omg PDFs I need to take care of that! Sorry, it would probably have happened this weekend except I didn't have a weekend because I spent Saturday on an anti-EDL march (fuck Nazis) and *utterly* destroyed my legs and then needed to sleep for eleven hours and basically do nothing at all on Sunday and I'm still feeling very delicate but *fuck* Nazis I regret nothing \o/
*cough* Anyway so YES as soon as I have a non-knackered moment, I really will put up a very grateful link to your hard work because honestly it's not something I'd have the wherewithal to ever put together on my own and I really do appreciate it, thank you =)
So the *actual fic*, yeah, it's - I wonder if this is where some of this came from, now you mention it; a member of my family is on antidepressants for some really serious depression, and while I am very very glad that they seem so much more content and they're still *with* me, they're also an utterly different person now, I don't see the person they were before in there at all, and it - I don't know. It's a very complicated thing to live with, and I know we don't get to whine about life being complicated, but it had never occurred to me before that writing the loss of someone who's still right there is really a very, *very* everyday thing. So I hope you and your grandad still get to share a lot of special stuff, honey, and the memories of all the other special stuff remain <3
(On you and your friend, post the Twin Peaks finale the only other person I know watching it and I communicated in monosyllables for about a day as we just tried to internally parse our own responses to something that cannot be responded to. I need to watch more stuff I get to flail to, dammit, I'm jealous ;) )
Thank you for reading (I feel like I need to send everyone a special thank you for reading a REALLY FUCKING RIDICULOUSLY LONG FIC I MEAN THIS IS JUST STUPID) honey, as always, and I'm really glad you're still enjoying the (REALLY STUPIDLY LONG) fic - thank you, very much =)
