My HEART!

This was a heart-wrenching story! I can imagine Cain's pain when thinking about HIS Princess falling in love with someone else, and marrying him. Glad she showed maturity and bravery beyond her years.
Thanx for sharing!

Reread this. The imagery and emotions are still amazing. Thank you.

Okay I know its been a long time since this was posted, but honestly, this is one of the best things I have read in a long while. The ache in my heart from this piece is just so beautiful. This is a fantastic one-shot, and one I know I will reread many times over. It is exactly the kind of way Cain would react to such a situation. The characterization in this is just amazing. Kudos on a fantastic piece.

This is an absolutely amazing story. I read lots of fanfiction across many fandoms and I have never come across a story that affected me like this. It is breathtakingly painful and wonderful. I love it and want to read it again and again until I have it memorized.

Damn. That gave me chills

This is a beautiful, beautiful piece.

Christ, and I thought I knew pining!fic. THIS is the Cain pining fic to end all pining fics. I haven't come back to this fandom in years, but wow. I was an idiot to miss this one.

Achingly beautiful.

*wipes away tears* ... beautiful fic... and that last line. oh my.

I read this a long time ago, and somehow failed to add it to my favorites. I am so delighted to have found it again (through your OUAT story).

You really do have a great flare for writing this kind of story.

Cheers,

Oh, so great! Freaking awesome! There were times when I couldn't breath and my own inner dialog was yelling, then rejoicing. Bravo!

WHAT! I didn't review this story! I totally remember reading it before and being blown away by it then...Regardless: I just re-read this because I remember it being THAT GOOD and now I'm even more blown away!

This is such a heart-in-throat story and you make me want to cry but in a good way because of it. I think...yep, there's a tear or two. This was so beautifully written and unique. I wish there were more fics like this out there. Thank you so much for contributing to the world, it made my day. You rock!

I really loved what you did with the 'tin man' imagery and what you did in the story and with Cain's POV was very interesting.

! I am in awe! complete shock at the amount of love and tenderness that story has caused. I thought your descriptions were beautiful, the internal thoughts of Cain were just like him, DG's reaction to finding herself out of her depth and... everything!

All I can say is thank you from the bottom of this tired, stressed out heart of mine, thank you!

This? This is absolutely beautiful. Seriously, words can hardly describe just how wonderfully written this story is. Captivating, heartwrenching and seriously one of the best stories on this site.
