Oh, my gawd, do I feel dated. I had one of their tapes when I was a kid. *dies*

Ooooo, two chapters in one day! I've gotta be doing something right. *grins* Awesomely done, and I love seeing both sides of the phone conversation, even if I did want to poke Natalia a couple times with a clue!stick. Poor girl just does NOT know how to deal with what's happening, and you show it so well.

Don't worry, everyone did. Well, I didn't. I might be too young ;-) Or too British. I was into Take That.

Don't poke Natalia too hard! The girl's fragile.

Beautiful as usual. I am so happy that we got two chapters in one day! I can't wait for more! :D

Thank you! :-)

*sigh* you quote my fav. story, you reference your own brilliant fic (which, btw, i'd love to see a sequel to, if such a thing could exist) and there's 2 updates? i'm spoiled.

seriously. i am so loving the fact that they can still say i love you. and mean it.

and here's to hoping that shared tears can lead to some understanding.

(which, btw, i'd love to see a sequel to, if such a thing could exist)

Hmm. I think I'm done with that particular storyline really. I can't think of what a sequel would be about. No more angst to play with, you know? I did my happy ending too well.

i am so loving the fact that they can still say i love you. and mean it.

The way I see it that is the one thing Natalia is sure of. It's just that she doesn't know what she's going to do about it. She hasn't worked out what she can live with yet. Or live without, perhaps more importantly.

Thanks!

i just really love the world you invented with the memory loss... i'd love to see if those memories could somehow be regained, a little bit at a time.

as for angst... outside influences?

harking back to the current story, however, i wonder if it is from her mother that she learns how to live with her love... after all, its pretty obvious that the woman loved her husband deeply.

as for angst... outside influences?

Haha, I guess that could work but - as you've probably noticed - I'm far more interested in internal issues than external. But I know the audience is there if I ever change my mind. Thanks!

Two updates? YES!

The NKOTB reference had me in stitches. Do I dare confess that I was a fan? XD

More from the Velveteen Rabbit, yay!

I loved the phone call between Olivia and Natalia. Very sweet.

I hope Natalia and her mom can come to a greater understanding through their shared grief and tears.

I hope Natalia and her mom can come to a greater understanding through their shared grief and tears.

Hmm. I think it'll take a bit more than that. Because her mom's still a bitch, even if she is a little more human now.

Thanks!

I just want to give Natalia a hug. God.

You are killin' me here... and I love it.

wonkots42 May 16 2009, 23:18:47 UTC

I just want to give Natalia a hug.

Get in line. Thanks!

uselessmarks May 16 2009, 23:24:55 UTC

Hmmm, wonder if I can push my way to the front?
