Okay, now I want to watch this show just so I can read this fic and be overwhelmed by the awesomesauce you're on.

I hope you don't mind I added you to my friends list. In the course of my checking out your LJ for yuletide I discovered you actually analyze and discuss Being Erica episodes, ha. I barely know anybody who watches the show, which I do, let alone actually has 'thoughts'.

:D Yay another BE buddy! *friends* "Analyze" is perhaps a bit charitable, but I do find it utterly impossible to stay quiet about this show, because there's just so MUCH in it, heart and soul and the fire of escapism and reality all at once.

I know what you mean *sighs* - there's just such a thin fandom out there... This is the one show I could get lost in, except that there's so little to get lost IN D: !

(And can I just say again, how utterly perfect your fic is? Just thinking about it I'm struck again by just how logical it is that when Dr. T went to 2019 he would have seen Erica, not just *known* she was fine, and everything that transpires 'after' that point still makes my heart pound and makes me grin like madcap :D:D:D )

PS - I meant to track you down and inquire, without being at all "write me moar!" - do you have access to Power Play? If no, or just for ease of pimping, they're on Youtube here.

You can't imagine how happy it makes me still to hear you loved it. I struggled so much with the idea of BE fic when I first drew your name, because there is so much complicated about it. At the beginning I thought even Power Play with my vague memory of the show would be easier, ha (I request it every year, but I never thought to get matched to write PP fic ( ... )

:D I have to admit, I felt pretty bad this year, because 3/4 of my requests are super, super hard to write. I gave Power Play a whirl last year to see if I could and I couldn't wedge Parker any nearer than heresay. I think the difficulty is Riley. Getting him on paper is just sooo not easy. Which is a large part of why your fic wasn't just LOVE but was EXTRA-LOVE - because he was there, the narrative core of the story, and he was still him but the damaged half of him and we got to peek through his eyes and yet there was still so much mystery, every time we got an answer there were just more questions about what was going on inside his head until it fell together at the end, for the audience AND ERICA as we find out that even though he was situated in the more vulnerable position at the end of the day he did know more than anyone else, which was particularly brilliant, because I absolutely obsess about being in the same emotional place as Erica and about the things Dr. Tom doesn't say and it's a testament to the strength of the ( ... )
