...;_;

It's a good ;_; though. Good Steph fics always make me go ;_;, just because there was so much she could have been (I ranted a little bit about it HERE, at the end of the only Steph story I've written). I like that Babs feels guilty about trying to dismiss thoughts of the two of them possibly having some sort of future, deliberately keeping herself at a distance from Spoiler.

I have to admit though, what I love most is the openness of the ending; I can easily see another one or two shorts in this bobbing up sometime in the future (I can hope, right? xD). I really, really liked this, and yay for the first fic ever written for me ^^

Also, "permutations," not "permeations." To permeate is to be diffused, whether through something or by itself. A permutation is what I assume you meant, transformation.

I'm very happy you liked it! I utterly fell in love with Steph, and I mostly try to stay in a warm fuzzy mental place where nothing terrible happened to her.

Well, I have ideas, but make no promises about future ficlets about these girls. I was surprised by how neatly half-formed ideas I'd had came back to the surface for this ficlet.

...And that is why good authors send everything to beta. *surreptitiously corrects*

Steph and Babs! rubynye January 25 2007, 15:25:12 UTC
You have BEAUTIFULLY delineated why Babs was so cold to Steph, and made it totally IC for that wonderful meddlesome woman.

Don't forget to post this to Batfic so you can get the praise you deserve!

*beams* I was actually really pleased with the parallels that emerged while writing this between Steph worries about Babs' future from One End, and this explanation of why Babs reacted to Steph the way she did.

Thank you so much! ♥

It's a pairing that really grows on you, isn't it? The dynamic fascinates me now, when before writing the first one I could barely picture them together. I'm really glad you enjoyed it! Thank you!

Thank you! Babs is a truly fascinating woman, and I'm glad I managed a good grasp on her.

*grins* No promises, but I might be persuaded to write the girls again in the future. I have endless amounts of fun with them. Thank you!
