I can't do justice to the perfect voices in this one, so just: they're perfect.
I think my very favorite thing, though, is almost an aside--Vecchio's "Figures. Never could manage to have one of you without the other." There's just SO MUCH there, a whole NOVEL there in one line, and so much angst and yet it's so hopeful, because there's so much hurt there but they keep TRYING...
That was an avalanche in a snowball-sized line. Wow.
