Belongs in "Romance!" :^) :^)

Worth good dozen stars at the least.

A lovely fairy tale and a fitting tribute that manages to capture some of the song's sense of melancholy.

I appreciate how you portrayed an introvert's feeling of sinking deeper and deeper into oneself. Such a bizarre mix of comfort/satisfaction and loneliness/pain.

<br>

I particularly liked the paragraph that begins, "It filled him up, and made him feel hollow." What a wonderful set of contradictions that paragraph conveys.

It's difficult to generate genuine emotion in a short fantasy piece that doesn't allow much space for the characters to breathe (in this case, literally). But you pull it off. Well done!

5 Stars! Brilliantly executed! Thank you for sharing.

It's a christmas miracle, so of course 5*. I liked the pacing and the way you managed to build a world and delivery a HEA inside 1800 words!

But, I was expecting them to be singing "Galway Bay" :-)

Nicely done!

Stunning. Breathtaking. Original. Brilliant. Another absolute homerun from you, as far as I am concerned. Maybe your best work yet, honestly. I hope you win the competition with this. You are an inspiration, and I raise my glass to you tonight. Cheers!

Dark and different, and so much the better for both. 💙

Beautifully crafted short story. I love it.

Aww. I had to see what all the comments were about and I was not disappointed. You've done more in 1800 words than I could in 18k.

This was so sweet! 😭

At a personal level, this is not to my taste. But it's clearly very well done. It's tender and the descriptions are evocative. Good five starr job!

That was absolutely beautiful.

So moving. Just gorgeous.

And haven't we all felt like a troll sometimes?

Well done, sweet little story.

Wonderful little fairy tale. Out of the park, bud.
