Oh god, that was so beautiful. Just... I'm crying right now, but they're happy tears because I love this view of them, seen from outside eyes, from someone who's so close to Martin and knows Martin so well (and yet not at all) and just... wow.
Wow.
I love your Petra. I love worry and the fear and the realization and her constant surprise that's like this internal debate that comes with slow dawning realization. I love that she *knows* Danny is something big and recognizes the affect he has on Martin. I love that she's torn between being happy but still so stuck on old school mentality that it's hard for her to accept. God, she's just so real.
And by default it makes Martin more real. His relationship with Danny more real.
Seriously, this is easily one of my favourite stories, it's just so... profound.
