Yay! "Iowa"!

Lovely story. I really enjoy the whole development from roommates to friends-plus of what seems, on the surface, to be an unlikely pair. :)

Oh this was fantastic. I love the buildup of the different relationships here, the tension (both sexual and not) and the way you've written Nyota's character feels very true to her. Great job!

thank you so much, i feel like i can never tell if i'm writing her well, so it's really good to hear you say i am. :"} thanks for commenting, i'm glad you liked the fic!

Ohhhhh oh oh, this story was so sweet. I love the slow build-up of Nyota's headspace, her personality, the way she changes as we go through the story. I loved the way you wrote Gaila, and the flashes of the other characters we see through Nyota's eyes. (Especially Jim. Sucker, who me?)

Also? Using a line from "Iowa" as your cut-tag was CHEATING. *sniff*

ahh thank you so much, this is such lovely feedback. :"} and yeah, i was thinking about what to title this, and iowa is (to me, anyway) one of the quintessential gay girl love songs, so it just seemed to fit. i'm not going to lie, once i settled on it i started having all these ideas for fics i could write as companions to this using the song as inspiration, so... this may become a 'verse at some point, lol. XD anyway thank you so much for commenting and i'm so glad you liked it!
