This fic is everything. I have no right words for it. I can't possibly describe it and do it justice.
It's just like that painting, real and just so right. An amazing work of art.
I'm a painter myself (fine, I dabble with paints) and I loved the set up. And I just can't get past the way you managed to capture the picture in words. It's so perfect. Magical. And the characters... They were all themselves, even with those roles.
I just loved it. The whole thing.

noooo how can you stop there? I want to know what happens next, will they be a couple? and this whole in-love-with-giles thing and his coming home late is way to vague. and my god i still got shivers running down my spine where the hell did you learn to write and discribe situations like that?!

*squeaks* You left it *there*?! Please tell me you're doing a sequel. *xanderpuppyeyes* Please?

I've always been curious what the title means? I know I read this on your LJ, but don't remember it too clearly, so it's likely I missed it on there if you did post the meaning.

beautiful fic, i really enjoyed it. I'd love to see the painting!

This...was beautiful.

That's all I have to say.

BEAUTIFUL.

*sigh*

This absolutely deserves feedback.
It takes a vignette to another level and provides insight into concept of dom/sub world that most don't bother to attempt - dominance isn't always obvious, but the need is definite.
Putting it into an artistic expression is and using the tools of the art for realism was excellent.
