Okay, my life at the moment is a whirlwind of people at home being sick (including me, unfortunately) and people at work being demanding, so I don't have time to properly read a 40K word story. BUT ack, this is the one that I really wanted to read when everyone was floating ideas for this year's BB. It'll be October, probably, before I get around to finishing this, sigh. But, I thought you might appreciate the pre-love :).

Dudegirl, when are you NOT sick?? :P Please be better. That's kinda way more important that silly bb's. I most definitely appreciate pre-love though, of course, thank you, and my October-self will most definitely appreciate love-love. It'll be like a birthday present to me! :) In the meantime, take care of yo'self, fool!

See, the (sort of) good thing about being sick and spending hours in waiting rooms is that I have time to read stuff that I've downloaded onto my ancient handheld device. (And I'm better now, thanks, if a little bleary-eyed

Not just novel-length, but novel-worthy too. How can you be so eloquent in a COMMENT? :P Jeez. Happy early-birthday to me, for realsies. It makes me all tingly.

And let's take a moment to rejoice in you writing something.

Okay. Good. Got it out of my system. So um, yeah. Thank you. Very very much thank you. Taking this much time to think about my fic and then write those thoughts out? It really means a lot!

And oh man, I wrote this to someone else, it's so true: writing Blind!Noah was so ridiculously fun. I don't know why, it was kinda surprising, but I loved doing it. Especially this Noah, who's had a few years to learn and deal and bring himself up to where he is now. SO. MUCH. FUN.

So often, we rely on visual cues to convey how a character fits into a scene or an environment. ohmygod YES. I didn't realize this when I started, but it did get hard sometimes! Like, you can't write "Noah looked at Casey" because he cna't. You can't write "Luke picked up the book" or "Luke frowned" because Noah wouldn't know that.

One of my favorite Luke/Noah stories ever!
