Holy shit on a stick, this totally deserves a de-anon. I love you, and I love this fic, and I love how it ended. Love it, love it, love it~~!! *in happy place* I never expected one of my prompts to have such an epic fill! *hugs*
I cried when you had Des send Altair out of the room, because he was missing Salai, and I really, really wanted Altair to take Salai with him to Des. And for Altair to take Malik with him, too. But I know that wouldn't work, not in this world that you've created. I love realistic endings, btw. Happy endings are good and make me have warm fuzzies, but realistic endings, while gut-wrenching, are absolutely wonderful. <3
This fic makes me want more Des/Salai, because they'd be an awesome couple. (Could you imagine a modern AU with them together and the whole Shaun-Salai snark fest that would happen? *totally gonna post that prompt*)
I'm curious about to what future Des is going to get. But a future that won't end in heartbreak might not even involve all the people they had to leave behind.
OP!
