These chapters were great! I don't know what you were worried about.

Poor Jeff and Annie. Those crazy kids can never get a moments peace to sort their feelings for each other out before someone interrupts them lol.

And the chapter dedication was awesome. You're the best! :)

I dunno. They felt a little disjointed when it was all one big chapter. And I thought it was even worse once I had to split it up because LJ wouldn't let me post it as one chapter.

Well, at least time it wasn't Abed, right?

You're welcome. Strangely enough, I met a girl today who's from Melbourne. It was completely unexpected.

"Strangely enough, I met a girl today who's from Melbourne. It was completely unexpected."

Haha that is a little weird. Us Melburnians get around. Ask her if she knows me lol. :P

lapacifidora October 8 2010, 17:27:57 UTC

Well, I did mention that I had a friend from Melbourne. And she's all, "Where're they from?" And I'm all, "Um. IDK. OK, it's not some weird, creepy thing: We both are part of this online writing group." (Mostly true.) And she's all, "OK." ::end of discussion::

I love this chapter!

Two things about it:

1. I really liked Annie talking about why she didn't go with Vaughn. It sounds so "Annie-ish," like something from the actual show.

2. I love Mr. Edison! I don't know how the fandom seems to have come to the decision that Annie is a "Daddy's Girl," but I like it. If the "real" Mr. Edison turns out to be a jerk in the actual "Community", I might be a little upset.

Annie did mention both her mom and dad briefly in "Football, Feminism and You" calling them both bigots. Considering how much retconning the writers are doing on the characters I'm not sure it can be taken as canon anymore though.

Liked how you snuck in Jeffs middle name Tobias.

Annie did mention both her mom and dad briefly in "Football, Feminism and You" calling them both bigots.

Yeah. I've got an explanation for that, but I haven't gotten around to putting it in yet. And I agree about the retconning, though I'm sure things will settle down soon enough.

Liked how you snuck in Jeffs middle name Tobias.

Thanks. But, to be totally honest, I'd decided a while ago that Annie's dad is distantly related to Tobias 'Toby' ZIegler, former speech writer for President Bartlett, who was shown in flashbacks to be the son of an Orthodox Jewish mobster. (Do you ever wonder if the space in your brain where you store your fandom knowledge could be put to better use?)

lapacifidora October 8 2010, 00:53:53 UTC

Thanks. :D

1. I based Annie's explanation on what she said when she explained why she bashed Jeff's head into the study table. (And, annoyingly, what she said in tonight's episode about why she kissed Jeff. Gah, Dan Harmon.)

2. So do I. I'm not sure either why we've assumed Annie is a 'Daddy's Girl,' but I think it kind of makes sense. If the show!Mr. Edison turns out to be non-awesome, I think I'm going to be awfully disappointed.

flo_83 October 7 2010, 12:20:17 UTC

Loved this part. Annie's relationship with her father is so great that I will be really disappointed if in the show they are gonna show him and it's nothing like this LOL

lapacifidora October 8 2010, 01:09:53 UTC

Thanks. :D I know: I'll be terribly upset if Mr. Edison turns out to be a loser. I'll be equally upset if Mrs. Edison turns out to be some saint because that will mean Annie's behavior has no basis in her upbringing.

I loved the group talking about Annie coming back. Annie's awkwardness was just perfect.

Annie's dad is so awesome, I think if they ever introduce him on the show and he's not this awesome, I might be a little disappointed.

lapacifidora October 8 2010, 01:13:09 UTC

I thought Annie needed to give some sort of explanation as I'd been string it on for several chapters at this point.

It's really fun to write Annie's dad. I'm totally looking forward to writing the scene where Jeff and Mr. Edison meet. It's going to be fun. :D

Heh - Hahn and O'Malley - Grey's Anatomy

And "Going to the mattresses" made me think of You've Got Mail (even though I know it's originally from The Godfather).

And what you wrote about smelling snow a few chapters ago made me think of Gilmore Girls :)

I am absolutely loving this story, by the way - you know, in case you think I'm only reading for all the references, lol.

lapacifidora July 4 2011, 04:30:05 UTC

I will admit to having watched Grey's for the first three years, but I stopped before it became too ridiculous. (Which is maybe three years too long...)

Thank you: I kind of picked up on you liking the story itself, but it's still lovely to hear. :)

chocolatmoosepi July 4 2011, 05:50:23 UTC

I only caught a couple episodes originally, but I sort of ended up watching the first 6 seasons straight through last summer when I was bored out of my mind, lol. It's sort of one of those shows that I generally won't admit to watching, but enjoy to a degree. Certainly a guilty pleasure. After a couple weeks watching it, my mind was sufficiently melted, lol.
