Thank you so much!

I think it was nice to see how upset Will got by her irresponsible behavior, at the same time that he was very sweet and understanding and protective. All of which are my favorite Wills (no, shut up, that's totally legit).

Haha, I will not argue with you. I have so many favorite Wills it's ridiculous. I'm glad too that you got this from the scene. I wanted to have Will walking that line between needing to be the authority figure but at the same time just being concerned about his girlfriend.

I much prefer this fanon version of events to canon...new head!canon successfully applied.

I prefer this too!

This sounds like foreshadowing and now I'm nervous and sad...

I suppose it has to has to happen some time. I really wanted to take my time developing their relationship and really allow them to fall in love and let the reader see that. But things can't always be perfect, right?

The OS tie in was perfect--I am so glad they lost because of the altered universe. It's a detail like this that really sells me on a story that's AU but involves established moments.

I'm really glad you like the episode tie-ins. I didn't want to ignore what had happened the second half of the season completely, so I wanted to explore the ideas with the changed situation. I'm glad it worked for you. :)

Oh, and the make out/grinding scenes? MORE, PLEASE. Seriously, she's ready, Will's ready, I'M ready; it's your turn to be ready and write the next chapter!!!

HAHA, I'm ready too. In fact, I'm halfway done with the next chapter! And I start vacation tomorrow for two weeks and this year I am being lame and going home, where I don't really know anyone but my parents. So, I'll be mostly free to write. Hopefully, I'll get a jump on the next few chapters of this story, finish revising the angst fic and finish the cliche_30 fic. That's the goal!

I think your pacing so far is perfect--especially with your shorter passages over a longer period of time, I can really feel this relationship growing and rounding out. I'm sure your pacing with issues will be good and natural, too.

In fact, I'm halfway done with the next chapter!

YESSSSSSS! Oh my God, this makes me so happy! AND a cliche_30 fic? Ah, please, please!
