Eeek. Ohmygod. Wow. I'm terribly flattered that you think it's rec-worthy. I am rather proud of that one even if I'm not completely satisfied with the title.

(Really, though, I don't think I could have made the sex scene graphic. I kept tightly to Victoria's point of view for the whole of the fic and she doesn't have the mental vocabulary for four letter words.)

Anyhow, thank you so much for this rec!

[kindkit]

Oh, yes, good point about Victoria's POV in the sex scene. I wouldn't have mentioned the explicitness issue at all, except that many people do shy away from girlslash if they think there's going to be a graphic sex scene. Unfair, but true, and so I wanted to reassure nervous readers.

When I was re-reading the story just now, prior to writing up the rec, the ending made me get all teary-eyed again. Just so you know. :-)

*nods, nods* Makes sense. I don't always think about it that way, because I will read nearly everything, but it's sort of true that lots of people get skittish about these things.

I get this melancholy feeling at the end, too, because I don't know if Martha will find Victoria in the future. I mean, I hope she will, but there's a lot that can happen in forty years.

This was an amazing story. Thanks for the rec.

This is an awesome and lovely story - and once again one of my planned recs has been stolen ! (Is it the end of March yet?!)

[kindkit]

Oh dear. I know exactly how you feel, as other people beat me to a couple of my planned recs, too. I'm glad I was relatively early in the reccing queue--with three people reccing seven stories each week, a lot of the really best stories (especially in small niches of the fandom) may soon be taken.

It's true ! I will have to go and wander through Teaspoon again when I'm not trying to write 3 fics at once (don't ask !) and bookmark a bunch more - and hope not too many people find them first ! :D

I don't think I would have seen this one without the rec, and it was absolutely wonderful! Thanks for pointing me to it :)
