Not to be presumptuous but I suspect OP Syrena will have no problem at all with all the Susan feels. (Of course this means that you must turn your considerable skill to a happy Susan story now, am I right?) This is lovely and most of all so grounded. Susan is an expert in good byes, she would have to be. The Blitz was terrible and of course she's been down this road before. I also love the easy way she moves among her friends and loves, girl, dryad, man, family. It's just so Susan. Thank you for sharing this.
