I love the analagy to the rose! And I think that this story is really good so far! I am glad that you are telling us the backstory to all of this, because then I will understand everything about Silence! Love it, and please continue!

That was good - slash that - super amazingly awesome! I can't wait for the next chapter!

It's nice to know Mia's background and her life, looking at Silence with new eyes already! Keep up the good work!

Great set-up you have here! I'm afraid I haven't read the original 'Silence' one-shot, but this has caught my attention all the same. This bits of French are a nice touch. ]
