I love you for writing this, oh so much, and I only have one small nitpick: I doubt two boys from Gilead would say "kids" or "weird". :)

I enjoyed it- like a llittle piece of very well could be cannon, and excellently written.

Beautiful and very well written.

Thank you.

I've been looking for something like this. Good to know that I'm not alone when it comes to Roland and Cuthbert ]

;*

Uh, wow. This just happens to be one of my favorite pairings, and you did it right.

I haven't even looked for fear of what I might find on the net, but I stumbled across this and wow.

Thankee-sai!

Gah. This is secretly one of my favorite pairings ever, and you write it PERFECTLY. (And when I say 'perfectly', I clearly mean 'so wonderfully that it would be a crime against humanity, namely me, not to write more of this at least some time in the near future'.) Just. Fuck. Awesome.

Also, I've not even seen any of this before. Honestly, imagine my glee. (And keep it in your head as you write more... and more... and MORE...)

Thank you for writing this, seriously.

Excellent job... Although this story was short, it really did a good job of recreating the atmosphere of the Gunslinger books. Four stars. I'd love it if you'd read my work, but you don't have to. Bravo for you!

I really enjoyed this story. :D Your writing style is great; I could even see Stephen King writing something similar. _

That was sweet, at least the inner part was. But I am a huge Cuthy fan, and would read any sort of Cuthy slash, just because its hime.

*blows a kiss*

coolio! i love cuthbert and roland, but the kissing thing is a little weird. i don't remember tha from the books. oh well, what's done is done, and pretty cool. write more, read some, and think the most, that's what i say. good luck!

Very good start, with a confident writing voice and concise sentences setting the tone perfectly.

Hmm - Roland’s perfectly in character. I’d say Cuthbert less so. Yes, he’d realise a certain gravitas would be needed with his friend, but I don’t know if he could wholly repress that irreverent streak.

‘Roland hadn’t known Cuthbert could be so quiet.’ – touché ;)

‘Even in this dim light Roland could see the blush heating across the bridge of his nose’ – love this line. You’ve a great turn of phrase.

‘...smiled fragilely’. Not so keen on this description - it jars because the rest is so well-written.

And here’s a sound, bleak ending that fits our tragic hero so well. Love that pathos.

I really like this piece. It’s poignant, melancholic, and you left the focal relationship open to interpretation with just that smidgen of slash.

Good stuff!

This is such a sweet, sad fic. Short, but beautifully written. I like how the intimacy is so subtle. I'm sure whoever you wrote this for was very happy with it :D
