A revolution without dancing - Karen fanfic

Title: A revolution without dancing
Author: Odette
Rating: PG
Word Count: 709

Karen does not go to college.

I posted this on Livejournal a bit ago, so some of you may have already seen it, but I thought I'd share it here, too, because Karen needs some love.  :)

Thank you.  :)
And, yes, it's a one-shot, though I will probably write more Karen fic in the future.

 wow, that was really good. loved it! you did so much with so little.

 I really do like Karen and Aftran. I really liked how the three (Karen, Aftran, and Cassie) had like multiple themes going and how sad it all was!

 thanks!

This is very well done, Odette. :D
Honestly, if you wanted to take this MUCH farther, you COULD. Your ending gives peace, but it sufficiently inconclusive to provide for a plot.

I'll not tell you how to write, though. :)

Haha, probably I could, Estelore, but for some reason I'm not one for multi-chaptered fics.

And thank you.  :)

Pray forgive me for bumping this, after so long.

Today I remembered this fanfic. The last time I read it was two years ago, and back then it carried deep meaning for me. The second reading brought an ache in my heart and mind, because the person I was two years ago found this to be a healing thing to read, but the person I am now finds it a pale echo of memory.

Sometimes re-reads do that to you, y'know?

I still love it, no question.

There are people in RAF who were not here two years ago. I hope they find this as worthy as I did.

Absolutely fantastic. I was just rereading #19 tonight, oddly enough. It made a very fitting epilogue.
