I actually read this yesterday. I've been trying to think of a way to get across what I think but all I've come up with so far is.... WOW.
It's not exactly what I wanted to say so I'll try very hard to be eloquent, although it never seems to work for me. ;)
I really like the nitty gritty stuff. I always think its better to include it because real life is full of the stuff. I adore the fic itself, your style of writing has always captured my attention. I can only say that I loved this and its only made me appreciate the actual story more. The fic just seems to be the started point for this universe that you have created and made so believable. The tone of this was just so perfect, carried on from the work you have already done. The writing style just seemed so write, I didn't question it was. The only thought I had on it was 'Yes that's /exactly/ how Wally would write.'
The tale itself is so utterly heartbreaking. There are very few people who can go through so much and yet still mange to across so innocent at times. He makes me laugh, he makes me angry and God knows I've gone through boxes of tissues over this because its brought me to tears several times.
I realise that none of this probably made any sense. It's probably not a good idea to review anything after a few drinks but I felt I had to try and say something. Id only for my brain which has melted through the sheer appreciation it has for your work.
So goodnight and thank you for a truly incredible read. xXx
