Bet you're glad now that I got there first on the britpic, LOL. If I hadn't I confess I'd be just the same as you. The icon sums up the way I was reading it because no way do you not know what's going to happen, it's just a case of which flashback is the final one.

But damn it's so good. If and when you read it, should that day ever come, you'll see what I mean about the utter wonderfulness too - which admittedly just makes the tragedy of it even harder to bear. So on reflection... yeah, the same story with a happy ending would be the ideal :-D
