heeeeeee. I will have you know I snuck on to LJ just to read this, lol. I think my favorite is the mistletoe kiss. I can hear Jane saying "Hush woman" in my head and it makes me grin a lot, lol. Very well done, though, on all of them! I mean it! Excellent work ^_^

(how have you let me get away with not having a TM icon???)

Heeeeeee. You're so sneaky, bb. The mistletoe one kinda snuck up on me. IDEK, it was originally going to be more friendshippy. And thanks, love. ♥

I do not know. I DO NOT. I may make you make me Carter/Anna icons at some point, though, to make up for it. As a side note, ER made the prelim list for Yuletide. IF IT STAYS, I AM REQUESTING EITHER DOUG/CAROL OR CARTER/ANNA. And you need a TM icon.

*g*!

LOLLLL. You do owe me a Lobster!Tom icon. I won't let you forget. I WON'T! And yeah, I'm super excited/hopeful that it'll make the final cut. I'll find out soon. YES, I will make sure you rectify that. I know where lots of good ones are ;)!

I love this. I needed my Lisbon/Jane love to come back properly, and this has just done it.

My favourite, perhaps oddly, is ii. I can so clearly picture that scene in her living room, and the way you describe the quiet sadness and intimacy is beautiful.

Elsewhere, Van Pelt asks Rigsby to send her a copy of the pictures.
Heeee.

The last part is so gorgeous. I adore the final line. And the attic scene from iv? I love that so much, too.

I love you. This season has renewed my J/L love in full, not that I really needed it. THE PARALLELS. OH MAN. Wait until you catch up and I finish writing that ship essay.

Thank you. Thaaaaank you! You're a doll.

Brilliant! :) Absolutely brilliant, I'm going to review on FF.net once I'm finished reviewing here but I just wanted to put my thoughts across in both places, I hope you don't mind. :)

iii is just heartwarming, and I especially love the last line:

Elsewhere, Van Pelt asks Rigsby to send her a copy of the pictures.

I just....jisjfisjfuahduad!

I seriously have no words for that. (I should find some words, but the only words that are coming to my mind after reading this is beautiful and lovely, which means I either need to find a dictionary or make up words. :D)

Hee. Well, I'm honored ♥

I'm a stalker, I know *creepy grin* <- super scary

Believe it or not, I STILL could say QUITE a few things. YES. OH YES BABY, I have words left. It's hard to shut me up when I'm excited about something! (Can you tell I'm excited -and sleepy-?)

But yes.

LOVELOVELOVE.

This was so sweet. I have some stuff added to my to-draw list. It was just THAT awesome *still in the after-waff bliss*
