Awwww. This was really cute and sad. I like how you did this from Molly's point of view and had her take in everything, but not fully understand the situation.

Poor Mohinder. His feelings get forced out and now he had to hide them again :(

This was definitely and interesting story. Good job :)

Thank you, I'm very glad you liked it! :)

My first idea was to write something about Molly's feelings toward her "new daddies" v/s her loss of her real parents, but then it just happened to be more about the guys...

Yes, poor Mohinder... but of course, I think Matt will surrender to his love sooner or later ;)

Thank you so much for reading and commenting.

Sweet loveable story!

amles80 February 18 2010, 13:03:35 UTC

Thank you! I'm happy you like my fics :)

Awww, sweet but sad. I haven't seen any fics with Molly living with Matt and Mohinder for such a long time. I hope things work out for them! It was really nice to see something from her point of view, thank you!

Molly's point of view just "came to me", I'm always fascinated by the way a story is "born"... I'm glad you liked it! I have always thought that Matt and Mohinder are a perfect couple, so yes, things must work out for them. :) I guess I've just seen Matt as a guy who never realized before that he could be attracted to a man, but then...

Thank you so much for reading and commenting, it means a lot! :)

So cute! I can't wait to read the continuation... please?

amles80 February 21 2010, 19:55:09 UTC

Thank you so much! I'm actually overwhelmed that so many people commented on this one. I never thought of a continuation, I just wrote this without any plans... but it's very possible that I can come up with something. :)

"I wasn't born yesterday." Haha, too true. Matt's being silly: Of course Molly would understand if they were together. I mean...really...from her point of view, beyond the positive shift in her guardians' emotional state, what would the difference be?

And really, she's a child of - what? - the 90s? Born in this day and age, she's more likely to be gay than be afraid of gays.

Teehee. I'd like to think Matt had drawn himself some lovely prophetic pictures, and he's embarrassed because of those, not because of his attraction to Mohinder.

P.S. Hope you don't mind my commenting style. I just say what a piece makes me think/feel, instead of saying, "yay, great read, I loved it, continue, blahblah, generic response here" over and over again. ^^

amles80 February 13 2011, 18:16:41 UTC

Oh my, I absolutely LOVE your commenting style! what a piece makes the reader think/feel is exactly when we want when we write something, isn't it?! At least I think so. Because as much as I appreciate short enthusiastic comments (it's nice to know that someone reads what I write!) it's great to see something substantial.

And I agree what you say about Molly. Matt here is just not ready to admit to the truth yet... I had something slightly different in mind when I started this (to go deeper into Molly's feelings about her new life v/s her old life etc) but then it became this long-ish "how do Matt and Mohinder get together" story instead...

kidarania_nika February 13 2011, 18:26:09 UTC

Yay! It's good to know my style works for you! :D (I got cussed out for it once. I laughed at them for it, but it still makes me nervous when talking to authors I don't know.)

:D I like this better. Molly's feelings about her old life...well, it brings up a lot of conflict. While its good to deal with those issues, I enjoy seeing her happy again more.

Yes, I can see why that makes you nervous. But I can't see anything wrong with the way you comment - it's like Christmas to me! :D But I don't know, people react diffrently...

And now that we're talking about comment style, I'd like to point out that if ever you read something that you think is not so good for whatever reason, I'd love to hear it! I don't know why people are so afraid of criticism. Personally I would welcome some "con crit". I feel that if I get a comment that I interpret as negative/critical (not that it happens a lot; in my experience, people can say "yay I loved this!" but mostly without explanation, and if they don't like it they say nothing) I would like to understand why the person feels the way s/he does and it wouldn't make me angry. Because 1) we all have individual taste and 2) it makes my writng better if I'm told what's NOT working ( ... )
