New PCaRG review is up! · 3:26am Feb 19th, 2016
Finally I finished this thing! It is exceedingly long, but then again, I don't think I ever had such conflicting opinions about the same story. Check it out here.
Paul Asaran – The Gentle Nights
Romantic Drama
That cover art sure is gorgeous.
The short version is this:
The Gentle Nights is a fantastic fic, with one of the best paced romances you can find on this site, great prose, and one of the best characterized Octavia's I could point out – on par with some of my favourites using the character, like Exit Through Canterlot or Octavia Takes the Bus. It isn't perfect, it has some weird issues, and it often makes me hate the characters in a way that I am sure was unintended, but I can't really fault a fic for making me feel so strongly about it.
The long version is that, plus almost 4k words.
OMG ur alive
Also yes, yes, this is a fantastic story.
