Wha-
Only thirty?
When my mother was forty, she looked like a twenty year old.
It was really quite scandalous.
Only THIRTY?

Really not sure what was going on here.

Your head space has got to be a fascinating place, I'd assume, from your writing. This was great.

...I'm so confused. This is super poetic and well written and all, but I have to admit, I have absolutely no idea what just happened.

What the fuck did I just read.

I was not expecting that ending! That is not to say, however, that I did not enjoy the story. It was lovely, as always.

"This is the end; the end of evanescence, the beginning of limbo. I killed the end. I killed mercy."

Absolutely beautiful. I came back to read this again, just thought I'd put another comment here.

"My partner in the Limbo dance," he said absently, picturing himself in a tuxedo and Harry in a frock, ballroom dancing across an endless grey plain. Or perhaps it would be him in the frock.

"Life," he said to himself. "Call this a life?" But there was no death.

He had been a minute, impossibly bright ball of twisted, tortured hate. [Especially love this one!]

This is perfect.
I quite liked a lot of Voldemort's mindless thinking under the sea; I can't help but find amusement in a lot of them, though it seemed a bit unfair because Voldie's sentence was quite the torture.

I like the ending as well, but am a bit confused as to what happened, really.
My personal understanding is that while Voldie was under the water, Harry was also in coma. And after Harry'd woken up, he got Voldie out. But why does Harry look like that? The description doesn't fit a thirty-something man at all, imo.
...Or maybe Tom was never really under the sea, just constantly hullucinating and had been silent for the past decade? Was Harry lying when he said he was thirty one?
Anyway, I'll just go with my initial understanding after finishing the story, can't think more or my head would explode. Still, at least ten quotes or so could be taken out of this story. This is quite brilliant.

You have a certain and twisted way of writing that just makes me stare at the screen after finishing it. I like it!

UH I confess to being completly lost. I'm not entirly sure what was happening where is this all in his head or is it acutally happening...
It kinda reminded me of sucker punch in that one is never quite sure if things were for real or in her head.

Gina

I didn't really get this one :(

What just happened.
I cried.

No really, by the end I cried. (Holy shit, I'm claustrophobic, why did I read this?) I do feel sorry for him. (Uh, Harry, or Voldie? I'm not certain.)

Well written, Cheryl.

that was odd

really odd

I feel like I just read the twisted HP/LV version of Inception. I'm stuck wondering how muh of it was real, if Potter died young or not, whether Voldemort -was- actually haunted, whether it was only 20 years that passed, or infinitely more, if the ending was for real, a dream, a hallucination, or perhaps a vision of the limbo between life and death.

Magnificent piece!

Absolute perfection.
