Reactions and Reviews
This fic starts promisingly by claiming to be 'The Last, Best Hope' only with alternate ending! Since I love 'The Last, Best Hope' and hate 'The Long Way Back' I was deeply excited for something different to happen. Alas, what happens instead is firmly based in the stuff I hate about LWB - they both remember their boyhood love and Avon is now so sweet and docile that Blake's narrative says of him:Something had changed him, made him nearly unrecognisable-
I agree. So... why am I reading this? I thought we all liked Avon...
Also, the revelation that Blake remembers everything too is incredibly sudden and doesn't accord with any of his earlier reactions. I feel disappointed for getting excited.[1]
