Why rec'd? This fic is gorgeous. It's lyrical, soft, and gently surreal. Lymricks gets to the heart of the characters in a beautiful and surprising way. In all honesty, this fic never fails to make me cry. And bonus points for beautiful use of poetry. I decided to use the character study tag for this fic, but really it defies classification.
