Reccer's comments: This fic combines retirement and the end of the world into one cohesive, gorgeous whole.  It does a great deal with very few words.  what_alchemy's use of imagery and metaphor is stunning, and the story really captures the love and transcendence in the midst of the tragedy.  It's arresting, indelible work.  (Full disclosure: this fic was technically my gift for Holmestice, but I would have loved it regardless.)
