Oh-My-God Read This Now "Calvin & Hobbes" Rec

[redbrunja]

Theories About Nuclear Winter by hollycomb 

"Susie follows him out of school silently, as if she's a little irritated by the fact that he's managed talk her into it. Calvin isn't sure how he pulled it off, and he tries not to look at her too much, but suddenly he can't believe she's real. It happened overnight, probably; things usually change while he's asleep, without his permission. He wanted to make up with Susie before he left town just to prove something to his mother, but now he kind of wants to take Susie with him. Though of course she'd never go. "

This fic is so perfect I don't think I have it in me to be articulate; let's just say it's Calvin and it's Susie and it's pitch-perfect and the theme and images repeat so effortlessly that you're just drawn to the next paragraph and the next and the next. I don't often squee when I reached the 'next' button but I was thrilled that I had a whole 'nother livejournal post to wallow in this story.

Isn't it? I've actually read some Calvin & Hobbes fic for Yuletime, and found some fantastic art of DA.

This was the most amazing fic I've read in a long time. I saved it, so that I may read it forever and ever.

It's well worth re-reading. It's in my memories as well.
