Oh wow! I adore this! You write Connor so well (especially his reactions and the language that he uses), and you give some wonderful insights into his character! I also love the structure, very neat. I really enjoy the various things Connor learns or discovers.

I love his suspicious reaction to Justine and that she expresses her wish of how things had gone. The kiss is described really well, and it's neat how it plays into the later thing with Cordy (ie. the confusion between mother-figure and lover):
It is only the second kiss in his life, and very different from Sunny’s; he tastes nothing but anger and grief on her cold lips, and is too startled to do anything in return.

The mingling of Angel and Holtz’s smells on the letter is an interesting concept. And I love your Fred voice, you just nail the way she speaks. And I love Gunn reading behind what she’s saying to the hidden meaning. And the tea moment is really well done. I adore how Fred trails off thinking of Wes and it makes Connor think of Holtz.

I love Connor’s very observational and ‘taking notes’ approach to Fred & Gunn:
Which is another example of Fred and Gunn talking in two different tongues. Connor finds he’s starting to get used to it, because it doesn’t surprise him anymore.

This moment kills me, with Connor trying to imagine his future and then thinking this:
For no reason at all, he thinks of Angelus under the sea, unchanged, undead, twenty years hence.
There's lots of cool parts which emphasize Connor's denial about his more complicated feelings about Angel.

Lovely Gunn and Connor dynamic, especially Connor understanding what Gunn means about aloneness. I love the subtle suggestion that this is why Connor is staying with Gunn & Fred.

Wonderful contrast of the loud and people-filled nightclub with this:
(Angel, under the sea, must be surrounded by utter silence.)
And a wonderful utilization of parentheses.

I like Connor not wanting to obey but still making an effort with buying the tacos. It highlights the many contradictory things he does. And I love how Connor has this concept of Utah in his head which he keeps returning to.

The last section is awesome! And that last line had me in tears. Thanks so much! *g*
