Why this must be read:

The atmosphere of this story is astounding. nightanddaze manages to cross two wildly different shows - both in subject matter and tone - and do it beautifully. One of the most striking things is that we see the world through Godric's eyes. It's quite difficult to get across the age of such a character and yet she makes it look effortless. Just a gorgeous, lyrical, insightful little story that says so much and implies even more.

Back in the suburb, Nate Fick is likely just waking up, stretching out in his bed, his hands and knees brushing his partner. He will get up, eat his breakfast, dress and go to work, where he will do the important things he does, and then he will come home, just as the sun is starting to dip. And then Godric will see him again after the sun has gone down, when he leaves the house for his run, his hands in loose fists and his eyes always looking forward. Perhaps this time Godric will speak to him.
