Flight Attendant: 0 - Emergency Response Mode in 1.4 Seconds

Sep 15, 2010 17:14

Holy crap, you guys! I was just sitting in the Minneapolis-St.Paul International Airport talking to my dad on my phone when this eighty-year-old man collapsed just across the hall. It was like I turned into flight attendant girl in an instant, totally abandoning my bags and purse, hanging up my phone without a word, and running across the hall, ( Read more... )

OMG! WHEEEEEE!!!!!!! This is like the best thing EVER! *flails and capslocks like crazy*

Oh my goodness, what an absolutely amazingly wonderful surprise to come home to after working one of the most horrible days of the year in the airline biz. I was exhausted and irritable and just all around meh, but then I checked my email and THIS PIECE OF GLORIOUS FIC was there waiting to cheer me up!

This is so like Scotty-- I can just see him rationalizing why he's not telling Chekov. And this description Finally, it gets to the point where he's carrying the words high in his chest, near the base of his throat, everywhere he goes. was so lovely-- I could almost feel it along with him. I liked the orange blobby things that looked kinda like kippers (hehe!) and McCoy killing the mood with his dire-sounding medical talk and the little details about them passing in the halls ... and I loved how Chekov told Scotty that he loved him and totally insulted him all in the same breath. THAT is exactly my favorite kind of Chekov!

I am grinning so huge right now, you have no idea! Thanks so much, bb! Your time could not possibly have been more perfect. Now you must hurry up and go post this at the scotty chekov comm ... actually, maybe you should wait until after Thanksgiving so that people aren't so distracted and notice it more, because this deserves so much love! ♥♥♥♥ Thank you, darling!

There are really no words I know to adequately express how happy your reaction makes me. I knew today would kind of suck for you, so I'm glad this piece made it a little bit better. You kind of rock, you know! That needs to be mentioned.

I love writing Chekov where he's being intensely logical about their relationship. It doesn't really strike him that he should be nervous about the age difference because Scotty is sweet and brilliant and gives him a blowjob everytime he turns around. Things will work out! Chekov is convinced! He will simply hang onto his confidence. That will be enough. *nod nod nod*

Anyway, I am ecstatic you like it! I did want to wait for your nod to post it to scotty_chekov, because after all, it is your fic.

Survive Thankgsiving! Woo!

The fact that you consciously chose to post this on this particular day, knowing just how awful it tends to be, well, that warms my heart more than anything else. I'm so thankful for you! *adores*

And YES, post away, because it's wonderful. Everyone will be totally jealous when they see how lucky I am to have received such brilliance. *beams proudly*
