Dude. I have no idea what you’re talking about. Did I miss something?
Be glad…be very glad. I cannot educate you in these ways, but perhaps RC or semper or stellar hung onto that gif

I think I read that but don’t remember, which means I now need to go and read it. Will I want to kill my self since it’s abandoned?
Uh, well I would HOPE fic could never inspire that, but no, I don’t think so. It inspired ME to write the ending, and if worst comes to worst, I could slip you my draft in exchange for edits. It’s not done either, but there’s really nothing of significance plot wise left dangling. I just have a bit more end of story fluff to write.
So by all means, go read it! And then kick my butt so I finish my ending for it.
Also – I totally figured he was straight, I just thought the song lyric sounds nothing like the word “you” and “him” totallyyyy works for your story
Yeah, it really does. I’m so glad you like the song. He’s really such a talent.
Oh I’d never tell – don’t worry! It was just wondering. Some people are surprisingly accepting, others not so much!
For the most part I don’t give people the option of proving they’re accepting. And I didn’t really think you’d tell, I just had a minor panic attack at the thought of it, lol.
Yes! I’m Soupnazi LOL
*headdesk* I’m such a dork. And now I swear we’ve had this conversation before
Hey! I have a question… doesn’t it it sound like “wake up with him” in Honey Moon instead of “wake up with you”? Also, does he know you referenced his song for your fic?!
NO! And you can never tell him! My RL does not know what I write, except for Geek Boy Professor, because I promised to share everything with him in front of the universe and a bunch of friends and family. David can’t know. And actually, he would probably take down that youtube if he saw it… He’s very sensitive about people streaming entire songs for free, and I totally understand it considering how he struggles financially and songs are only a buck. But I figure I own all of his stuff, and I’m basically sort of advertising what a talent he is, so I can justify linking one song to my story.
Regarding the lyrics, I agree that line sounds off. I always heard it as “Honey Moon wake up right here” but that’s not what was listed on the site, so…
I like “with him.” Works in my story. David is definitely straight, though, so unlikely that he would sing that.
Yes! I’m Soupnazi LOL

Wait, are you Soupnazi21 on AO3 (I’m so hopelessly bad at keeping track of people’s IDs on different sites), or have I actually turned TWO people onto that song?
Either way, thank you so much. I was playing it on repeat as I wrote much of this chapter, trying to capture the feeling of that song in my writing, and make sure we had completely overwritten the jealousy and angst of the beginning chapters of the story. I’m so glad you liked the story, AND the song. I’m sort of thrilled some new people might actually appreciate David Poe, now. If you want to explore, some of my other favorites by him are “Reunion” (hysterical and a bit dark if you listen for it), “Apartment”, “Love is Red”, “Not Enough Night”, “Blue Glass Falls” (angry break up song), “Doxology”, and “These are the Days” and that’s just off the top of my head…
Oh, and a funny story about “Honey Moon.” I’m on David’s mailing list, and got a signed copy of the album before it was released. And he and I have met and occasionally email each other about where he’s touring, etc… he’s actually written me about advice on cover artwork before, just surveying a few fans. Anyway, I was so excited to hear his new album “God and the Girl” that I just immediately put it in my computer to get it loaded into iTunes. And I started playing before it had finished ripping. So Honey Moon started playing (because it’s first on the album), but then instead of playing the next song on God and the Girl, my computer just picks another random David Poe song from the (extensive) library, and it chose “The Settlement”, which is about a divorce.
I thought this was hysterical (obviously), and wrote to David to tell him what happened, and that it felt like he’d written this very abbreviated, REALLY sad story. He wrote back tickled, saying even HE would write something that sad, and then apparently told a bunch of his friends. He hadn’t ever considered pairing those songs but acknowledged that the effect was pretty devastating.
He’s enormously talented and pretty much broke, so please buy his music if you like it.

And thanks so much about your comments on Cleaving. I just had someone ask me for the address, I think because you’ve been reblogging my teasers.
Last night I started doing the research I needed for the epilogue… so I’m trying to keep the momentum up…
