icon but i've got a question!

Since we're all fandom happy around here, I've got a fandomy question! For those fic junkies out there, what fics have made you cry? I'm a total lush so I cry a lot but there are a couple of stories that come to mind that I can't even read anymore because I know I'll end up sobbing. Okay, so maybe stories that make you sob or cry. Any fanfic that does that to you? Share them!

I've teared up here and there at plenty of fic, but I don't think I've ever actually cried reading any.

I cry all the time writing fic, though. I think it's because I'm trying to get into the characters' heads and thus end up even more emotionally invested/connected to them.

Maybe this transfers to your readers too because a lot of the time I feel viscerally connected to your writing that it affects me. I mean, causes me to physically or verbally react (hard to read at work but I do it anyway). I think that that emotion that you have, writing through them, transfers really well.
