AN: Upon the return of Decathalon, I realized that I had pieces of the final four events that remained of my Decathalon sitting on my harddrive. For completion's sake, I've shined them up and figured I'd post them here.
Other pieces in this series include:Paper Soaked in Gasoline, PG-13 Line in the Sand, R When, R Never Should Have, PG-13 Taking Advantage, R Dangerous, PG

This would have been:

Alanna:


I never meant to go this far.

It—I…

There’s no explanation. You always did clean up my messes. I’m sorry, as much as I can be.


He is…everything I have dreamed of, these years since you gained your knight-hood. Yes, dreams.
I can only hope it is some kind of compulsion that brought me this far, but by now it doesn’t matter.

He’s more than I have ever imagined.

You must stop him. No, I don’t know how.

Stop scowling at me and pay attention.

He is mad.

You must destroy him.




I love you too.




Thom

[ubiquitous]

Aww. I love how you've characterised Thom in this. Wonderful.

[Ankhiale]

Whoo. Yesssssss.

[Muse]

I'm glad you liked it!!

[Tamari]

Found one!

Side note: I love your summary, even though it's technically not part of the fic.

The writing itself is lovely and sounds a lot like canon letters and like Thom, particularly this: Stop scowling at me and pay attention.

I love this because it is tragic and sweet and funny (like the line above) all together, and you can feel... feels... coming through. It's all wonderful, from the simple structure near the end -- He is mad. You must destroy him. I love you too. Thom -- to the bit of him that's not apologetic -- I’m sorry, as much as I can be.

Yay Muse.
