Aaaah, this is so ridiculously good!!!

I like your Blair always, but I thought she was so very especially good in this chapter. Her dialogue with Serena (all the dialogue was so snappy and good), her thoughts on Serena's wedding day, her studied avoidance of Dan and the sort of helpless attraction she seems to feel towards him, her panic when Chuck arrives -- it was just all. so. good.

And Nate and Serena's wedding vows, be still my heart. It was all perfect. And paralleling Dan/Blair's ONS with Nate and Serena's (plus Chuck's creeping) from the pilot was awesome too.

I want to hug this comment, I seriously do. I actually find Blair the most difficult of everyone to write (except maybe Jenny), and I'm always second-guessing myself when it comes to her, so this really does make me all kinds of happy. Thank you so much for reading and commenting!

Wow, this story really is amazing! You do such a great job with the dialogue and I agree about the parallels, its feels kinda dirty but appropriate.

This is so gripping. You have to love that Chuck still witnesses all the illicit wedding sex.

Oh, Blair. It's consistently so hard to decide whether she needs a hug or someone to knock some sense into her. Probably both.

I really love your Nate. I like how assertive he is here

I'm kind of toying with role reversal in this fic, so Chuck witnessing wedding sex seemed kind of essential. :P Thank you for reading and commenting!

This fic is freaking fantastic and perfect and I can't deal with coming to the end of the chapter... I just need more.

I really appreciated this chapter because of the lack of the present in which this happy Serenate is no longer alive... but I am still looking forward to Dair parenting their kids...

I love, love, love Serenate, you just.. get them. And their vows, and all of that, was so cute and them, and adorable.

And so now we know more about what transpired between Dan and Blair, though I'm guessing there's way more...

but casual sex after her break up with Louis and then again at the wedding soubds about right... specially if Dan doesn't think of it as casual at all.

Also, did I mention that this fic is hot as hell? Because it is. I can never appreciate enough a B Waldorf walking out of Humphrey sex to encounter stupid-Bass... it's simply perfect.

I think everything is perfect, really... and I hate your computer for delaying this and cannot wait to read what comes next.

Thank you! I plan on alternating between past and present, so Nate & Serena will be alive for at least half of this fic in total. This is only one part of the history DB have by this fic's present day, so there's definitely more to come! Thanks, again, for reading and commenting.
