Reactions and Reviews
I was sorting out my google docs and found a list of older lads fic I'd collated for Palelyoitering.com (gosh, which really needs updating now that marking's over, doesn't it...) Anyway - I flicked down and clicked on Sentinels, and loved it all over again...It's rather a comfort story, somehow without the hurt being too close, but it's more than that too, because it's an understanding story, one of my favourites where it's done so simply, without belabouring, and I love them both all the better for it...
*sighs happily for Castalia fic* [1]
I just love this piece of writing - there's something about the phrase 'the need to map me' which always really gets to me:Then come the kisses, the need to map me. As if Bodie, in these dreams of his, forgets my shape, my taste.
and the image of vulnerable Bodie holding on for comfort, nuzzling Ray (who doesn't really mind....), and you can almost substitute 'nuzzling' for 'suckling', like a suckling baby. So many basic, primal instincts here, fighting for attention. [2]
Yes! It really is a beautiful piece of writing, isn't it - I find most of Castalia's work like that, just wonderful... I love the idea of Doyle just lying there, knowing Bodie so well and as you say, letting him, because he doesn't mind really, cos it's Bodie, and Bodie can have whatever he wants... And Bodie afterwards, for all it feels odd to him, still being able to go about ordinary life, because he knows that Doyle gets it, and... Castalia's so good with all those lovely layers! [3]
I haven't read this before. Very comforting, Doyle soothing Bodie's nightmares, and Bodie watching over Doyle, making sure he takes his meds. [4]
