Oh, my God, GIRL. This is glorious. This is exactly what I've needed, and what I think the show needs, to fill in those emotional gaps in the narrative - because I am with the plot twists, for the most part, but I've thought through a lot of this series that Moffat desperately needs to lighten up on his pacing to let the beats sink in. But, oh, here you've allowed room for it all to breathe, and the way you've framed it lets everything thread together wonderfully in my mind, and the voices are all so marvelously pitch-perfect but especially Amy's, and I am treasuring this fic, damn, this is just perfection. Sad, wonderful, hopeful perfection.
