The scene where Tony hugs Tonio is one of the finest scene I have read anywhere, in any piece of writing. It goes beyond wonderful; it is transcendent.

I must join all those people that have said that they will miss it when it's gone. Your fics are like gifts that we can open again and again, but that first reading is such a special, never-to-be-repeated event.

Writing like this must be exhilarating and emotionally exhausting by turns, given both the subject matter and the quality of the writing. Thank you, thank you, for putting yourself out there like this.
