At first I was like, what? Then, what the actual fuck? What? What is happening? Okay, this is the weirdest thing ever, I don't get a thing, oooohkaaaay. At some point I actually wanted to stop because it seemed too weird to me-- and then I read further, and kind of really loved it and suddenly understood it and I cried hard.
Yeah, so that's basically what happened when I read this fic. Unnecessary to mention I really loved it; it was a weird, nice, unique idea that leaves me somewhat sad and sorry for Nino, but it was definitely one of the better fics floating around here in the fandom. Thanks for writing and sharing!
