Reccing for newbies

[samsom]

hannasus commented to me recently and that made me go back and read one of her fanfics, of the best pieces of fanfic I've ever encountered. It just happens to be a C/A fic, post You're Welcome. I'm reccing it again in case the newbies to the C/A ship haven't run across it yet.

Undrowning.

It's beautiful and spare and....if anyone's ever lost anyone beloved to them....it rings with truth and grief. hannasus did good when she wrote this and she deserved every bit of feedback she got - and still gets, nearly five years after writing it.

I cried at the last two paragraphs. Bet you will too.

And it's all true too!

Hand to God, Undrowning and the poem you used in it was the truest representation of grief I've ever encountered - my mom died when I was 19 and everything you wrote Angel feeling was what I went through. Even Lorne with his useless eulugy summed up the sheer inadequency of trying for beauty and/or comfort through pretty that meant nothing. When my dad died last year, I used the poem in his funeral.

So yeah, fuck yeah, I love this fic for a multitude of reasons.
