Normally I am terrible at replying to comments quickly, because I like to do them all in a batch, but OH. MY. GOD. I've already just reblogged and gushed all over this on tumblr, but, oh my god, thank you so much! This is so beautiful, and the fact you not only picked up on one of my favourite secret pleasures (imagery and metaphors) and then made it into something this beautiful - I'm so delighted and elated and I have so many feelings right now.

I think one of the things I really enjoy about art, and one of the things I love to try and do in writing, is using touch and implication and juxtaposition to tell a story in and of itself without needing to say things explicitly; there are certain motifs I come back to again and again, eyes and hands and water especially (which you will notice in my STXI fic, too, as well as a lot of my original stuff.) I'm just really so happy you noticed it, and the art -
Thank you, so so much. I can't really express how delighted I am. You're amazing.
