Oh, my.

This is truly amazing.

I mean, I love a good piece of Lincoln/Jane NC-17, but this is so much more than just sex - it's a perfect character study that's left me speechless with awe. Thank you so much for sharing it.

[abvj]

wow. *blushes* thank you so much for those kind words. I'm glad you enjoyed it!

What msgenevieve said. I'm even going to use the same icon. This is how I would imagine it to be if L/J ever got together for the first time.

The entire piece is wonderful but my favorite part is here: Lincoln’s hand reaches up and palms her face, softly, gently, such a sharp, glaring contrast to the fast, hard movement of their bodies. He wipes at her sweat-sheened face delicately and it is everything and nothing at once and it leaves Jane wanting. She moves away from his touch as if stung.

A long drug out moment of painful silence, of confusion, followed by a hard, open mouthed, bruising kiss. Jane’s lip finally splits open, the bitter copper taste and slight discomfort mixing with the almost sweet essence of them and it serves as another reminder of what this is and what this is not.
It sums perfectly the theme of the entire piece. This is a favorite.

I love it when people writer L/J.

oh, wow. Thank you! I love feedback like this and I'm so glad you enjoyed reading this. Hope you don't mind, but I added you as a friend -- we have A LOT of the same friends, fandom, and interests in common and I think we'd get along well.

[happywriter06]

Always happy to meet a new friend.

[abvj]

Yay! I love your icon by the way :)

Oh, so fun to read again, especially when Jane seems so unlikely to ever grace our TV screens again. I really, really like it, and I think the changes you made to it makes it flow perfectly.

I love it to pieces, just as I did when I first read it. I'm glad other's get to read it now! I'm going to pimp it at my LJ for sure!

*fans herself and tells the L/J plot bunnies to be quiet because I already have too many fics to write*

Thank God for fandom, right? I love Jane and I kinda wish she would come back -- just because her and Lincoln seem like such a good fit, you know? *sighs* oh, well.

And I hope you know that this probably wouldn't be up here if it weren't for you -- i'd probably have forgotten about it like all the other unfinished fics I have laying around.

Thanks again for the beta!

I really really like this. First of all *coughs* it's dead sexy, really.

'their breath mixing between them, hot and heavy' *flails*

Second because I really like Linc/Jane fic (I wish she would come back and save them all!). Third, I like the way you write. Thanks to Candy for getting you to post! Any more unfinished fics tucked away in there? ;o)

This did things to me! Thanks.

it's dead sexy, really.

I don't think anyone has ever called any of my fic sexy, and whoa, I think that's the biggest compliment I've ever been paid, so thank you. I'm glad you enjoyed this and thank you for the wonderful feedback!

[abvj]
