Okay I haven't had a chance to read the shiny sparkly final version yet (STUPID WORK KICKING MY ASS SDSFFJKJHASD) but I just wanted to pop in and say yay, it's posted! Woo hoo!

::does a cheer for you::

Real feedback forthcoming.

Real feedback this time and let me just start by saying YOU WIN AT OFFICE FIC. Truly truly. This is just so entirely marvelous, there's not a false move anywhere with the characters, the setting, the pacing, the prose, it just all hangs together so beautifully and says so much about these people. And then of course the little details like Katy's teeth-showing mouth-open smile (which, yes, Amy Adams, exactly), and Roy shaking his brother by the neck, and of course you already know how I feel about the bathrobe belt simile and the LITTLE PIECE OF ONION. And the transition into Pam and Katy's conversation is handled with such incredible delicacy--do you know what I would give for your sense of pacing? Man. Anyway, it rocks--you win--love love--and you are never allowed to stop writing office fic, the end.

Ah, well, um. I've been trying to figure out a way around that, because I don't want to put my own stuff on a rec page; it would just be all weird. Might compromise and put a small link to my stuff, but definitely not as part of the recs.
