Excellent story. You've made me actually want to watch this show, something no other author has managed.

Thank you for sharing.

Thank you! It is a good show! Although Mattie is now gone... but I'm hoping she'll be back! *fingers crossed*

Glad you enjoyed this and thank you very much for commenting. : )

Review of Expanding Radius

I rarely leave reviews, but this fic was so good I had to. I am usually one of those Kalinda/Alicia shippers who does not multi-ship however when I saw this one it was so different I felt I had to give it a shot and now I am glad I did. I think this is the only Mattie/Alicia fic I have ever seen but you did an amazing job with it. I remember thinking the writers put too good of an actress in Mattie only to waste her. I love your writing you added a depth to Mattie that we never got on the actual show, and I love your Alicia because the character needs to make more lasting decisions on TV like she did in this fic. The true mark of a great story is when it ends you wish to spend more time with those characters, however, fic writers sometimes have a tendency to drag out a story just because they like writing it and fans like reading it but this was just the right length (even though I do wish to spend more time with your characters, ha). I loved reading this story and if you ever get the desire to write this pairing again I hope you do.

Thank you so much for the lovely comment. I too am quite disappointed they didn't do more with Mattie - but I'm also glad they didn't turn them into bitchy rivals. They could've been really interesting friends though... *sigh*

I am very glad you enjoyed this - I desperately wish someone else would write this pairing but the fact no one had gave me the impetus to do so and I enjoyed myself quite a bit doing so.

That said, I am partial to Kalinda/Alicia too.. (which hopefully came through a bit)

Thank you again for the wonderful comment - I am so happy to hear that Alicia and Mattie are alive and well in other people's minds. : )
