This is amazing. I mean, *really* amazing. I feel a bit silly getting so gushy over this but you deserve it. I had given up hope of finding any halfway decent Michael/Harry fic and then I find this - which is much better than halfway decent. Much better than decent. It's wonderful. So insanely, beautifully hot.
The way you describe Michael is lovely, the imagery is so perfect and original and interesting. Every time I've thought about writing Harry/Michael it always seemed like it would be too difficult a task and here you've pulled it off in this effortless, brilliant way that seems to fit with the characters and I am in awe. I couldn't quote the bits I like because I'd be quoting it all and your economy of language means that every damn bit of it is essential in painting the picture of the scene as a whole.

I've never been able to take this pairing seriously, if only for the fact that, like everything else in Silent Hill, there's nothing healthy about it. But you know the fans -- who write it sweetly, romantically, fluffy, everything it couldn't be. Then there are the uncreative who take the route of non-con.
Then there's this; something I can read and be pleased that I've read it, because it's done in the way that I, too, can view it. Because there's a grasp on both characters. They're not just written as mannequins for the author to position and fill in boring, typical words of every fangirl's slash fic; they're written as the characters I know. Even from the lack of dialogue, I can take a lot from the prose, and that says plenty enough.
It was short, colorful, and creative; I'm certainly hoping I can poke around and see more of your stuff. :3
