This. Was. BEAUTIFUL!

I'll admit I especially loved the part about Alfred's childhood, it made my heart ache.

Keep up the excellent writing! You have a lot of talent.

I really like this! I like the views of what each of them have lost and how it affects them. :)

This was beautifully written

Ah-! Gods this was... was so...

The Canada one? MADE ME CRY. Made /me/ cry. For something fictional. That has never happened before but once. Once, in as long as I've been reading. And I sobbed. I bawled, until Mr. Brown came up and took me outside to ask what was wrong. I couldn't help myself...!

This was a great little one-shot! I love how you explored each relationship and how each of them doesn't get what they want. Sorry my review is lame xP

I'll have you know, this inspired me to write a drabble! It's way different but... mehh that's life I guess.
