OMG! I was just writing you a very long, very detailed response to my beautiful story here, and of course my internet shuts down for some random reason. Of course. *lol* Well let me start over again, because I can not write a short response for this, it's just too lovely. ^_^
First of all, this is exactly what I was hoping to see in a story, especially a Tom/Luna one! They're very hard characters to write, and this is a rare pairing, but you've brought them together so beautifully and you've written their character's perfectly. I was flabbergasted while reading this. Grinning like a maniac the whole time. *lol*
The first time Tom sees her was lovely and a perfect "Tom moment". I love how he's so suspicious of her just because she's something new, something he's never seen before. And the fact that he thinks she looks like a angel (because she does) was incredibly sweet. And of course Tom makes her beauty something bad, because she's too distracting. *giggles* Oh Tom, such a sweet boy. Haha!
I love how Luna doesn't accept that Tom was born evil, like everyone else has. I don't believe that someone can be pure evil, and I'm happy that Luna is the one who decides to travel back to save him because I think that she above all others would see that he was never loved so he in turn doesn't know how to love. This line was especially beautiful: "Luna remains silent. No wonder no one could break him, she thinks. He has been nothing but shards for years." *sighs* That was perfect, and exactly the reason why Tom is the way he is.
Oh, and I love that Luna doesn't attend classes! :) It's a new twist on the time travel story, because usually the person/people attend classes as a fake transfer student or what not, but I like that Luna doesn't pretend. She's here for Tom (and Myrtle) not for more lessons. Tom's denial of who she really is, even though she told him the truth right away, was a new twist as well. He doesn't want to really believe her, but I think he may. She's not a threatening person though, so he's more interested in her than in his future. Love it!
Luna's friendship with Myrtle makes perfect sense. Myrtle would love someone like Luna because Luna understands what it's like to be ridiculed and sometimes the best friends are the ones you can relate to. :)
(My post is too long! I love it when responses take up two posts.) Haha!
