HA.

I have been waiting for you to write a fic for this show. It was inevitable.

[falseeeyelashes]

Hahahaha. YOU KNOW ME TOO WELL.

It certainly was inevitable. I blame the Portia-factor.

I saw your username and I saw fic and I saw Better Off Ted and I thought, "yeah, that sounds about right."

[falseeeyelashes]

Hahahaha. LOVE IT.

I popped a benadryl while writing this. I think that explains a lot, heh.

I have no clue who any of these characters are, but this is delightful! It completely captured me, and I love the pure absurdism of the situation (Which! Incidentally! Are you watching Dollhouse? Because A) you should be, and B) there is an episode that has a lot in common with the circumstances you set up, which amuses me.) What fun!

[falseeeyelashes]

Aw, thank you, love! (And no! I haven't! I keep meaning to sit down and watch it, but I haven't yet! And that is so, so funny that there is an episode like this fic! Haha! That definitely makes me want to go watch!)

[falseeeyelashes]

Thank you so, so much!

And I KNOW! Veronica is my favorite female character to show up on television in a long, long time.

Bwahahahahaha! Oh, man, this is DELIGHTFUL! I just got done watching tonight's episode, so it's like I get bonus Better Off Ted joy! I love the way you worked the whole science team in, and the series of events that led to Ted and Veronica getting infected was hilarious, AND!

“They’re not allowed to lock us in here,” Veronica keeps repeating. “That is not allowed. That is not allowed at all. I am an authority figure. I have always been an authority figure. I’ve got the authority. Don’t do the crime if you can’t do the time - ”

“That doesn’t even make sense,” Ted finds himself saying. “You don’t even make sense. You with your gold hair and your fancy lady suits - ”

“Powersuits, Ted. They’re called powersuits. I wear powersuits because I am in charge and I have the authority and they’re not allowed to lock us in here like we’re lepers or old people.”

“Stop pacing. I can’t stop staring at your legs.”Bwahahahaha, BEST! The fact that I have to spend the evening studying horrible literary criticism just got less bleak, because at least

THANK YOU SO MUCH, YOU! I had a blast writing this, haha. And the science team! I love Phil and Lem so, so much - they definitely had to be a part of these hijinks, hee.

I am glad that I was able to make the bleak life of a student that much better!!! &hearts
