It says a lot, I think. It's funny, when I started, I had a handful of scenes and snapshots in my head - I wasn't intending to 'fix' their lives with it(in as much as they could be fixed) but as I was working through what was going on and what effects it would be having, I realized... crap. I think I made things *better*. Wonderful surprise to stumble across halfway through writing a story heh.
