I love the world you've created here! New York is still New York, but things world just a little differently. It's the kind of story that makes me wish that I had a Talent, too!

The first meeting/non-meeting between Neal and Elizabeth was perfect - a balance of destiny and anticipation.

And Peter, taking Neal's picture and putting it into his wallet...yum!

Saved this one for the weekend and I'm glad I did. Looks like it's going to be a fun ride!

I can't believe it took me thing long but this is finally the weekend when I'm gonna treat myself to this epic ♥

The first part is simply amazing. Your description of Peter in court was simply breathtaking, if I were standing, it would make me weak in the knees. This is an image that certainly does things to me :D

And then the wonderful first meeting between Neal and June, her accepting Neal for who he is, being a friend, that was so lovely.

The meeting between Neal and El- OMG, brilliant. At first I thought it was just Neal but then it became obvious that El was watching him, too. And they were both mesmerized by each other. Oooh, this is a beginning of a beautiful love :D

And I have to say, seriously, even reading a note from Kramer makes me cringe, I could heard that damn Petey in my head. The guy still gives me creeps :P

Yay, wonderful beginning \o/

I absolutely don't mean to be rude in asking but is there any chance this will be going up on AO3 or DW? I do most of my reading on an e-reader and the multiple parts make it a bit stickier. This looks very intriguing and I'm eager to give it a go.

You are fine in asking. I'm hoping to put it up on AO3 either today or tomorrow. I'll PM you when I do.
