Thank you so much! I'm delighted right now, even if your comment confirms my complete and total failure at anonymity.

YES on the friending. That pretty much makes my day. :)

So if she's B1 am I B2?

Seriously this reads SO MUCH BETTER! Your hard work paid off in SPADES!

Um, I think you mean YOUR hard work. Becca, I am not kidding when I say that I reread the first draft of this story and was overwhelmed by how much better the finished result was. That sounds mad conceited, but I don't mean it that way! It's just amazing how much snappier and hotter it reads because of your criticism, suggestions, and attention. I know I have spilled all kinds of words on flattering you and your beta work, but you really are the best. That shit was a hot mess until you got your hands on it.

B1 (and yes, she jumped all over claiming that title) actually e-mailed me after this got posted, and was like: UM, DO YOU REALIZE THAT SOMEONE CUT THE WHOLE BEGINNING OF YOUR STORY OFF? And I had to explain that it was a strategic decapitation, lol. I don't want to marginalize her work as a beta - she grammar-checked the SHIT out of that thing. I was so freaking impressed. And kind of turned on. (yes, cruiscin_lan, I just macked on you in my comments.)

Hee hee hee!

BUT i'm FIRST ALPHABETICALLY!!!!! COME ONNNNNN!!!!! I WANNA BE B1!!!!!!!

I love that she e-mailed you all concerned! Did she like the revised version? ;)

Thanks for the praise, bb, but you're the writer. I just tweak!

Alphabetical order means nothing when someone can call FIRST instead!

Absolutely awesome. Tina/Santana is something I've never read, but your Santana was absolutely perfect and just like Tina, Kurt and any Glee character you write, perfectly in character.

I've always been Santana's bitch, but you've made me love Tina just that much more. Great, amazing job. :-)

I'm a bit late finding this fic, but I just had to comment. This is just gorgeous. Brilliantly in-character. REALLY hot. I keep re-reading it and keep loving it more.
