Thank you!

I love stories about healing. Hurt/comfort is probably my biggest kink (well-written hurt/comfort; I've had just about all the OOC stories where one of the characters cuts and listens to emo music that I can stand). And I think Draco definitely needed someone else to listen to him in this story; left alone, he would just have brooded on everything until he exploded.

If the story had been a chaptered fic, I might have gone for the perfectly happy ending. But maybe not; I did like the way that the openness and messiness of the ending tied into the rest of the themes I used.

And thank you! There's always a risk, with an OC, that he'll take over the story and seem like a less likable character just because of that. Glad I managed to strike the Raphael balance for you.
