Analytical novel? Me? Pfft, NEVER! I am concise and calm and oh, fuck it.

Yes, I adore the Dark Years as much as Aldi does, and for all the same reasons. Deniz and Roman are at their best when their suffering and messed up, and the DY was just full of awesomesauce for me, because I'm the kind of person who LOVES filling in blanks. I kind of like the fact that because the writing kind of sucked and the DeRo plot was almost nonexistent, we could basically make it up ourselves. The fun of stories like this is that while they would never be considered as canon by anyone but us (hahahahaha, HAI, ALDI, I SEE YOU THERE, DECLARING CANON)they actually WORK. They fit, because they have to fit, because what we were actually given by Show doesn't.

I'll just borrows Aldi's comment to say everything else:

Oh Deniz, why do you rock the hardest when you're fucked seven ways to hell!

WORD AND FOREVER WORD.
