awww, this is amazing - it was so sad to think that Ray would have been doubting his ability to ever be a doctor again and you showed that all here - amazing stuff!

also, two prompt fics for me? i'm touched *smushes*

Yay! Yeah, Ray needs some cuddles. And it's not like he's the first character I've written who's lost a leg or two (he's the third, believe it or not. It just... keeps happening to them.)

Well, you're feeding right into my obsession, so... :)

Missed this pairing!

Would love to see the Halloween ep from Ray's point of view.

Thank you for a wonderful read!!

Thanks for the lovely comment!

I'd given up hope that there are still any ER fans around. :D

And I'll keep that prompt in mind. :)

There are definitely ER fans around! This was great. I'd love to read more. You get into Ray's head very nicely.

trovia December 7 2011, 21:31:10 UTC

Cool! Thank you. :)

I do have another ficlet coming up later this month. I've also written some other ER fic, though most of it was an X-Men crossover. Couldn't resist giving Ray a superpower. ;)

loved it! Every time I think of the fact that Ray/Neela ended up together, I just get a big goofy smile on my face, lol.

trovia December 7 2011, 21:32:08 UTC

Aww. :) But all the angst on their way there was what really made it worthwhile, right? :D

Oh wow. Love this. Once again, you leave me next to speechless.

trovia December 9 2011, 17:46:36 UTC

Clearly you must go and watch ER now. ;)

Kidding. I'm glad that you liked it, and it's cool that you read it.

Oh, Ray. This was so realistic, depicting his feelings about his situation well. Very nice use of the letters that he wrote to himself.

trovia September 7 2012, 15:09:32 UTC

Thank you! So few people read this fandom, it makes me double glad that you liked it.
