Wow. Maybe I will say something more when I'm not speechless. Wow. Wow. Amazing. I loved it.

What happens when everyone you love leaves?
Do you waste your time grieving?
Do you love others?
Even when the don't love you?
What happens?

Myriad, this is absolutely stunning. The way you weave together the descriptions and emotions is incredible, and I love the subtlety and quietness.

That was beautiful! love You really showed how important just holding someone's hand is. It's a different kind of intimacy that is overlooked in today's society and I think you really captured the true meaning of hand-holding here. love Wonderful job!! grin

Thank you SO much everyone! I feel like my replies are lacking, but your kind words on this fic truly mean so much to me hugs


Irish_Jedi_Jade: Wow, thank you so much girl! I'm really glad you liked it, there is something subtle about this I like. Oh, and thanks for listening to me prattle on about titles... this one took a long time to name LOL

divapilot: I'm flattered blush I've always seen Mara as being very unobtrusive when it came to situations like this. After all L/M have been through together, sometimes just being together is all they can do for each other rose Thanks again!

walker-of-minds: Well thank you!

KotOR_girl: Thanks for stopping by!

Jade_eyes: Aww thanks gal! You're really too kind... I'm glad you liked this, I really enjoyed writing it grin Hugs right back at ya!

DaenaBenjen: I'm glad you liked, sometimes just being there is all we can do for one another rose

dancing_star: I suppose heartbreaking is the right word for this, but in a bittersweet sort of way wink They can't do much to stop it, so they weather it out. Thanks for reading!

TKeira_Lea: I'm glad the emotion came through clear, thank you!

ginchy: Thanks gal, this is just how I would picture Mara doing, too. No empty words, or attempting to cheer Luke up like profic does sometimes... just her silent presence love

JediXManSerenaKenobi: Raw emotion is what empowers us. Thanks for reading!

Jedi Trace: Indeed, sometimes words just don't fit. Thank you!

Mira_Jade: Wow, thank you! I hoped that's how it would be portrayed. And I'd love it if you wrote something angsty! batting hugs

Jaded_Girl: *blushes* Your review made my day hugs Luke and Mara really do have to stand the test of time, and they do it together. Sometimes there is no other way to describe it other than 'raw' , not only in fanfic but real life. Empty words don't solve problems, only the people you love can do that. Thanks so much for reading!

Gabri_Jade: To me, making sure Luke and Mara was portrayed correctly was the most important goal. I've seen so many fics where Luke angsts a bit about what he's done and Mara soothes his worries. I like the situation, but to me it runs deeper than that. They've been through so much together sometimes there just isn't anything to say. Thanks for reading! grin

Jixa: It was sub-concious, I think. Once I started writing I just didn't stop. Towards the end, where it would have been natural for Mara to say something, I found I had no words for the moment. Then I realized such is life. rose Actions speak louder than words wink

mara_jade_rox: LOL thank you!

path-seeker: Thank you, descriptions are my absolute favorite part of writing grin

Jaina_and_Jag: Holding hands is very sweet, in my opinion love I'm glad you liked this!
