Oh, what a WONDERFUL fic! I adored it! The redemption theme combined with the unique take on post-war healing was simply brilliant. Your delicious descriptions of this kink made it beautiful, not perverse, too. I am now curious to learn more about it, thanks to you. I absolutely loved the ending, where we're left hoping that the two of them can make something good and clean and long-lasting from this whole mess (pun intended). LOVELY, dahling!
