Because she’s been under his skin for so long it doesn’t scare him anymore.

I love this line. Scratch that. I adore this line. This is just a great summation of Alex and how he's changed and who he is with Izzie now. That's exactly it.

(add to that that this is nothing like Alex Karev, or at least the man his reputation dictates he is, and these are the things that make him more intriguing)

Once again, you speak the truth. It's his moments of not-quite-Alex-like behavior that make him interesting and real and human.

I really, really love this fic. Not just because I love Alex and Izzie, but I love so much the way you write them together. It's like you're inside Alex's head and you're just writing down his thoughts, not speculating on what he might be thinking. And you write Izzie in a way I wish the show's writers would. You give her a reason for the insanity, and the cognition to know that it's not right, even if she doesn't particularly want to do anything about it. You write them so "real" (and yes, I realize that's not a great description, but I'm tired and barely coherent, so that's the best you're going to get LOL), and I love how they grow and learn to fit with each other and make the best of things.

*bows down in appreciation of your brilliance*

That first line is my fav from this fic actually.

Alex is always someone I've found easy to write -- I understand a lot of where he's coming from. It helps that he might just be my second favorite character on television. So it's nice to hear that from you :)

I'm glad you liked this; thanks for reading and reviewing!
