will encourage the next chapter of this story. As I said before, your style is unique and very flow-like...almost dreamy in a sense. You also made Henry a little aggressive, which is a change from the usual submissive quality authors focus on. Your Walter is more human than most (certainly more human than mine...LOL) and that makes you symphathize with him a little more. I just wonder though, what will happen once that time comes for Henry's sacrifice. The sensual part were well done, steamy without being vulgar, and the "psychic" orgasm was very interesting. It seems Walter's infulence extends well beyond Ms. Galvin. In closing, good job and well written--however, there are a few parts that corrections are still present (when I beta'd) but I'll email those to you privately.

Update soon, Carrie
