The first I ever heard of "End of the Road" was the first day I met cesperanza,Deb (starfish) and a number of other fangirls, along with bethbethbeth who was the only one I knew. It was a casual gathering at a restaurant with about 6-7 fans, all Due South people, all Fraser/Kowalski shippers, and Ces and Beth were discussing this brilliant story that was heart-wrenching for them to beta. Everyone at the table agreed that Due South is a happy-ever-ending fandom, and some at the table said they'd never want to read such an unhappy tale.
With my usual perversity, I could hardly wait to read it.
I loved it. LOVED it. Yes, it broke my heart, into itsy-bitsy pieces, but what struck me was yes, if this were a real relationship, this is exactly how it would end. It would have to. No question.
Of course, my happy place is very different from "End of the Road," but that doesn't prevent it from being one of my very favorite stories ever. The first time I met Kat I may have gushed all over her while she blushed prettily at my fawning fangirling. I adore her, and I adore this story.
