! This! This was so, so - charming is the best word, I think. Just mellow and summery and sweet and melancholy, and so, so lovely to read. Awesomeness!

LOLLLLL. HIIIII, C! I am in a hotel en route to DC, done with vacation and figured now is as good a time to catch up on comments, haha. BUT YO, I HOPE WORK AND LIFE HAS BEEN GRAND POST-INTERVIEW AND SINCE THIS COMMENT WAS LEFT. &hearts

LOLLLL HI I'M DRINKING. I have a ton of work to do, I am drinking wine, and apparently going home tomorrow to see my parents for the weekend unexpectedly. I WROTE EAMES/ARTHUR/ARIADNE AND POSTED IT YESTERDAY AT TWO AM AND WAS SAD BECAUSE YOU WEREN'T AROUND LOL TO TELL ME THAT IT WASN'T A CRAZY IDEA. Lol I'm also starting married hipsters with Hardy as a result.

JEALOUS. The amount of family time I've had lately? Not enough booze in the world haha. But have a good weekend! AND AHHH I'LL HAVE TO READ IT! Your crazy ideas are always golden, yo. AND YES!!!

This is everything I've ever wanted in a fic ever. It's wonderful and trippy and just ridiculous enough to be realistic. I want to live this story more then you can even imagine. It's written in a way that I kind of feel like I did. I felt like I was in that car with them and then under the stars while Joe was tripping out about the stars and standing in the sun as the boys left that fateful gas station. Just completely perfect.

Oh, man. Thank you so much! I am immensely flattered to hear you liked this, and your feedback totally made my evening. Seriously: thank you &hearts

I honestly don't even know how I end up reading your fics, like, all the sudden I'm in the middle of them and I'm in some sort of fugue state of like, HOLY JESUS FUCK HOW IS SOMETHING SO AWESOME HAPPENING! HOW DID I GET HERE! with absolutely no memory of a time where this fantastic delightful thing didn't exist in my life.

THEY'RE JUST SO TERRIFIC AND THIS IS NO EXCEPTION! Like, I didn't even know I wanted this? I mean, if asked, I would have said, yes, sure, definitely, I would like to read that, but even answering that way, I don't think I could have imagined anything as perfect as this. All the details, all the dialogue, all the, like, scene-setting? I don't even know how to explain it. I feel like I always give you the worst, most incoherent feedback and you deserve novels of coherent praise, but I just want to flail my hands and scream joyfully!

AHHH YOU! It's been, like, what, a week? Since you left this comment? And then I embarked on a road trip of my own? LOL. But no, dude, this comment made my planet. THANK YOU SO MUCH. You left me all blush-y and wanting to leave hearts and rainbows around your name and what you had to say. COHERENCY BE DAMNED, THANK YOU SO MUCH. And I agree: I had no idea I had any desire to read about JGL and a pack of hipsters on the road, but the second the idea took root in my brain I realized just how into the premise I really was, *laughs*. But seriously, yo: thank you. I AM NOT WORTHY.

FAVORITE FAVORITE FAVORITE. ARTICULACY LATER. ALL MY FAVORITES ARE HIPSTERS.

(Also, can I just say: I got really excited about bonus Nora?)

marketchippie July 31 2010, 07:44:49 UTC

PS: KAT DENNINGS. SAME REACTION x10.

falseeeyelashes August 6 2010, 01:20:12 UTC

THANK YOU SO MUCH!!!! I LOVE HIPSTERS!!!!!! I WANT TO BUST OUT THE HELVETICA AND A LANDSCAPE AND DEVOTE THESE WORDS TO TUMBLR.

(Bonus!Nora! Sometimes I forget how much I love her, haha. AND KAT DENNINGS WAS A GIVEN. Her twitter banter with the Gube sort of makes me happier than it should, *laughs*)
