Good job! Nice way to start off the Big Bang posting week!

[grachonok]

Thank you!

[mag7_brooks]

The Big Bang is off with a bang! A lovely, believable portrait of a team coming together. Loved how you gave equal time and backstory to all!

And the art is gorgeous! Absolutely amazing!

Can't wait to see what the challenge has in store for us next!

[grachonok]

Thank you! I tried to include everyone, usually the ATF-formation stories only focus on one last-to-join member...

[valiha]

Thank you, I'm honored you liked the art! :)
*blushes*

What a great way to start off the fest! I love a good origin story, and meeting the characters all over again from a modern viewpoint was a real pleasure.

And the art! I was incredibly pleased when I caught on to there being an image for every character's introduction, and that last one of AD Travis with the rainbow is just fantastic.

[grachonok]

Thank you! Glad you liked it:).

[snip]here being an image for every character's introduction[snip]

Thank you! I had doubts about where to place some of them, but it all turned out well. I'm pleased with AD Travis and the rainbow, if I do say so myself! :)

[grachonok]

Wow! The art is... incredible! (lost all the words here, lol) Like the idea, and the execution is just perfect! They do reflect the story, and, boy, I do love Chris! :) Guess my favorirte one (right now:)) is the one with JD, and the last one is just gorgeous, with the AD staring right at me:). Thank you so much! *hugs*

[grachonok]

And I'm really flattered to be the opening author:).

[valiha]

Thank you, darling! *hugs* I must say I'm mad about there being very, very few images of Rick Worthy out there; I had a hard time finding a good image for the banner.

It took me longer than expected to finish them, and I was scrambling madly until the very last moment, but it was worth it. I was truly inspired by the story. Let's do this again next year! :D

In addition, I have an icon for you, if you want to use it. You can leave permission for it to be used by others, if you only ever use your own icons.

[grachonok]

Totally with you when it comes to lack of Rick's images! That's just not fair!

Yes, let's do it again in a year:). Though I'm afraid I'll have to come with a new AU for that - it looks like I'm able to write a long story only if it's a 'gathering the team'-one:).

Icon is wonderful, grabbed it already as you can see :) (with all due credit, of course).

Great story. What a way to start the M7 BigBang...

[grachonok]

Thank you!
