Oh, it’s all starting to happen now, isn’t it? I’m excited already!
I love your Naomi so damn much I can’t even begin to tell you (here and every other time you write her). There’s something entirely endearing about how she’s this person who is a bit of a smartass dick and mean to her mum but who’s also wildly innocent and naive when it comes to other people, and I adore how she’s just this normal geeky teenager here who’s trying to do all the things that teenagers do when they try and grow up and figure out things about life and living.
Katie is as charming as always (and by charming I mean charming in that way that Katie ‘freffing’ Fitch can make charming). She’s still got elements of her canon-self, is still the one of the popular girls who cares about how she looks and should be out kissing lots of boys, and she does (or has), and yet it’s just this facade that falls away when she’s around Naomi and turns her into just another teenage girl who’s still a little clueless but figuring the ways of the world out, and she’s rather beautiful and delicate and lovely.
The difference between them so far, that I can see anyway, is that Naomi has sort of analysed this whole possibility of her sexuality before and now that she’s kissing Katie on a regular basis I felt that she wanted to know what it meant and define it so that she could continue her self-discovery. Katie, on the other hand, to me just feels like she’s going with the flow, she likes Naomi but does that mean she’s gay or worrying that she might be? Maybe, maybe not - the point is, I don’t think the definition is as important to Katie, she seems more than comfortable to just jump in and go with the flow, seeing where it takes them, and I’m wondering if this will become an issue for Naomi at some stage (who already seems over the moon about them being together and yet a part of her is still a little niggling ’is this enough?’ - I may be wrong but I guess I’ll just have to see because you’re never going to tell me, are you Flissybear?
The way you’ve developed their friendship and ease into a relationship was so well done though, totally natural and, well, it just felt right, didn’t it?
Emily and her card and her looks that used to be longing but are now just sad and perhaps knowing are making me ache all over the place. We still don’t really know the deal with Naomi/Emily or even that much about the relationship of Katie/Emily here and it totally works. Emily is this enigma here, and I love that even though Naomi is so focused on Katie, there’s these little moments where she’s, for some unknown reason, drawn to Emily. I get the feeling that Emily knows about Katie/Naomi, whether it’s that they’re together or whether it’s just that she knows something is going on between them, but what I’m guessing at/wondering is whether Emily’s foundation in this is supposed to be like canon-Emily - does she have this hidden but long-running crush on Naomi? Does Katie know Emily likes girls? Does Emily know Katie likes girls? So many questions that I’m looking forward to you answering :p
And this is possibly the weirdest time ever for me to say that I think Naomi will realise that while she’s with Katie, she’s been falling in love with Emily the whole time, but, yeah, I just feel like there’s this connection between Naomi/Emily in this. Katie/Naomi is so in your face and they’re happening and Emily is barely even a character so far and yet her tiny moments are the parts that stand out the most for me and leave me wondering.
Oh, and just to make sure that I’m being clear - I LOVE THIS! ♥♥♥
Was I clear that I love YOU?! I'm sure I have been at some point.
Yeah, you're spot on about Katie being a bit more like 'Oh, let's see about this then' whereas Naomi's all 'gah, gay? Yeah? Shit, okay. Right.' and I think having someone like Katie (or who Katie is here) to explore that with is just what she needs.
And, bloody hell, I just can't say anything else. But I'll just say you're close with some things but not with others.
Does that help? Want to smack me a bit yet? Awesome.
Biggest of big ♥ to you, my little slice of cherry pie.
Take another five mins to flail over this icon with me? Thanks.
