Have you sent this pic to Lanning yet? Gotten a response?

Having just read this, I wouldn't worry about it being to spoilerific. Yes, it makes the outcome of that scene pretty clear... but reading the whole story? You wouldn't realize when it was coming until you got to that point in the story... and by that point you'd have to be wildly tuned out not to realize what's going to happen. The description made it really taut and sweet to read, but I, for one, was positive about the outcome. I don't think seeing the picture ahead of time would have spoiled it for me so much as just enhanced the image conveyed by the writing. You really did capture the scene exceedingly well. ^_~
