GAAAAAH! OMG! You have literally taken my breath away. I am sitting here gasping with my hand to my heart and my face is all warm and smiley. OMG! Seriously, this was brilliant. I was pulled in right away, the mood was so perfectly dreary, the narrative was so Dani, and I could feel her emptiness and the way she had just detached herself from everything, AND THEN I GOT TO THE PART WITH CHARLIE, OH MY GOD!!!! Well, first I giggled at Dani punching out her previous partner, and then I got all excited because I knew Charlie was next, and then... OH MY GOD!!!! Oh, my stomach got all warm and squishy and I love how you capture them SO DAMN PERFECTLY! OMG! The part in the car, where he's just asking, just wanting to satisfy his curiosity and asking her what she needed to be asked, and her having so much trouble answering because she had debated with herself so many times over the whole thing, and then HE TOUCHED HER LIP! OMG! I love how she jumps away and Charlie is perfectly understanding and then he says what he says, and she says what she says, and really it's all the things that they don't say but what they understand that makes them so beautiful, and OMG I LOVE YOU SO MUCH!!!!!!! You capture all that I love about this show and these characters. And you made me squee with the multiple lip touchings and you described the way that Charlie was looking at her so perfectly that I actually swooned at the Damian that I saw in my head. OMG, I LOVE YOU! Just... gah, this was brilliant. My stomach is still flipping from all the wonderful.
