There's only few words I'd like to say about this fic. It was written in a matter of only few months since the deadline of the fic competition was closing in on me, if I remember right. Or then it was my personal deadline, meh. Anyway, the fic won in two categories, best ending & best world (if I remember right, again) and I was so damn proud of it. It was a bitch to write. Well no, I enjoyed every moment of it after I got the whole plot figured out, but before that, it truly was a bitch. I wasn't sure if the writing is ok, I didn't know whether people would like the idea or the characters and I was just, in a word, insecure. The biggest muse I had with this thing was 'Poets of the Fall' - J, yes, my gay best friend had just introduced me to this great Finnish band and so I listened to it every day and night... and it gave me this ticklish feeling that fit with the fic style. About that style - this is the first fic where I really, truly and deeply tried to explore the main characters emotions and thoughts instead of just skipping from one scene to another. I do that too, but since it was a fiction competition, I didn't want my fic to be too long.
Anyways, I fell in love with Raven and Romy, with the world I had created and with the feeling writing this fic gave me. Hence the fact it got turned into a series.
